556 Just a few update from Mogadishu. The last few weeks, a couple of video journalist and photojournalist have been refused entry in Mogadishu reason being? The ministry of information offices is asking foreign journalist traveling to Mogadishu to register and clear with them in advance before traveling to Mogadishu so that they can be accredited to work in Mogadishu. Put in mind that the only way to be accredited is through Somali embassy abroad and a fixer in Mogadishu who will work through your paper work with the ministry of information and also please do request a copy to be faxed to you before departing to Mogadishu. Also if you’re traveling to Mogadishu to cover the peace keeping mission, it’s also really important to register with AMISON Peace keeping forces offices in Nairobi and also get accredited by the ministry of information offices in Somalia or any Somali Embassy abroad and they will facilitate and also give you advice on your entry into Mogadishu. 2 2009-10-31T10:02:49Z 0 2009-10-31T11:33:04Z true 30513 false 1379 2009-11-02T01:47:59Z Mogadishu true 2010-04-30T00:00:00Z false advice-to-journalist-wanting-to-travel-to-mogadishu 1 2009-11-02T01:47:59Z 30420
