Somalia is looking to learn from Türkiye’s experience to better fight al-Shabaab’s terror ideology in the communications domain, according to information minister of the republic.
Daud Aweis Jama, the minister for information, culture and tourism, said federal government is fighting terror groups on various fronts.
“We have the military front in which we are making some progress and then there is a financial front that we are trying to regulate,” Aweis told Anadolu Agency in Istanbul.
In Istanbul, he took part in the two-day 12th Conference of the Information Ministers of the OIC which concluded Saturday.
“The last front which is very crucial is about the ideology and that is supposed to be (spread) by using communication means,” added Aweis.
Meanwhile, the minister also held a meeting with Türkiye’s Communications Director Fahrettin Altun. “We discussed how the two countries can work together in the information domain,” he noted.
