Juba Delta/Estuary

Somalia / Jubbada Hose / Kismayo /

This is where the Jubba river links to the ocean. In the winter (the dry season) the river is dry. Drought engulfs the land. Life stock dies. And humans face shortage of food and water in some cases. In the spring (the rainy season) streams of water over flows the river, destroys every thing in their path, including farms, houses, and in some cases human lives.

There is simple solution (though costly) to this problem.... to be cont. as the facts on ground permits.
