“This token of support from the company is to add to all of your efforts,” he said.

Abdi-Shafi Ahmed Ali, the Chairman, receiving the contribution from Mr. Soofe, expressed his gratitude to the Group for the donation, pointing out that this was not the first time Dahabshiil contributed towards the development of the city’s education system and its other social welfare and infrastructure schemes.

Equally, other participants of the function, including religious scholars, civic leaders, members of the academia and traditional leaders all conveyed their pleasure in being part of an on-going drive to develop the educational, curricular level of the university, and how that could have proven an uphill task without the constant support of companies at the head of which was Dahabshiil.
