Check FAQAbout Aden
I am a seasoned journalist based in Dadaab, Kenya, with extensive experience in the communication and media sector—particularly within humanitarian contexts. Over the years, I have contributed to respected media outlets such as Dalsan Media Group, SBC Somali TV, Internews, Radio Gargaar, VOA Somali Service, and Shabelle Media Group. My journey into journalism was never driven by the pursuit of fame, but by a deep-rooted commitment to serve as an independent voice and a watchdog for vulnerable communities. I have specialized in reporting compelling stories from the Dadaab refugee complex, focusing on issues that matter most to those often unheard or overlooked. My reporting is grounded in the core principles of integrity, accountability and truth, aiming always to inform, empower, and inspire action. I bring a multimedia skillset to the field. I am also a camera operator, photographer, scriptwriter, and video editor, capable of delivering impactful content across platforms. In an era where journalists shape the historical record, I remain committed to ethical, socially-conscious storytelling that amplifies marginalized voices and drives public discourse forward. I am open to collaborations and new opportunities to expand the reach and impact of meaningful journalism.
