MOGADISHU (SOHA) – A Turkish-based aid agency built an educational complex for orphans in Somalia, according to a statement on Tuesday.

A primary, middle and high school is in the 2 million lira-worth (nearly $380,000) complex, which was built with the help of a benefactor, said Mehmet Cengiz, head of the association at the opening ceremony of the complex.

“We hope that this facility will make a very significant contribution to the development of the brotherhood between Somalia and Turkey,” Cengiz said.

During the ceremony, Sheikh Mahmud Yussuf, mufti of Buuhoodle, said his prayers for the Islamic world, Turkish people and President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
