Returning to Mogadishu to rebuild the dairy industry

Recent weeks have seen protests over an uptick in violence in Mogadishu. Despite this, people are continuing to return to the capital and invest in the recovering economy.

After 25 years living in the UK, Adbukadir Mohamed Salad has come back to Somalia and is determined to help rebuild the country's dairy industry. He has opened Irman Dairy - one of the first dairies to operate in Mogadishu since violence broke out in the 1990s.

However, security isn't the only challenge he faces, as he explains to Newsday's Sharon Hemans.
