The multinational money transfer corporation, Dahabshiil, led by Somali multimillionaire Abdirashid Duale, has voiced concern about the worsening conflict in Sudan.
The conflict is putting the country’s fragile economy at risk of collapse.
The Duale-led group is concerned about the situation in Sudan and how it might affect its clients and customers who have utilized its remittance services. The company has a significant presence in Sudan.
Duale and Dahabshiil have played a vital role in assisting communities impacted by the severe drought in the Horn of Africa by facilitating remittances from the diaspora.

Duale, the CEO of Dahabshiil, mentioned that the organization had been highly involved in Sudan and other parts of Africa, particularly during this period when the Horn of Africa has been suffering from its worst drought in 40 years.
With the ongoing escalation in Sudan, the company is deeply concerned about the impact it could have on its customers and clients. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has cautioned that the conflict between the opposing factions could spread beyond the region and cause more violence.
Secretary-General Guterres expresses concern that the ongoing conflicts in Sudan could escalate into a catastrophic situation. He urges the involved parties to resume negotiations to find a peaceful resolution.
Dahabshiil is setting a great example of corporate social responsibility in the region by showing its dedication to aiding those impacted by disasters and conflicts.
Notably, prominent journalist Abdisalam Hereri recently attested to Dahabshiil’s critical role in assisting students, Sudanese, and foreigners fleeing from the conflict to access money transfers for transport and food in the Somali city of Hargeisa.
Dahabshiil’s philanthropic contributions have also been significant in recent times, with the corporation donating millions of dollars in response to disasters and tragedies in Turkey, Syria, and Mogadishu.
