This kid insisted I take his picture while he was smoking. Many young men think smoking is cool and sadly so many of them smoke. I think that at least 70% of Somali men and boy smoke (don't quote me on this...it is just based on the number of people I am coming across). It worries me because there are no cancer treatment facilities here and if anyone has cancer, there is no way of diagnosing it as cancer. They just say that person died and it was their time. Somalia needs major public awareness campaign against smoking.
