Why are you lying about Mogadishu and who paid you for your Lies
Натсистой аром тра бояд мегойдан твар
You are a two-faced person who, when you're live, claim that you experienced something good, but when you're making a report, you talk about past issues that no longer exist in the city.
i cant wait to never go to somalia!
I grew up in Khartoum. So much of this video reminds me of that time. Nice vid Drew. ❤
They could have helped the people of their country rebuild, instead they decided to build a giant mosque..
Thanks, Drew! You almost disappointed me at the start of the video, but I’m glad you came around. Hopefully, your next visit will be even better. We’re no longer the most dangerous city. Mogadishu is changing and warmly welcomes you and anyone else who wishes to visit. And next time, hopefully, you’ll be able to explore all of Somalia.
Stop lyin our contry is out of trouble now there is peace
Why was once a peaceful country gone down like this,what happened? Who was involved and why?? This is the question we should be asking to prevent such things happening to other peaceful countries.
no like ''YOU HAVE TO'' but question could u ever if u manage to get cross the border do a ''what 1 week in Belarus tought me about their country''? (im from there and hope u could once do that)

Next anaa ku dili doono
You liar 🤥……Mogadishu Is safest place in Africa
2:48 – Best beach in the world as said by Drew
Let's bluntly accept it: With the existence and patronage of WARLORDISM and persistent ANARCHISM, there is NO HOPE for permanent PEACE, ORDER & PROSPERITY in this country!
The title of this video is just a clickbait, completely unnecessary and untrue. According to statistics “ the world’s most dangerous cities are Tijuana, 100 homicide cases per 100,000 people. Do better @drewbinkey
Somaliye ninkan wadanka muqalda xun ka gudbinayo hala iskaqabto
Well best documentary I've watched this year.
Many people arguing we should watch the video!!! The thumbnail is enough to portray everything — this isn’t fair and is not based on any statistical fact. Mogadishu is even safer than many cities in the US. It’s just horrible how he just sneaks in to the country and takes few shots here and there and boom claims ,” I went to the most dangerous city …”. Also to the Somali contractors taking advantage of visitors, selling them horror stories just to charge more money, shame on you!!!
Awesome video / documentary drew ! You are a brave man
does he know what ajoos means😂😂😂
The title is soo weird u been to Somalia before now all of sudden it’s dangerous country alot countries are not save stop lying for views every time u don’t have good intentions anyways it’s stupid
Right is safe ❤❤❤
Bro literally went to the far cry 2 map
This kind of title is simply unacceptable — it’s fear-mongering and unfairly damages the image of Mogadishu.
Labeling the city as “the most dangerous in the world” is not only an exaggeration, but a harmful one that ignores the complexity, beauty, and resilience of Somali people.
The fact that 6 soldiers escorted you doesn’t prove chaos — The armed escort wasn’t necessarily about safety — it’s just how the group that received you operates to make money. This does not reflect the real situation in Mogadishu or how most Somalis welcome guests.
Chasing views through negativity does not reflect the truth about Mogadishu or its progress. You may have gained attention, but at the cost of dignity and accuracy.
What you’re doing spreads discouragement and misrepresentation. Honestly, with this approach, you did not deserve the warm and respectful welcome you were given. Somalia welcomed you with honor — and you responded with distortion.
