Only days after banning watching TV and taking away the sets and satellite dishes from Barawe residents,Al Shabaab's leader Godane has issued yet another decree and this time on the communication gadgets.

It is now outlawed to use  smartphones, Galaxy, iPhone, & blackberry. According to Al Shabaab, smartphones are spy tools & thereby orders cities(Barawe, CeelBuur, Eastleigh, Mombasa) under its authority to adhere the decree.

These measures comes at a time when US Navy Seal launched an attack in Barawe though unsuccessful but one militant was killed,later on KDF launched an alleged drone attack at Al Shabaab's training camp killing dozens. According to Al Shabaab,the CIA and FBI relies on the smartphones and the named communication gadgets to collect intelligence from them.

The punishment for disobeying the decree remains public beheading. Looks like Kabambe has a new market opening.
