In April 2015 , Omer met in Nairobi with Foreign Minister of Kenya Amina Mohamed to discuss Somali business interests in the country . The officials touched on the license suspension of 13 Somali-owned remittance firms earlier in the month , which the Kenyan government had imposed in the wake of the Garissa University College attack . According to Omer , he pointed out that the suspended money transfer companies were run by taxpaying citizens of Kenya , so the governmental decree would most immediately impact the local Somali community . He also noted that the firms provided remittance services to individuals from several different nations . Additionally , Omer indicated that he and Mohamed agreed on these points , with Mohamed pledging that the authorities in Kenya would reconsider their decision
