Description

All Mr. Mohamed wanted was a job and a marriage.
A 22-year-old Somali farmhand, Mr. Mohamed, skeptically retorted, "is that right?" when Al Shabab recruiters sought to convince him that the defence of Islam needed him.
"What I really need is a job and a wife,' Mr. Mohamed added.
The farmworker was persuaded when the recruiters for one of Africa's oldest jihadist movements promised to find him a wife.
