Somali women [Photo/ kenyatalk.com]
Garissa has people from different ethnicity in Kenya and other parts of the world.
However, most occupants here are the Somali born in Kenya and some in Kenya for businesses and other activities.
Somali women are known for their politeness and welcoming nature. They are known for their flowing desert clothing, and most effective of all, Islamic modesty. However, they are easily angered when you seem to cross their line. Here are best ways to apologize when you wrong them:
Expressing regret
It is good to show someone that you regret doing something wrong to them.
Somali women will love it and accept your apologies if you show regret to the wrongs you do.
They tend not to hold grudges, and they will forgive you and forget.
Accepting responsibility
This language spells out what was done wrong.
Taking responsibility means you did not know what you did was wrong and that you are ready to change never to repeat the same mistake again.
Stating plainly what you did will make a Somali woman take in your apology.
Making restitution
This one is all about how to make up.
If the mistake you did can be rectified, ask her what you can do to make up for her.
She will be glad you are concerned and ready to undo the mistakes you did.
She will forgive you and guide you in the best way to undo all your mistakes.
Requesting forgiveness
This is where forgiveness has to be requested before the apology is seen as being sincere.
Asking for forgiveness means you feel bad that you are not in good terms with her.
If she forgives you, it’s when you will have to apologize for the wrong you did to restore the peace and undo your mistakes.
