The reality you’ve been waiting for in England

According to the retrospective, Farrer was taken by a stranger woman from the Republic of Djibouti in Africa to England at the age of nine.

At that time, he was given a fake travel document with his current name, Mo Farah, but revealed that his birth name was “Hussein Abdi Kahin.”

Farah was “very excited” when a woman told her to “go to a relative in Europe”.

However, when he arrived in England, he recalled that he had torn a piece of paper with his relatives’ contact information in front of him and was told to do household chores and take care of his children if he wanted to eat.

“If you want to see your family, don’t say anything,” he said. “I locked the toilet many times and cried.”

Farah is said to have been cut off from the outside for the first few years. He showed great athletics talent at the school he was only able to attend at the age of twelve.

After that, he was protected by telling a physical education teacher regarding his situation, and he was brought up in a family home from Somalia.

“I still miss my true family, but from that point on, everything has improved,” he recalls.

In 2017, she was awarded the Knight’s title by the Queen for her contributions to the British sports world (November 14, 2017).

Running saved me

Farah has said he and his parents have evacuated from Somalia as refugees.

However, his parents have never stepped on the land of England, and his mother, along with his two brothers, lives on a family-owned farm in northern Somalia. Her father died in a riot when Farrer was four years old.

Farah has told the BBC that the reason for revealing the past this time is to let more people know regarding trafficking and slavery.

“I didn’t know that there are many people who have exactly the same experience as me. I want to tell you how lucky I was.”

“It saved me, and the difference was because I ran.”

Through this documentary I have been able to address and learn more regarding what happened in my childhood and how I came to the UK. I’m really proud of it and hope you will tune into @BBC at 9pm on Weds to watch. pic.twitter.com/rqZe41gFm8
