Why is it better to launch a spaceship from near the equator?

Obviously you guys missed the sarcasm in what I wrote. Considering the stability of Somalia or the lack thereof it's a pretty big gamble to invest our first space launch in a place like that. And since it's outside our country we'll have less control of what will happen there.
I do not believe this investment is a smart initiative.
