Sovereignty isn't defended by media words while enemies are dividing #Somalia & shaping reality on the ground.

Yesterday #Cirro engaged 🇮🇱. Today Hargeisa–Tel Aviv direct flights are discussed. Tomorrow more moves, while 🇸🇴 responds with words only.

What a strategic failure?!

#Africa stands with #Morocco 🇲🇦 because the Atlas Lions carry the pride of a continent. Tonight, when Morocco takes the field against Brazil 🇧🇷, Africa is represented. 🦁🌍

Calling out Trump’s disgusting bigotry. Never let it become normal.

Premier Eby reacts to the “heartbreaking” story of a Somali World Cup referee who was refused entry into the United States:

“In British Columbia he’d be considered gold, not garbage.”

[David Eby @Dave_Eby]

Mr. Artan would be welcomed and celebrated in British Columbia for what he’s overcome and where he is today. Let’s have him referee in Vancouver.

🏆 Referee announced for 2026 #SuperCup!

We're pleased to share that Somali referee Omar Artan will officiate the highly anticipated match between PSG and Aston Villa in Salzburg.

Referee Omar Artan awarded $50,000.

Galmudug presidential candidate Liibaan Ahmed Hassan showed strong backing, granting him $50K in solidarity after the incident he faced in the U.S.

A clear signal of support and recognition. 💪🇸🇴

[Abdirashid M. Hashi @MrDuqa]

استقبال حافل من الجماهير الصومالية للحكم عمر أرتان بعد عودته إلى بلاده إثر منعه من دخول الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية للمشاركة في كأس العالم 2026، رغم حصوله على تأشيرة سفر سارية المفعول. ويعد عمر أرتان من أبرز الحكام في القارة الإفريقية، حيث اختير أفضل حكم إفريقي لسنة 2025، كما أدار مؤخرا نهائي دوري أبطال إفريقيا، مؤكدا مكانته بين نخبة حكام القارة. وقد حظي باستقبال الأبطال في مقديشو تقديرا لمسيرته المشرفة وإنجازه التاريخي كأول حكم صومالي يتم اختياره للمشاركة في نهائيات كأس العالم.

[Omar Artan Fanpage @OmarArtand1]

I am deeply grateful for the overwhelming support, encouragement, and kind messages I have received from people around the world. Your solidarity has reminded me that football unites us beyond borders. Thank you to everyone.

🇸🇴 Somalis often demand fairness abroad while denying it at home via nepotism, discrimination & unequal opportunity.

A hard truth: talent, hard work & global recognition mean little without strong institutions, equal citizenship & national standing.

With #OmarAbdulkadirArtan ✊🏽

[Bashir Qaman✍️ @BashirQaman]

🇸🇴 No nation earns respect abroad while remaining divided at home.

A society’s strength is built on justice, equal dignity & treating its people fairly—first internally then externally.

When #Somalia restores its internal unity, its national image & global respect will follow.

What an absolute disgrace. A FIFA-certified referee being denied entry to the United States purely because he is Somali.

The World Cup is meant to bring people together. This is racism, plain and simple. Shameful.

I had a phone call with the Somali international referee, Omar Artan, who is unable to participate in officiating at the 2026 @FIFAcom World Cup, and I shared with him our feelings regarding the challenge he has faced. Omar is a symbol of our people and country's great potential

[Abdirashid M. Hashi @MrDuqa]

H.E. @M_Farmaajo: "Khadka Taleefanka waxaan kula xiriiray garsooraha caalamiga ah ee Soomaaliyeed Cumar Cabdulqaadir Cartan oo laga reebay ciyaaraha Koobka Adduunka ee 2026, waxaanna la wadaagay dareenkeenna ku aaddan caqabadda uu la kulmay.

Cumar oo ah garsooraha ugu fiican Afrika 2025, waxaan ku bogaadiyey dadaalka uu ku bixinayo matalaadda Qaranka Soomaaliyeed iyo sida uu uga qeyb qaadanayo muujinta kartida iyo dhabar adaygga dhallinyarada Soomaaliyeed oo duruuf kasta kaga gudba samir, dadaal iyo hal abuur.

Duruufta ku gedaaman dhacdadan waxa ay dadka Soomaaliyeed ku baraarujinaysaa in wixii inooga xumaada dawladnimada iyo siyaasadda ay saamayn toos ah ku yeelanayso qabka qaranka iyo shakhsiyaadkeenna qiimaha leh.

Shacabka Soomaaliyeed waxaan ugu baaqayaa in ay u kacaan garab istaagga halyeey Cumar, anigoo ka rajaynaya bulshada caasimadda in ay si weyn u soo dhaweeyaan marka uu dalka ku soo laabto."

🇸🇴 Somalia's political tensions reflect a deeper divide as FGS & opposition disputes dominate the agenda.

A way forward requires Somali-Somali talks on key issues, incl. a consensus based election.

🇸🇴 stability depends on constitutional dialogue not foreign mediation.
