This is a milestone achievement. Very soon, the Somali diaspora will be able to apply for a National ID at the Somali Embassy in the country where they live, or at the nearest country where Somalia has an Embassy.

Thanks to the @world Bank and @UNDPSomalia 4 the support.

Advice to Current Somali Politicians

Do yourself a great favor: protect yourself from the fate of former leaders (like the men shown in the attached examples) who, while in power, believed they were above the law and invincible.

Once stripped of the trappings of office, they ended up in jail, serving long prison sentences.

Stop secretly selling public lands. By doing so while in office, you are openly and plainly incriminating yourselves.

I could not be clearer than this.
