African delegations have been touching down at an airbase outside Washington D.C., ahead of this week's U.S.-Africa Leaders Summit. President Joe Biden is expected to announce support for the African Union's admission to the G20 as a permanent member
@Abdirahmn_Moham What sort of stuff do you eat when you visit an Izakaya? I was in Tokyo for a week when I used to work for Sony Ericsson in 2009. I struggled with food. I rembr eating smelly fish and a lot of white rice and miso soup. Don't miss the strict etiquette & rules of everyday life.
@DrJPPham @amisomsomalia The pres. election will not happen next year. @musebiihi has been given an (illegal)extension for 2 yrs and will attempt to stay for the full 2 yrs & the govt has said it is severely short of funds to carry out just one election (two are scheduled). The govt is also $45m in debt.
Somaliland government should prepare and put there troops in high alert the relation between Somalia and Ethiopia -who is ethically compromised and connot be trusted right now- is a critical threat to the democratic of Somaliland.
This is how Hargeisa in Somaliland would look in the decades to follow, with an exploding population but with an economy and government that lags far behind. The work should start now on turning things around before it is too late.
@Hassangallaydh He needs 22 cars to pick him up from the airport and roadblocks as though this is Amisom and Shabaab occupied Mogadishu. Waste of tax payers money.

Looks like an SNM commander is being escorted in 1991 after tense negotiations, not a President being escorted in 2022 after returning from a trip abroad.

@mboqore1 @GuleidJ@khadarlooge Somaliland is truly becoming a broken country. Behaviour such as this has been normalised. Govt needs a clean up and officials who talk like this, suspended and thrown in the dustbin.
@FaqiAlis Seen some pictures of recent developments and have been impressed. I hope they focus on city planning for now & the future, because if they don't and the city grows, there will be problems like in Hargeisa. Don't allow it to be turned into a slum like many other Somali cities.
The anti-democratic events of this year played a part in their decision. The cancellation of the Pres election, the illegal term extension, the mass arrests of journos, opposition politicians, citizens & clan chiefs, shutting TV stations, suppressing protests & killing protesters
The #Somaliland government has not been invited to the U.S.-Africa Leaders Summit. Somaliland is a beacon of democracy and a security actor for global peace.
I hope the United States will invite Somaliland's government to a summit next year.
