Cumar Artan ma gaarin #FIFAWorldCup oo keliya. Wuxuu taariikh dhigay isagoo noqday garsoorihii kubadda cagta ugu horreeyay ee Soomaaliyeed ee halkaas gaara, isla markaana ka mid ah garsoorayaasha ugu wanaagsan #Afrika. Guushaas cidina kama qaadi karto, wax kasta ha dhacaane.
Cumar, aad baan uga xumahay waxa dhacay. Waxaad gaartay heerka ugu sarreeya ee xirfaddaada, waxaadna dhiirrigelisay jiil dalka jooga adigoo halkaas gaaray. In lagaa hor istaagay fursaddii aad u qalantay ma beddelayso taas.
Tani ma noqon doonto halka ay ku dhammaato sheekadaadu. Dunidu way ku garab taagan tahay, waxayna kuu rajaynaysaa samir, adkaysi, iyo in aad mar kale garsoorto kulamo waaweyn oo caalami ah.
Waan ku garab taaganahay, Cumar.

As a World Cup host, the U.S. shouldn't be flippantly barring officials from entering the country to do their jobs.
It's terribly backward.
It's also counterproductive.
Global sports competitions should improve international exchange and relations, not the reverse.
@FIFAcom certified referee denied entry & barred from participating in the World Cup is deeply troubling.
Merit, professionalism, & fair opportunity should prevail over bureaucratic obstacles. We feel his pain and stand in solidarity with him.
It's embarrassing for the US to prevent a FIFA accredited Somali referee from entering our country. If we accept hosting the World Cup, we need to welcome teams, officials, and fans from all nations. This is the "world" cup - not the "European" cup!

1/1. Today, H.E. @AmbGamal held a productive meeting with H.E. Mehmet Fatih Kacır @mfatihkacir, Minister of Industry and Technology of the Republic of Türkiye, to discuss Somalia’s Industrial Parks Initiative and explore opportunities for enhanced bilateral cooperation.
African agri-food SMEs have a market of 1.4 billion people within reach. What they still need are the systems to make it accessible.
The AfCFTA Secretariat and the UK FCDO held a two-day strategic meeting on AfCFTA implementation and a new regional agri-food trade programme: customs, digital trade, value chains, SME support.
The agreement is in place. Implementation is the work that follows.
Retweet if you think agri-food is the sector that can most quickly demonstrate the value of the AfCFTA.

Historical fact:
Mogadishu was destroyed 35 years ago because politicians who claimed to represent the people refused to resolve their differences through dialogue.
After 35 years of bloodshed, have no lessons been learned?
In Addis Ababa, I had the opportunity to meet the Somali Ambassador, Abdullahi Warfa, and exchange views on issues concerning Somalia and the wider Horn of Africa. During our meeting, I presented him with my new book, Somalia: A State in Search of Exceptional Leadership, which reflects on the leadership challenges and state-building prospects facing Somalia today.
On this sacred occasion of Eid Al-Adha, we extend our warm wishes to all celebrating across Africa and beyond.
May this season inspire unity, solidarity, and shared prosperity for our continent.
Eid Mubarak. 🌙

Secretary-General H.E. Wamkele Mene set the tone:
"We want a united continent that approaches competition and law-related matters in an integrated manner."
The consensus is clear: harmonised frameworks, institutional cooperation, and coordinated enforcement are foundational for a single market that works for every African business and consumer.
