Yesterday, I successfully defended my masterโs thesis. I am so excited to have completed my LLM in public law. It has been such a rewarding experience and I am grateful to all who were part of my journey.
Somalia ๐ธ๐ด Now presiding over the @UN Security Council for January, H.E. @AbukarOsman1 engaged in preparatory engagements with UNSG @antonioguterres last month.
We reiterate commitment to facilitating constructive & inclusive dialogue towards advancing global peace & security.
Sincere gratitude to all countries who stand with our sovereignty, unity & territorial integrity. Israelโs unlawful recognition of Northwestern region of ๐ธ๐ด as an independent State violates the UN Charter & AU principles, & is null & void
๐ must unite against these violations.
I was quoted by the international media @AJArabic on the local council elections in Mogadishu, discussing what the process entails, the challenges and criticisms it faces, and what it can realistically serve and offer.

The voter registration process can serve as a barometer of electoral health, offering a strong glimpse into election integrity, inclusiveness, administrative competence, and the likelihood of potential disputes.
In my new @somalipubagenda policy paper, โ๐ฉ๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ด๐ถ๐๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ถ๐ป ๐ ๐ผ๐ด๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ถ๐๐ต๐: ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐๐, ๐ฃ๐๐ฏ๐น๐ถ๐ฐ ๐ฃ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฝ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐, ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ฒ๐ป๐ด๐ฒ๐, ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ช๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฑ.โ I examine NIEBC's voter registration process and identify key issues and criticisms that may affect the local elections. These include the commissionโs neutrality and undisclosed funding sources, respect for voter freedom, the exclusion of certain districts and communities, and concerns about the integrity of the registration system.
The paper also captured some public perceptions from their experiences with the registration process, including forced registration, the accuracy of registered voter information, voter education, access to information, and levels of trust in the process. In conclusion, the paper presents policy considerations focused on legal, technical, and political dimensions for future processes.

H.E. President Dr. @HassanSMohamud has signed into law the Insurance (Takaful) Bill, the Income Tax Bill, the Revised Financial Institutions Bill, and the Revised Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing Bill today. These landmark legislations lay the foundation for transformative economic reforms in #Somalia, bolstering the financial sector, enhancing investor confidence, and driving inclusive economic growth that creates meaningful opportunities for the #Somali people.
This Morning my Law Firm has gone on record to watch brief for the Victimโs family in the recent case where a 17 year old girl was married off and burnt to death in her home; wajir county. The court has allowed an Application by the DCI to exhume her body for autopsy purposes!
Today, I stand once again on the frontlines where our brave heroes are making the ultimate sacrifice to free Somalia from the grip of Kharajite terrorists. This is a fight for our nationโs future which we must win. Thereโs no turning back. With Allahโs will, Somalia will prevail.
We once lived in a #Mogadishu where attacks and suicide bombings were alarmingly frequent, but that now seems to be a thing of the past, thanks to the current governmentโs efforts to secure the capital and take the fight to the extremists. Al-Shabaab is feeling the pressure and resorting to publicity stunts to create a false image of control over Mogadishuโfar from the truth. Somalis everywhere recognize their weaknesses and expect their complete defeat soon. Those amplifying its rhetoric are not merely misinformed but are actively undermining Somalia and its people.
Congratulates H.E Mahamoud Ali Youssouf -Djibouti on his election as the incoming African Union Chairperson.
