Prime Minister @HamzaAbdiBarre received Somali international referee and CAF Referee of the Year Omar Artan at his office, praising his high spirits.
The PM encouraged him to continue his career and take Somalia to new heights.
I told our Somali Referee Omar Artan that while his World Cup officiating dream may have been delayed, it has never been diminished. Long before a ball is kicked, he has already won the hearts of millions and secured his place in history.
Omar Artan has done more than unite the footballing world, he has ignited hope in every child who dares to dream beyond the horizon. Dreams may be deferred, but they are never defeated.
I extend my deepest gratitude to FIFA and CAF for recognizing and believing in his talent, integrity, and dedication throughout the years.
For a lifetime, Omar carried a whistle not as a symbol of authority, but as a commitment to fairness, justice, and the spirit of the game. He devoted himself to ensuring that football was decided by merit, yet fate denied him the stage he so richly deserved.
Today, I had the honor of hosting Omar Artan, an icon, a role model, and living proof that true greatness is not measured by the matches you officiate, but by the lives you inspire.
Omar's journey reminds us all that character outlasts circumstance, and that those who stand for fairness ultimately leave the deepest legacy
A truly emotional and proud moment. For me, voting for the first time — and for Mogadishu to vote again after 57 years — marks a powerful return of the people’s voice. Today is about dignity, participation, and hope for our city’s future.
As you celebrate 62 years of independence and honour the heroes and heroines who laid the foundations of your Republic with courage and hope, #Somalia stands with #Kenya as a neighbour and partner in the spirit of friendship and shared progress. Happy #Jamhuri Day, Kenyans.
Warm congratulations for the @SNAForce officers, deputy officers, lieutenants, gunners, all different parts of the Somali Armed Forces and their families on the occasion of the 64th anniversary of the founding of the Somali Armed Forces on April 12.
Thanks @USGovernment20 for being with us and recognizing the sovereignty & territorial integrity of the Federal Republic of Somalia within its 1960 borders.

Today, I had an incredible visit to our National Museum accompanied by my colleague Deputy PS of the OPM, @FadumoSomali. We were blown away by the talent & creativity of the young Somali artists who showcased their art exhibition. Their work is truly remarkable & an inspiring.
