SSC Khaatumo Administration is formed today on July 26, 2023

After the displacement of two hundred thousand families from the northern Somalia city of Lasanod, the forced closure of sixteen thousand businesses, the destruction of thousands of houses including luxury villas and the killing and the wounding of thousands of civilians by #Somaliland, #SSC #Somali Peoples form their own state government. It is official. #SSC #Khaatumo is an administration now.

It is with great jubilation for the now and hopes rooted in the arduous work for the future that I join to share this momentous and joyful day with #SSC #Khaatumo peoples and the Jamaahiirta of #SSC.

As many have, I would like to thank the 33-member committee and Garaad Jama Garaad Ismail for his bravery and determination in leading his people into this day. History is made today, and you are a major part of it.

To the #SSC #Khaatumo peoples, keep going and hold the blue flag. We are with you heart and mind. The road ahead is now clear, and the goal is to free the remaining pockets of the region from #Somaliland militias so that #SSC Peoples can live free and under a just government. A government that works for them and their interests.
