Had a productive meeting with Dr. Vivian Balakrishnan, Singapore’s Foreign Minister. We explored ways to build lasting bridges between our two nations through people-to-people engagement, trade, knowledge-sharing and opportunities that connect our communities. #Somalia #Singapore

Somali people deserve leaders with courage & solutions. What we see from the opposition is nothing but negativity & smear campaigns. No alternative vision, no real proposals. Only noise. Somalia cannot be held back by such reckless politics.

The Horn of Africa is at a crossroads. Extremism, drought, conflict and global trade disruptions demand cooperation, not fragmentation. Somalia & the United States can and must stand together to defend stability, democracy, and shared prosperity. 🌍🇸🇴🇺🇸.

Somalia’s journey has been defined by resilience, but also by systems that excluded the people’s voice. Today, reforms give us a real choice: keep the old ways of elite bargaining, or embrace universal suffrage & a truly representative future. We must choose progress.

Honoured to represent President @HassanSMohamud at the joint #EAC–#SADC Heads of State Summit on the situation in Eastern DRC. Somalia stands with our African brothers & sisters in pursuit of peace, stability, and regional solidarity. #Somalia #DRC #AfricanUnity

More than a million citizens have taken the first step toward shaping their future by registering to vote. These aren’t numbers; they are neighbors, teachers, shopkeepers, and young leaders. Blocking their voice is not just wrong; it’s a betrayal of Somalia’s democratic promise.
#Somalia’s President @HassanSMohamud has received a voting card today as the fifth round of talks between him and the opposition alliance is scheduled for tomorrow, while the election process is among the issues the two sides disagree on.

Somalia stands at a crossroads. Decades of instability & elite-driven politics have kept ordinary citizens on the sidelines. Today, we have the chance to change course; towards a future where every Somali can choose their leaders through One Person, One Vote. #Democracy #Somalia.
Today, I proudly received my voter registration card,a milestone reaffirming my unwavering belief that direct elections are the way forward for 🇸🇴.This is not just a card; it’s a symbol of our shared commitment to building a democratic country where every citizen’s voice matters.

Articles like @Telegraph’s don’t just misinform — they endanger lives. Painting Somalia as on the verge of collapse undermines public morale, confidence, and emboldening violent extremists. Somalia calls for responsible journalism that reflects both the challenges and progress.
As al-Shabaab make sweeping gains across Somalia, in the capital, Mogadishu, some ask if they are next.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Ms. Aisa Kacyira, Assistant Secretary-General & Head of @UNSOS_. A dedicated partner to Somalia, she worked tirelessly to strengthen our security forces & advance peace. Our prayers are with her family. May she rest in eternal peace.

Sool and Sanaag have long suffered from insecurity, political limbo, and extremist exploitation. Establishing a legitimate FMS provides a framework for governance, development, and security coordination a pathway to stability in a region where neglect has only empowered Al-Shabab.

New North-East state is not about fragmentation it’s about inclusion. Lasting national unity comes through fair political representation, not imposed control from regional power centers. Recognizing Noth East state empowers local voices and strengthens the Somali federal system.

A great milestone for Somalia’s democratic journey. Today, Presidents of South West and Galmudug queued up in their cities to register as voters. This isn’t just symbolic, it shows a new political culture: humble, inclusive, and people-driven.🇸🇴🗳️

Dear Abib, you have the constitutional right and responsibility to investigate any official conduct you believe to be unlawful. If you possess credible evidence, I urge you to take the legal path. Personal attacks may gain retweets, but they will never build a stronger Somalia.
@Abdikarindahirr How can a man whose own signature is linked to visa fraud, human trafficking, and backdoor consular deals now stand before the Somali people and lecture us about “improving the credibility” of our passport? The height of hypocrisy is when the face of documented abuse of Somali.

Somalia expresses its full solidarity with the Government and people of Qatar following the unjustified Iranian aggression. Any threat to Qatar’s sovereignty is a threat to regional stability.

Opposition isn’t about outrage, it’s about ideas. A credible opposition engages government directly, challenges constructively, and proposes solutions. Not everyone with a press release or a viral tweet represents the people. Leadership requires presence, not just protest. #Gogol.
