-He describes it as height of naivety that toddlers would even cringe upon
The Somaliland Minister of Information, Culture and National Guidance, Hon. Ahmed-yasin Sheikh Ali Ayaanle has strongly slammed the intention of Somalia’s Hassan Sh. Mohamoud assumes that he has the ability of dishing out Somaliland’s sovereign territory anyhow.
He at the same time took a swipe at the Puntland administration’s foreign secretary for repeatedly insinuating that Somaliland is al-Shabaab, whereas they have been working with them (Somalia) in cahoots all along.
Following a report revealed by Semafor that Hassan Sheikh wrote a letter to US President Donald Trump beseeching him not to recognize Somaliland hence in return he would “gift” the latter with Berbera port, that friends and foes found the Mogadishu brand of political diplomacy as not only wanting, but confounding.
It is in this connection that the minister retorted to, describing the letter as “height of naivety that toddlers would even cringe upon”, as he held a presser to address the matter.
He pointed out that the notion of the idea floated was in itself an abuse to the integrity and intelligence of the US who have a working relation with Somaliland as depicted in the USA’s own constitution- The Somaliland Act- as regards its own foreign affairs.
The minister observed that whenever Hassan Sheikh perceives that the International Community warms up to Somaliland’s essence, he always goes berserk and throws tantrums hence acts erratically.
He made it quite vivid that as concerns the nation’s sovereignty, it was only incumbent upon to chart its destiny. He also underscored the fact that Somalia has no say whatsoever about Somaliland’s conviction as to have re-asserted its independence.
He reminded the Puntland’s foreign affairs official who has been constantly depicting Somaliland as a terrorist haven that it was his state in particular and Somalia at large who have all along been abetting and working in cahoots with the al-Shabaab, Daish, ISIS, pirates and terrorists.
He observed that Somaliland’s territorial waters have not had nor witnessed even one single case of piracy.
Minister Ahmed-yasin called upon all Somalilanders in the Diaspora to be their nation’s ambassadors hence impart Somaliland’s essence, entity, aspirations and dreams to the rest of the world at all times.
