Today, the Republic of Somaliland celebrates a defining moment in its democratic journey with the inauguration of H.E. Abdirahman Mohamed Abdilahi (Ciro) as the newly elected President and H.E. Amb. Mohamed Ali as Vice President. This significant event also marks the conclusion of the leadership of H.E. Muse Bihi Abdi, whose term came to an honorable close on 12th December 2024.
The peaceful transfer of power underscores Somaliland’s steadfast commitment to democracy, stability, and good governance. As President Iro and his administration assume office, the nation looks forward to a new chapter filled with economic development, strengthened international relations, and a continued pursuit of global recognition.
Mr. Abdikarim Abdi, veteran Somaliland International Sovereignty Campaigner, expressed his appreciation and support, stating:
“I welcome and extend my heartfelt congratulations to the incoming President, H.E. Abdirahman Mohamed Abdilahi (Ciro), and Vice President, H.E. Amb. Mohamed Ali. I also commend the outgoing President, H.E. Muse Bihi Abdi, and his cabinet for the remarkable and outstanding work they have done, including the preparations for the handover ceremony and ensuring a free and fair election.”
This remarkable occasion serves as a testament to the resilience and unity of the people of Somaliland, offering a beacon of hope and inspiration in the Horn of #Africa. Under the new administration, we remain optimistic about building a future defined by prosperity, progress, and peace.
