The Mayors of Somaliland Towns Pictured Together
By M. A EGGE
The local government forum of association of national municipal mayors has elected the Hargeisa Mayor Cll. Abdirahman Mohamud Aidieed (Soltelco) as the new chairman of the organization for the next five years.
Lasanod Mayor Cllr. Abdiqadir Jama Salal was elected the Secretary whereas his Borama counterpart Cllr. Suleiman Hassan Haddi was made the Vice Chairman.
Eleven mayors from the major towns in the country were at the meeting which was graced by the attendance of Defense Minister Hon. Ahmed Haji Ali Adami and his cabinet colleagues, the Honourables Osman Abdillahi Sahardid and Hon. Ahmed Fahiye Mirre who are the state Ministers for finance and education respectively.
The Sanaag regional governor Ahmed Muhummed Geele whose town hosted the large gathering, for the first time outside the city, depicted it as a historic event.
Formation of mayors association does not make any sense. What makes sense is what they do for their people and country. Improvement of public service. town planning, engagement of works ethics etc , these are what all people would be proud of.
Good point
