“Today it is not a matter of choosing whether we will be united together or breakaway into states, but it is the matter of reconciliation and treating all the civil war wounds to our people.” president Hassan announced on Sunday during a press conference in Garowe town, the capital of Puntland.
“I know that there are some people in parts of Somalia who feel the traumas left by civil wars. We have to come together and help out finalizing all these matters.” he added.
President Mohamud also acknowledged that the federal government needed to build its full and inclusive institutions as part of nation-wide recovery system.
“We let alone mention the incomplete provisionally adopted Constitution but also as well the federal institutions of the government.” President emphasized.
Touching on the accomplishment of federal system into the country, the president whispered that there were too many questions on the kind of the federalism that Somalia should maintain and how it should be taken into practice.
“There are some people who could not find the answers of these questions who then run into false claiming of that the government is opposing the federalism.” he noted.
