I DON’T CARE TO WHOM YOU BELONG, BUT ABOUT WHAT YOU DO

Dear Citizen,

I do not care if my president, minister, director, lawyer, or service provider is hailing from Hawiye, Daarood, or anyone else as long as one is playing fair and square. A good government is one that enjoys strong support from all its citizens, with no nepotism, corruption, or preferential treatment- one person or situation should be treated in the same way that another person or situation is treated with equal fairness under the law,  a government that unites its people,  territory and good, credible and representative leadership.

A responsible government is one that abides by the law, upholds the constitution, and respects the will and the participation of all the people. The best government is one that enjoys the trust of its citizens.

Such a responsive administration would defend the rights of its citizens, enforce the law equally, protect its people from external and internal threats, preserve the integrity of the territory of the homeland, maintain peace, administer justice, foster social and economic developments and deliver public services, using best practices.
