Center for Governance Studies - Somalia @cgs_so

CGS expresses its deep concern over the communiqué jointly issued by Pres. HSHM& the four defectors from Somali National Salvation Forum The statement not only undermines national unity and reconciliation efforts but also risks deepening Somalia’s political and security crisis…

Justice institutions MUST play to end land grabbing not only in Mogadishu but also in FMS districts, and this is a call for urgent course correction. Office of the Attorney General @Somalia_AG should know exercising its power to prosecute is its primary tool. Yet, we see no…

The people of Somalia are betrayed when the very institutions mandated to protect them become silent enablers of injustice. @MoJusticeSomalia & the Office of the Attorney General have missed critical opportunities to prosecute land grabbers and protect victims. We need both…

Land belongs to the people not ministers or militias. In Somalia, public land theft is a quiet war, open/ shameless & protected. Communities are displaced while the powerful profit. Who benefits? Who suffers? Who will speak? #StopLandGrabbing #Somalia

Injustice fuels every Somali conflict. People resist not because they hate the state, but because it betrays them without consequence. When law means nothing to those in power, peace is impossible. Justice must come first. #Somalia #HumanRights #JusticeFirst

Somalia’s problems need somali solutions. Reject foreigners dividing loyalties Sovereignty isn’t negotiable. Our leaders must choose (Endless power struggles or a united future). FG/FMS/opponents talks need deadlines, not delays.The people demand solutions, not more communiqués.

FG Leaders must heal, not salt wounds.When speeches prioritize political point scoring over empathy, they betray the very 'dialogue' they claim to advance. Words can disarm or destroy, choose wisely. @UKinSomalia @US2SOMALIA @UNSomalia @HassanSMohamud @HESharifShAhmed

Somalis must reject from leadership anyone complicit directly/indirectly in gross human rights abuses, looting public resources, harming civilians, or committing crimes against humanity. #Somalia #Accountability #NeverAgain

The Somali National Salvation Forum urges an inclusive constitutional review process. Unilateral amendments by the FGS without consensus risk deepening the political crisis. 🇸🇴needs a nationally agreed electoral model, no one-sided elections. 🇸🇴 deserves free/fair& credible vote.

Somalia’s national consultation must not become a tool 4 consolidating power under a single political group. If the process is engineered 2 serve the interests of the ruling elite, it will destroy what little trust remains in the federal system & fuel long-term instability.

Co-opted civil society is more dangerous than corrupt politicians bcz it pretends2speak4 the people while serving power. What happens when CSOs chases proximity 2 power more than proximity to the people? @EU_in_Somalia @UNSomalia @US2SOMALIA @UNDPSomalia @UKinSomalia

True CSOs asks, Who’s missing? Who’s silenced? If you never ask those questions, you r not neutral, you r useful 2power. When government fails, CSOs must rise. When CSOs joins the failure,who is left 4 the people? @EU_in_Somalia @US2SOMALIA @UKinSomalia @UNSomalia @UNDPSomalia

Is the platform laid out by Pres. HSHM a genuine negotiation forum offered 2 the opposition&the FMS that withdrew from the National Consultative Council, or is it simply the FGS consulting with itself& its loyal supporters? @US2SOMALIA @UNSomalia @UKinSomalia @HassanSMohamud

Somalia’s future hinges on genuine national dialogue not political theatre. Exclusion, manipulation & party driven agendas will only deepen the crisis. it only risks&deepens political polarization, weakening state legitimacy, and setting the stage for further instability.

Somalia's peace & stability demands bold leadership. FGS should Prioritize NATIONAL UNITY. Initiate genuine consultation with FMS&opponents NOW. Show flexibility on outstanding issues. Compromise builds nations, not weakness. @HassanSMohamud @HESharifShAhmed @HassanAKhaire

Somali people deserve a NHRC that protects them,not one captured by those it is meant 2 hold accountable. We urge the international community 2stand on the side of H/ rights, democratic values&institutional integrity in Somalia @UNSomalia @US2SOMALIA @UKinSomalia @UNHumanRights

When a gov’t minister like Ahmed Fiqi incites against the opposition&the opposition itself is fractured, mostly serving UAE agendas, trading promises of “I’ll make you president/PM” what hope is left for Somalia’s oppressed people? Who truly speaks for them? #Somalia #Justice

The opposition should adopt a more principled, issue-focused posture that prioritizes the nation over individual interest &FG should remain open 2 engagement with all stakeholders while continuing 2 strengthen democratic governance @HassanSMohamud @HESharifShAhmed @HassanAKhaire

Somalia’s democracy cannot be built on character attacks, misinformation, or short-term political calculations. The Somali people deserve a responsible opposition that contributes to nation-building, respects democratic institutions, and advances policy-based dialogue.

Mogadishu is weeping: “What did I do to deserve an Al-Shabaab bombing&explosions?being the battleground 4 candidates backed by clan militias&SNA fighting each other on my streets? Why have I become the burden bearer for everyone? Maxaa aniga baaska&tuke Balcad iga dhigay?”
