“I am deeply saddened that the outgoing president, who is surrounded by African tanks, has told people that there is an uprising going on in Somaliland,” said Minister Saleban Ali Koore.

Minister Koore said that the international community has recognized the existence of the people of Somaliland and pointed out that they have achieved a lot.

“The world understands that the people of Somaliland are a nation that guarantees democracy and existence, ”said Kore.

“The people of Somaliland are fully aware until the day the 100 Men in room elected him he directed nothing but venom and hostility towards Somaliland. “said Information Minister Suleiman Ali Kore.

Minister Kore’s statement came after President Farmajo at the June 26 celebrations said that a unity uprising was taking place in Somaliland.
