Harun Maruf on Twitter Democracy finally arrives in Somalia. Prime Minister Hassan Kheire resigned his post. He was unceremoniously relieved of duty in a no confidence vote that was not done properly or with existing rules. Somalia before would mean infighting, refusal to leave post, name calling, tribal positionings and vitriol. Salute to Kheire. He said in this video. I willingly resign to teach a lesson to Somalis. We are a people of the Democratic laws. I hereby resign willingly. No name calling infact gratitude to the chance given to serve somalis.
I nearly cried for this speech. I grew up with the civil war and warlords. Men who put them selves above the people. To see democracy take flight in Somalia like this brings tears of joy to millions of us somalis. Today we salute Hassan Kheire former prime minister of Somalia. No one died. No vitriol or tribal fights. Just a man who said thank you for the opportunity and now I must leave. Democracy is a beautiful thing. Why we at Average Mohamed Organization promote it. People’s power. I have never been prouder to call myself a somali than today. Finally DEMOCRACY
