Mooge Posted January 28, 2014 wonderful news walahi. women are the most productive in our people and they should be given high positions. abdiweli is married to an intelligent woman who is a professor of economics herself and she is in garowe right now building puntland. i think she had a lot to do with this list.

nuune Posted January 29, 2014 Just found out by telephone call that a lady who is a very close family member is appointed a minister, well done to you Anisa Abdulkadir Sheikh Nur for Minister, now xilkaaga ka soo bax. I am still AGAINST kumanaanka wasiir uu magacaabey Madaxweyne Gaas, but applaud how he included more women in there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar Posted January 29, 2014 Wasiiro magac u yaal ah. Waxaanoo wasiiro maxee qabanaayaan for a maamul gobol - all in the name of jufo walba la qanciyo. At most maamulkaas shan wasiir ka badan uma baahneen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DoctorKenney Posted January 30, 2014 This is good news to hear. Definitely a step in the right direction. There's plenty of competent women in Puntland who could serve their people well Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Holac Posted February 3, 2014 I applaud the decision to recognize Somali women's role in society and politics in general. It was long overdue. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samatar Rooble Posted December 27, 2014 Having more females in the cabinet doesn't necessarily mean development. Only a one that lacks brain-cells would think such a thing, but yes female involvement is a must. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
