Tacsi iyo Baaq Nabadeed
Dalladda PUNSAA waxay tacsi tiiraanyo leh u diraysaa dhammaan eheladii iyo qaraabadii ay ka baxeen muwaadiniintii ku geeriyooday dhacdadii naxdinta lahayd ee ka dhacday deegaanka Caramale gobolka Sanaag. Eebbe ha u wada naxariisto marxuuminta, inta dhaawaca ahna caafimaad degdeg ah ha siiyo.
PUNSAA waxay dowladda, odayaasha dhaqanka, culimada iyo waxgaradka gobolka ugu baaqaysaa in si degdeg ah loo xakameeyo xaaladda, lana joojiyo wax kasta oo sii hurin kara colaadda ama keeni kara xadgudub ka dhan ah muwaadiniinta.
Waxaan cod dheer ugu baaqaynaa walaalaha ay dhibaatadu dhex taallo inay ka fogaadaan fal kasta oo xaaladda sii murjin kara, una laabtaan wada hadal, sulux iyo nabad. Eebbe ha laga cabsado, hana la xakameeyo cid kasta oo dulmi geysan karta.
Dalladdu waxay sidoo kale ugu baaqaysaa dhammaan dhinacyada wax ka geysan kara nabadaynta inay si degdeg ah ugu istaagaan dadaallada suluxda iyo dib-u-heshiisiinta.

"There was a time when the role of civil society had fallen — when our voice carried less weight than it deserved. But that chapter is behind us. @Abdirahmansom opens his remarks at Day 2 of the #NationalCivilSocietyDialogue with a message that resonates deeply across the room: Our role had diminished — but we have reclaimed our honour. Those entrusted with representing the people of #Somalia must never lose sight of that responsibility. Civil society must keep itself far removed from anything that compromises its integrity. The people are watching and we owe them nothing less than our very best.'"
@Abdirahmansom, Chairperson of @Punsaa_PL National Civil Society Dialogue on Inclusive Governance and Political Settlement in #Somalia.
