I am a citizen of the country known widely as "Best Kept Secret in Africa" I would like to say few words of my country and I need the African head of state to digest and engage my country while forgetting the so called "Pandora Box", because my country has fulfilled the AU charter and is not successionist from
Somalia.

We have been a country for a period and later join those whom we thought they are our brothers, but miserably failed to achieve our goal. We have reclaimed our statehood in 1991, and put house in order, while the remaining of Somali Democratic Republic are fighting since.

We have achieved and contributed to the democracy in Africa and this continent and created a bottom up problem resolve during our endeavor to build what we have today. Somaliland people have made peace with themselves and those countries that are our neighbors, we have created a unique system of reconciliation while we inherited a country that was destroyed by Siad Barre.

We sat down under a tree and our elders have uniquely managed to involve this process to all section of our people, including those who were against our freedom fighting organization [SNM] at the time. Our elders were sitting under that tree for five [5] long months without any help from the International Community, but succeeded to resolve everything that was obstacle to our peace making process.

In this world we live in, there are countries who instigate conflicts in this part of Africa to satisfy their narrow agenda. They create these conflicts, because of Water and wipe Somalis against Ethiopia, and that is the reason why this war in Somalia is going on and on. Africa needs to engage Somaliland and render help to join the International Community.

This will definitely help Somalia and our government who understands the problem might find solution to this problem. Justice delayed is justice denied, our fellow Africans.

It’s about time that Africa to open their eyes and bring the surface that report in 2005 under the take. AU fact finding delegation in 2005 to Somaliland has clearly stated that Somaliland has a case. We the people of Somaliland have every right to be a member of AU and UN if another conflict in the Horn is to be aborted. I hope they will listen.
