“This is a time to reflect on your contributions to the country.  As young men like you did in the 50s and played a key role in the country’s journey to independence, you have today a big role to play in shaping a future of Somalia without violent extremism and terrorism. As you do so.  AMISOM will remain by your side, shoulder to shoulder with you, forging a secure and enabling environment for a meaningful and sustainable development in Somalia,” emphasized Ambassador Madeira.
