Yesterday, Somaliland witnessed a deeply troubling incident at the airportโone that undermines both national security and the dignity of our institutions. Former President Muse Bihi, accompanied by armed soldiers with no legal authorization, forcefully entered the VIP lounge in a blatant disregard for security protocols. Such reckless behavior is unacceptable and sets a dangerous precedent for the rule of law in our country.
Unlike his predecessors, former Presidents Dahir Rayale Kahin and the late Ahmed Mohamed Mohamoud Silanyo (RIP), who traveled with humility and respect for legal procedures, Muse Bihiโs actions reflect a concerning disregard for the new governmentโs authority. This kind of behavior not only creates unnecessary chaos but also weakens public trust in our democratic institutions.

To uphold the rule of law and prevent further violations, the government must act decisively: ๐๐ป๐๐๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ผ๐๐ป๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ถ๐น๐ถ๐๐ โ Airport officials who allowed this breach must be held responsible.

It is alarming that a former president, who was replaced through a democratic process, continues to control technical vehicles, weapons, and troops that rightfully belong to the national army. This behavior is reminiscent of overthrown military regimes, not of a leader who respects democracy and national unity.

The safety of former presidents is the responsibility of the current governmentโnot private militias. Any unauthorized armed groups or weapons pose a serious risk to Somalilandโs stability and international standing. Muse Bihi must respect the rule of law, as his predecessors did, rather than acting as if he still holds power. Somaliland will not tolerate illegal armed groups.
Somaliland will not allow its institutions to be undermined.
Somaliland will not accept leaders who place personal interests above national security.
