I witnessed Somaliland's elections firsthand and can attest to the integrity of the polls. The Somaliland National Electoral Commission's almost flawless planning, conduct and management of the poll impressed all international observers. Congratulations to @SLNECHQ and Chairman Muse Hassan Yusuf for being recognised internationally for winning accolades for African electoral integrity and excellence.

Congratulations to @Nagaad_Network for the official opening of the Women's Studio. I road-tested it myself😳. It's a great space for women to raise their voices, share ideas and shape their futures. Empowering women helps #Somaliland prosper. 🇬🇧 supports women leaders.

Nagaad Network held a legal review meeting in Hargeisa on women's quota in Somaliland, urging swift approval of laws to ensure fair representation. Stakeholders called for stronger policies and inclusion in election law 91/2023. #WomenInLeadership #Somaliland"

Half of Somaliland’s population—women—remain sidelined in politics. In the 2021 parliamentary elections, not a single woman was elected. The #DooroXildhibaanad campaign supports women aspirants for the 2026 elections and pushes to remove barriers to their leadership.

"Women in Somaliland have been vital to the peace process, yet challenges in political participation persist. The quota debate has lasted 24 years—it's time for change. Women are key to progress! Let's celebrate their achievements and push for representation." Dr. Edna Adan

"As a minister, I am ready to go wherever necessary and take every step to ensure that women in Somaliland take their rightful seats in the national Councils, regardless of party or clan affiliations." Minister of MolSAF, Ms. Milgo Mohamed Elmi (Sanbalooshe).

"We are also lobbying for the ratification of the Somaliland Women's Quota. Quotas are a mechanism that has solved the obstacles women face in political participation in many countries. We as Nagaad have prepared a booklet explaining the importance of quota" Nafisa, Nagaad ED

"The program we are launching today is called "Dooro Xildhibaanad" It is a Campaign in which we support women candidates who faced many challenges in previous elections." Nafisa Yusuf, Nagaad ED

On April 10, Nagaad Network, in collaboration with MOLSAF, launched the #DooroXildhibaanad Campaign to support women candidates in Somaliland's 2026 elections. Attendees included women aspirants, govt officials, CSOs, INGOs, and UN agencies. #EmpowerWomen #SomalilandElections

Yesterday in Hargeisa: Prominent Somaliland women led by @Nagaad_Network met with @GConway_UN , UN Deputy Special Representative of the Secretary-General, Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator. They fruitfully discussed women's rights and strengthening efforts to empower women.
