He further went on to praise local businessmen for their continued usage of the facilities of the Berbera port.

The Minister of National Planning Dr. Sacad Ali Shire addressing the participants in the exhibition reiterated on the vital importance of the port of Berbera not only for Somaliland but for countries in the horn of Africa.

Mr. Najib Hassan Hashi who is the World Bank official tasked with preparing and the presentation of the study report said the Berbera port not only acts as Somaliland main source of income for the republic of Somaliland but as a significant gateway for countries in the horn and this can be brought about by the improvement of facilities at the port.

Dr. Sacad, I can understand, Ali Hor-Hor, I can undertand. I can understand both attending the meeting, but Hersi, from the Presidency. It is true what they say, that the Berbera Port is under the Presidency. Which it shouldn't, because, one its an independent national agency, and secondly, if it comes under a government department it should be Transport and Communication, or even the Ministry of Finance. If every revenue generating national agency comes under the Presidency, then Hersi is running the country and not the President. A logical conclusion. Agree or disagree?

Folks, slow down, this is only about presentation, not business deals or contractual
agreements etc. I don't know if the development of the Berbera Port needs the World Bank and
the IMF. There are many other ways to develop the Port. Btw The Presidency Minister Hersi Haji
Ali, is the Armstrong candle light of the whole Govt operating under the President Silaanyo.
In other words, he's the mastermind Secretary of the Presidency high office, and as such,
what goes in or out of the JSLD is under his Ministerial command. He's the big elephant
Minister for the Presidency high office..make no mistake to undermine this special high
profile Govt official. Who knows, he may even replace President Silaanyo and become the next
Jecloz President after 2015?
Cheers.

Hersi Gaab is the real "president" not Silanyo as many think. Silanyo corrupted that fake post "minister of presidency" as if any one needs a "butler with more power" because he wanted to increase the number of "ministers" for his habar.

Hersi gaab is every where. The guy is angry for camera, what you expect from a geeljire and al shabaab member from Garadaag. The locals will never entertain his tribal agenda for Berbera, Esse Musse already know Silanyo/Hersi Gaab's little habar regime and their tribalism.
