PRESS RELEASE
(For immediate release)

Nicolas Bwakira says within a short period, the TFG has managed to form an all inclusive cabinet which has attracted members beyond clan and political affiliations. The Somali Government has managed and continues to make progress in bringing on board various opposition groups with the exception of just a few pockets of anti-peace elements who do not wish to give peace a chance in their country.

The A.U Special Representative notes with satisfaction that the government has made progress in establishing authority in the capital Mogadishu. The government now controls the majority of the 16 districts in Mogadishu. This is a remarkable progress indeed considering the short period the government has been in power.

The AU Special Representative for Somalia commends President Sharif Sheikh Ahmed’s government for intensifying the establishment and training of the National Security Forces which will help further improve the security situation in Mogadishu and establish the rule of law.

He observes that the current trend of achievements by the Somali Government in less than six months in office clearly indicates that the TFG is gaining strength and massive popular support every day. This development brings hope to all Somalis both within and abroad that sustainable peace and stability is no longer a dream but a reality.

The AU Special Representative calls on all peace loving Somalis to rally behind their government which has shown commitment to ending years of fighting and anarchy in their country.

Bwakira assures the people and government of Somalia that the African Union through AMISOM will double its efforts to compliment the achievements that the TFG is making and calls upon the anti-peace  elements to join the peace process so that their fellow countrymen can enjoy stability.

Terminator @ 6/16/2009 4:35 AM EST  It only takes FEW Sick-Masked Packets with cult-ideology to create havoc and destruction to a society, but it takes whole a lot of effort to stop the cycle of violence that these idiots have been exercising! Godd Luck Mr. President and the TFG!

Mahare_Is_Here @ 6/15/2009 4:19 PM EST  SonOf Wrong again about me...I thought Maslax was the only candidate that was unqualified for the job. Yes he is more talented and expirienced than sharif, but he would be easy pray for Al-Haraam to lebel him any name of the book. And every d4mn a$$ like Hybaac and diidbaac. By the way povert is not your enemy, it's the people who forced you into that poverty that are your enemy. Stop them and when you get your peace to go to work and do what you think is the right choice for your life, then and only then will you leave the poverty behind. Now the hardworking is forced to share their bread with the lazy bags around town with the barel of g@n. Disarm those and then between you and poverty is your manhood and ability. No one to blame then if you can't feed your self......
