Former Deputy Chairman Of Somaliland Parliament Warns Against Foreign NGOs

 

 

Hargeysa, Somaliland, April 17, 2010 (SL Times) – The former First Deputy Chairman of Somaliland Parliament Abdilqadir Jirde warned Somaliland’s people against NGOs who are in Somaliland but who have agendas that can hurt the country and its people.

Mr Abdilqadir Jirde pointed out that right now there is a program to write a constitution for Somalia, in Kenya, and some Somaliland NGOs are going to take part in it while Somaliland’s government knows nothing about it. Mr Jirde added that although the NGOs were said to be participating as NGOs and not as representatives of Somaliland’s government, that could still pose a problem for Somaliland, and Somalilanders need to know what is going on, for it could be said later that Somaliland participated in writing Somalia’s constitution because such and such NGO was present.

The deputy chairman said this in a parliamentary debate on regulating the work of NGOs and humanitarian organizations.
