The house of elder’s bill extending the term of the government soured generated wide welcome and appreciation throughout the country

The roots of all goodness lie in the soil of appreciation for goodness and appreciation makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well. The decision of extending the term of the government and the parliament for a period of 22 months  has soured very wide popularity for the government and its top leadership and this government is the most popular in the history of Somaliland since we reclaimed our independence in the view of the progress accomplished by this government throughout the country even though according  to some people evaluate progress in relation to their tribal mentality while in reality progress is measured by the number of achievements and goals accomplished by the government in its term of office. Although progress is measured by multiple different measures such as GPD, however, generally the same is measured in terms of developments for the essential human domains such as educating, health, Infrastructure, water and other need for human and community advancement, but in the event progress can be determined if some close to us by blood can gain power, then perhaps this is a distant dream since no can gain power through tribal influences. Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything and without continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, achievement, and success have no meaning. This current has achieved success progress in most human domains of developments more than the collective years of the successive governments from 1991 and until July 2010.

Without liberating our mentalities from the affects of tribalism, it is not possible to observe the progress which is visible throughout the country reason being the affects of tribalism generated them to blind to see the tens of multi-storey build by this government for each and every government ministry. Popularity is a social phenomenon that dictates who or what is best liked. The more pervasive something is, the more people have access to it. Since popularity is judged in a social context, the more people who support or know something or someone, the more popular it will then be judged. When popularity for governing body elevate up, contrarily the popularity for the competing party declines.

Since announcing the house of elder’s bill, we have learned through our media tens of support message and slogans received from wide spectrum of our society throughout the country, mainly the traditional leaders representing from all sectors of our society. There is no hospitality like understanding. Clouds can never hide the sun forever; so don’t complain about clouds but never forget to welcome the sun. The decision of our house elders received unimagined appreciation and approval throughout Somaliland. Over the two days, people are expressing joy, pleasure and festivals throughout the country, as the progress attained by this government captured the hearts and the mind of the people. This government has achieved greater things over the last four years and it is certain that, they prepared to accomplish other remaining potential progress in the extended period which is 22 months taken into account the graph of progress which is already scored Books are two kinds, books of one hour and books round the hour. Gratitude paints little smiley faces on everything it touches. The only way to smile at harvest time is to appreciate the invisible fruits in the visible seed.. In conclusion, Sunshine is a welcome thing as it brings a lot of brightness. In reality I could voice that Somaliland came into existences only when the current government came into office in July 1210.  The wide appreciation expressed by Somaliland people throughout the county is indirect true referendum for the pubic of our people and test of popularity
