Mogadishu Mayor Condemns Warta Nabadda Attack as a Destructive Coup Attempt, Praises Security Forces’ Restraint
Thursday 25 Sep 2025 {HMC}– Mayor of Mogadishu, Dr. Mungaab, has issued a strong condemnation of a recent security incident in the city, describing it as a “coup” intended to destabilize the nation’s capital. Speaking at a public event, the Mayor praised the swift and professional response of the security forces, stating their actions prevented a far greater catastrophe. The comments were delivered in the wake of an attack that, according to the Ministry of Information, was perpetrated by politicians who sought to disrupt peace and order.
Dr. Mungaab’s address painted a picture of a calculated effort to sow chaos. He characterized the attack as a “destructive act by individuals who were defeated in the political arena and are now resorting to violence and chaos”. The mayor’s message was a direct response to a press release from the Ministry of Information that condemned an act by politicians who “violated public security” and attempted to “obstruct the security of the Banaadir region”.
The mayor’s remarks underscored the fact that such actions do not represent the interests or will of the city’s residents. He positioned the security forces’ response as a defense of the city’s stability, which has been carefully built over many years.
A central theme of Dr. Mungaab’s speech was his profound appreciation for the security forces, particularly the police, who responded to the incident with a high degree of professionalism. He commended their strategic handling of the situation and their restraint, crediting them with averting a more widespread conflict. He asserted that the incident was a direct challenge to the authority of the state, and the security forces’ firm response demonstrated the government’s resolve.
The mayor also issued a powerful appeal to the public to stand united with the government and security forces. He called on the residents of Mogadishu to resist any attempts by those who seek to cause disruption, highlighting that public cooperation is paramount to maintaining the peace and prosperity of the city.
The mayor’s message was reinforced by a speech from former Prime Minister Ali Mohamed Gedi, who spoke at the same event. Gedi’s address centered on the importance of the constitution and the rule of law as the only legitimate avenues for addressing political differences. He condemned the actions of the attackers as a betrayal of democratic principles and a reckless disregard for the nation’s legal and political framework.
Ali Mohamed Gedi defended the government’s right to protect its institutions and maintain order. He drew on Somalia’s past to emphasize that the country cannot return to a state of chaos and that the government’s actions are necessary to protect the hard-won gains in peace and stability. The former Prime Minister’s stance on the issue aligns with the government’s position that all political grievances must be resolved through peaceful and legal means, not through violence or force.
The combined messages from these prominent officials serve to strengthen public confidence in the government’s handling of the incident and to reinforce a unified front against those who would seek to undermine Somalia’s progress toward peace and stability.

Somali President Addresses UN Security Council on AI and Global Security
Thursday 25 Sep 2025 {HMC}President of the Federal Republic of Somalia, Hassan Sheikh Mohamud in an address to the United Nations Security Council, spoke at an open debate focused on modern technology and its impact on international security. The President highlighted the dual nature of artificial intelligence (AI), describing it as a contemporary reality that is rapidly transforming global life, economies, and security paradigms.
President Mohamud’s speech emphasized that while AI offers immense opportunities to foster peace and development, it also poses considerable risks to international stability. He called for a global, coordinated approach to manage this rapidly advancing technology.
The President stressed the importance of establishing comprehensive international laws and policies to govern the development and use of AI services. He further noted that it is imperative to ensure that modern technology and its benefits are accessible to all countries worldwide, addressing the issue of digital inequality.
This address positions Somalia at the forefront of the international conversation on emerging technologies and global security, reflecting the nation’s growing engagement in multilateral forums.

Kenya eyes US trade deal by end of year, seeks five-year extension to Africa pact
Thursday 25 Sep 2025 {HMC}Kenya’s President William Ruto said on Wednesday his country expects to sign a trade, opens new tab deal with the United States by year-end and that he will be pushing Washington to extend its duty-free agreement with Africa for at least five years.
Ruto will be meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio later on Wednesday to discuss the African Growth Opportunity Act (AGOA), he said in an interview on the sidelines of the annual United Nations General Assembly in New York. The 25-year-old act grants qualifying African nations duty-free access to the U.S. market and is due to expire this month.
“I will be asking him for the U.S. to consider seriously renewing and extending AGOA for at least a minimum of five years, because it is a platform that connects Africa and the U.S. in a very fundamental way, and it can go a long way in solving some of the trade deficits and challenges that exist at the moment,” Ruto said.
Ruto said he believes the U.S. administration has increased its appreciation for AGOA.
A bipartisan effort to secure a further extension to AGOA last year did not get a vote in Congress. President Donald Trump’s return to the White House in January, with his tariff-driven trade policy, has further cast doubt on an extension.
“AGOA gives both Africa and the U.S. the best chance to expand and deepen trade,” Ruto said.
ACCESS TO US MARKETS
The U.S. and Kenya have made “good progress” on a bilateral trade agreement, Ruto said, adding that he expects to sign a deal before the end of 2025. In April, Trump imposed a 10% tariff on Kenyan, opens new tab goods.
Kenya is looking for access to the U.S. market for its apparel, textile and agricultural products including tea, coffee and avocados. Ruto wants to explore new areas including mining and fishing. If a deal is reached, it would be the first of its kind between a sub-Saharan African nation and Washington.
Ruto said Kenya has robust trade agreements with several partners, including China which has removed all tariffs from the East African country’s agricultural products.
“We have a trade deficit in favor of China, but the one for the U.S. is fairly balanced, so we are still looking at avenues on how to balance trade with all our trading partners.”
CONFLICTS IN THE DRC AND HAITI
On the conflict in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ruto said a proposal has been made for the U.S., Qatar, the East African Community and the South African Development Community to come together next month to discuss the situation.
DRC President Felix Tshisekedi said on Monday that a U.S.-mediated peace deal signed with Rwanda in June has not calmed, opens new tab fighting in the country’s east.
Earlier on Wednesday, Ruto told the U.N. General Assembly that while Kenya had stepped up in Haiti to lead an international force to combat armed gangs, the world had not shown up for the Caribbean nation and the mission lacked logistical support.
“We need more numbers,” Ruto told Reuters. “We need more logistics, we need more equipment, and we need more financial support to be able to carry this through.”
Armed gangs have taken control of almost all of Haiti’s capital Port-au-Prince in a conflict that has forced some 1.3 million people from their homes, and fueled famine-level hunger.

Somalia says no to Egyptian and Ethiopian peacekeepers clashing on its soil
Thursday 25 Sep 2025 {HMC} There will be no “proxy war” between Egypt and Ethiopia on Somali soil, according to the country’s President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud.
Somalia’s President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud has said there is no possibility of Egyptian and Ethiopian peacekeepers clashing in his country, amid a bitter rivalry between the two regional heavyweights.
Egyptian troops are set to arrive in the nation soon as part of the African Union Somalia peacekeeping mission (AUSSOM), which also includes Ethiopian soldiers.
Egypt’s participation in the new mission has angered Ethiopia, with the two countries locked in a long-running diplomatic dispute over the control of the Nile River waters.
Mohamud told the BBC that there will be no “proxy war” between Egypt and Ethiopia on Somali soil.
“Since the two countries’ armies are not close to each other in Somalia, there is no chance of conflict,” he said in an interview, adding that their troops would be stationed hundreds of kilometres apart.
“I see no reason why Egypt wants to disturb Ethiopia. I also see no reason why Ethiopia wants to disturb the Egyptian peacekeeping forces in Somalia,” he added.
Somalia’s federal government has been supported by an African Union peacekeeping mission since 2007 in fighting the Islamic extremist group al-Shabaab, which has ties with al-Qaida and is behind deadly attacks in the country.
That mission concluded in December 2024 and was replaced this year by AUSSOM.
Cairo’s offer last year to contribute troops to the mission — following the delivery of weapons and ammunition to Somalia as part of a security pact — triggered a significant backlash from Addis Ababa, which has had major rifts with both Egypt and Somalia.
A war Trump ended?
The tensions between Ethiopia and Egypt concern the former’s construction of a dam on the Blue Nile, a key tributary of the Nile River. Cairo fears it will have a devastating effect on water and irrigation supplies in Egypt unless Addis Ababa takes its needs into account.
Meanwhile, the dispute between Ethiopia and Somalia is over the breakaway region of Somaliland.
Ethiopia signed a memorandum of understanding with Somaliland last year to lease land along its coastline to establish a marine force base.
In return, Ethiopia would become the first country to formally recognise Somaliland’s independence. Somalia says the deal infringes on its sovereignty and territory.
Amid heightened tensions last year, Somalia had said Ethiopian soldiers would not be part of the new African Union peacekeeping mission in the country. Yet the two nations later reached an agreement on the presence of Ethiopian peacekeepers in Somalia.
Under the new arrangement, AUSSOM will consist of about 11,900 personnel, including soldiers, police, and civilian staff. Uganda will contribute 4,500 troops, Ethiopia 2,500, Djibouti 1,520, Kenya 1,410, and Egypt 1,091, according to local media reports.
The rift between Egypt and Ethiopia came under the global spotlight on Tuesday when US President Donald Trump told the UN General Assembly that it was one of the “seven unendable wars” that he had ended in a period of just seven months.
Trump’s claim — which he has repeatedly made — once again raised eyebrows, as regional observers and analysts pointed out that Egypt and Ethiopia are not at war and that their diplomatic dispute remains unresolved.

Uganda, Somalia to host Joint Commission, business summit to boost bilateral ties
Thursday 25 Sep 2025 {HMC} Uganda will host the second session of the Uganda-Somalia Joint Permanent Commission and a business summit to strengthen bilateral relations and promote trade and investment between the two countries.
The event, scheduled for Oct. 7-8 at Mestil Hotel in Kampala, is themed “Promoting Uganda-Somalia Partnership through Investment, Trade and Tourism, and Harnessing Opportunities in Both Countries.” It will bring together government officials and private sector leaders to review existing cooperation and explore new economic opportunities.
During a media launch at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs headquarters, Professor Sam Tulya Muhika, Uganda’s Head of Mission in Somalia, said the summit aims to raise awareness among Ugandan businesses about trade and investment opportunities.
“While Ugandans engage in business with Somalia, the reverse is currently limited,” Muhika said.
He highlighted the historical ties between the two nations, noting the Somali community has been in Uganda since the 1920s. He also referenced the 2016 framework agreement that established the Joint Permanent Commission and allows government agencies to sign memoranda of understanding, or MOUs, under its oversight.
The upcoming JPC will review agreements from 2022 on defense, trade and diplomatic cooperation. New MOUs are expected to be signed on immigration, education, sports and labor.
The summit will be attended by Ugandan President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni and Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud. It will feature exhibitions, business-to-business sessions and discussions on overcoming trade barriers.
Ambassador Abdi Latif Ali, Somalia’s Deputy Ambassador to Uganda, expressed gratitude for the meetings, calling them a “reflection of deep bilateral ties.” He acknowledged Uganda’s support during Somalia’s difficult periods and recalled Somalia’s support for Uganda in the 1970s.
Richard Kabonero, head of Regional Economic Cooperation at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, emphasized the growth of Uganda’s export base.
“In the last 15 years, Uganda has added 31 new products to its export markets, and there is no better market than our neighbors and the region,” he said.
The first session of the JPC was held in Kampala on Aug. 7-8, 2022, and resulted in several key agreements. It was followed by an investment and business summit on Aug. 10, 2022, which produced the Kampala Declaration on Trade, Investment, and Tourism.
Uganda has been a key partner in regional peacekeeping efforts in Somalia through AMISOM, ATMIS and AUSSOM. The two countries are now working to translate these efforts into sustainable trade and development opportunities.

Somali President meets Crown Prince of Kuwait in New York
Thursday 25 Sep 2025 {HMC} Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud met with the Crown Prince of Kuwait, His Highness Sheikh Sabah Khaled Al-Hamad Al-Sabah, on Wednesday on the sidelines of the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York.

The meeting in New York builds on previous high-level meetings, including discussions on the sidelines of the Arab-Islamic Summit in Doha. Kuwait has long been a key partner for Somalia, providing humanitarian assistance and support for infrastructure and education projects.

Somali Ambassador to Kenya condemns viral acts of youths ‘disrespecting’ Kenyan flag
Thursday 25 Sep 2025 {HMC} Somali ambassador to Kenya, Jabril Ibrahim Abdulle, has condemned violent acts in which some youth were filmed stepping on Kenyan flags at the Nyayo Stadium in Nairobi.
This happened during a match between Kenya Police FC and Somalia’s Mogadishu City Club in the first leg of their preliminary CAF tie at Nyayo Stadium, where the hosts, Kenya Police FC, beat the visitors by three goals to one.
Speaking in Nairobi on Wednesday, Ambassador Jabril described the acts as regrettable and said authorities are investigating the matter for possible action.
“Let me state clearly that we regret and firmly condemn the actions of a few individuals whose behaviour has overshadowed the remarkable performances of both teams,” Abdulle stated.
He added: “Such incidents do not reflect the values of respect, friendship, and shared sovereignty that guide the relationship between the two countries.”
Following the incidents that went viral both inside and outside the stadium, Kenyans have been mounting pressure on authorities to take action, citing that this was not only a show of disrespect to the flag but to the nation at large.
Similarly, Interior and National Administration CS Kipchumba Murkomen said desecrating symbols of national unity is punishable by law.
The CS noted that the National Flag, Emblems and Names Act regulates the use of the country’s national symbols, including the national flag, emblems, names, words, and likenesses.
“Many people don’t know that there is the National Flag, Emblems and Names Act. I urge the Inspector General of Police to ensure the law takes its course,” he said.
CS Murkomen was speaking in Wajir during the 45th Jukwaa la Usalama tour.
