My heartfelt appreciation goes to Somali Parliament for today’s validation of the Mining Bill, which reflects a strong commitment to responsible governance, transparency, and national development.
President H.E. @HassanSMohamud and President H.E. @RTErdogan met in Istanbul to advance Somalia–Türkiye cooperation. Following the meeting, the Minister @DahaShire confirmed strong 3D seismic results and announced that #Somalia is preparing for oil production to begin by 2026.
The Ministry reaffirms Somalia’s sovereignty over its mineral resources and warns that all illegal mining must cease immediately.
