During the engagement, President Museveni agreed to be the unification facilitator between Somaliland and Somalia.Somaliland, officially the Republic of Somaliland, is an unrecognised sovereign state in the Horn of Africa, recognised internationally as a de jure part of Somalia.nThe President said that he does not support the secession of Somaliland from Somalia because it is wrong.

“Dr Jama Musse Jama, the Special Envoy from Somaliland, called on me at State House, Entebbe. We do not support the secession of Somaliland from Somalia because, strategically, it is wrong.  The people face similar challenges regardless of race and religion; hence, they should embrace politics of interest, which is more important than politics of identity .”  President Museveni emphasized.

President Museveni told Dr. Jama that Somalia and Somaliland should do away with politics of identity if they want prosperity for their country. He explained that people face similar challenges regardless of their race and religion. He instead advised leaders to embrace politics of interest which is more important and will transform the citizens socially and economically.

President Museveni further agreed to trade with Somaliland saying that this will benefit the two economies.

“I agreed to take on the role of peace facilitator between the two. A country’s internal market alone is not enough; therefore, Somaliland and Somalia need to unite, trade together, and trade with other African countries.” Museveni Said

“In case you have something that we don’t have, we shall buy from you, you can also buy from us what you don’t have if we have it,” President Museveni Added.

President Museveni also advised that a Country’s internal market alone is not enough, and therefore there is need for Somaliland and Somalia to unite, trade together and also trade with other African countries.

Dr. Jama informed President Museveni that there is an urgent need for Somalia and Somaliland to unite because they are missing out a lot on development.Dr. Jama also requested the President to take the center stage in uniting the two countries because of his influential role in Somalia.

On the other hand, he expressed the need for Uganda to partner with Somaliland in trading, saying that Ugandan investors should start supplying goods to Somaliland and also buy from them the goods they do not have.
