To The People of Somaliland
1: The Republic of Somaliland and its entire population is on the right path, a path to democracy and peace guided by virtues based on tradition and common goals. While some might view the rebirth of the second republic, the restoration of dignity and humanity to millions of oppressed people as an exclusive endeavor.
2: The citizens of Somaliland enjoy today peace and freedom through under the creation of a government that is accountable and transparent. It is never too late to contribute to the democratic growth of your nation.
3: If your voice has not been heard before now is the time to speak for the continuation of the peace and development that has been taking root in Somaliland.
4: Do not fall prey to those who wish to deprive you of the peace and property which they enjoy in foreign lands.
5: Many of you have seen the evil of dictatorship and the agony of leaderless governing? Do not let the un-invested few destroy what you have built through shared sacrifice and determination.
6: There is no greater recognition than that of self determination through God given rights. Stand for democracy, stand in unity and hold firm to your principals of equality and justice for all.
7: Let your democratic foundation be the pillars which strengthen your national morality and all the functionaries of your government.
8: Do not become an easy conquest to those who can now barely hold you in check when united. The platform is yours use it wisely and use it for peace and brotherly love.
May Allah bless Somaliland and its people and may HE give peace and prosperity to Somalia.
