Historic day in Jigjiga. Thanks to the commitment of our visionary leader Prime Minister Dr. Abiy Ahmed, two critical development projects are today inaugurated in Somali Region, just months after 10 billion dollar worth of Mega Projects were launched in the Region. The Shabeeleey Resort, the first ever Tourism project, and the ~260m dollar Aysha’ wind power project will have immense positive impact on the lives of the people of the region and the country. On behalf of the government and people of the Somali Region, we thank the Prime Minister for the attention and priority he has given to a region long marginalized. Once considered a periphery, Jigjiga is positioning itself as a new important hub and center in the regional integration initiative of the Horn of Africa.

The Proof is in the Pudding, Dear Excellency. A clear example of the old periphery becoming the new center, or thereabout. The journey of building an inclusive national state and reversing centuries-old political order is no doubt going to be arduous, but achievable.

The improvement of the revenue collection capacity of the Somali Region since the reform is one good indicator of improved governance and accountability. This fiscal year, 2024/2025 (2017 Ethiopian Calendar), the region planned to collect 17.6b Birr, but managed to collect 18.5b Birr, or 104.6% of the plan. This accounts for about 45% of the total regional budget, a significant increase from the revenue share of the regional budget in 2018, which was 15%. With the increased economic activities in the region as the result of peace, and enhanced taxation capacity, the plan for the 2025/2026 year (2018 Eth Calendar) will be to aim for around 30b, thus increasing the share of revenue to 47% of the total budget.

With the immense dedication of the unsung heroes, i.e, parents and teachers, and the policies implemented by the Ministry of Education and relevant regional line bureaus, the quality of education is showing signs of improvement in the last couple of years. It will take years to reap the full fruits of recent policy changes, but parents proudly talking about the achievements of their children in exams, and the increased competition among students to perform well is a new phenomena in Somali Region. Curbing of exam cheating and changes made in the medium of instruction in Somali Region — now to be in English for all subjects from Grade 5, will significantly improve students’ chances at the national school leaving exams which are given in English.
