In the midst of this global pandemic, Puntland lost one of its founding father. A former minister in the civil government, longest serving Somali ambassador to the EU, and a founding father of Puntland.
He was one of the signatories of the Manifesto paper. He also joined SSDF and had the honour to lead the North East Somalia administration, the predecessor of Puntland. The Northeastern regions had an effective administration since 1992, but was cemented with centralised temporarily leadership in 1994 with amb. Dhigic-Dhigic as our leader
AUN to this legendary founding father.

Following the failure of the Congress and the split in the SSDF, General Mohamed Abshir’s faction nominated an ex-ambassador, Mohamed Omar Jama ‘Dhigic-Dhigic’, on 3 October 1994 as the head of a nonpolitical administration for northeast regions. He was tasked with the establishment of a North East Somalia
State (NES), envisaged to be one of several states forming a future National Federation of Somalia. Detailed plans were put in place for institution building but foundered because of the unresolved divisions within the SSDF.
AUN to this legendary founding father.
