Last December, Somaliland leader Muse Bihi visited Kenya at the invitation of President Uhuru Kenyatta, eliciting varied reactions from the Horn of Africa. Through stronger ties with Kenya, Somaliland will not only benefit from the mutual friendship, but it will also strengthen our resolve for international recognition. Somaliland, through its ties with Kenya and like minded nations in Africa, will push for international recognition. As investors look to Africa, Somaliland bolstered by its strategic location, is positioned as the gateway to Africa through trade and technology and the ongoing expansion of the Berbera Port by the DP World. The move by Kenya to recognise Somaliland passports will boost influx of Somaliland businessmen and promote medical and education tourism in Kenya.
