The president of the federal government of Somalia Hassan Sheik Mahmoud called on the National Intelligence and Security Agency (NISA) of Somalia to tight grip on the country’s security as he addressed on the 44th anniversary of the spy agency over night on Wednesday.
“NISA is responsible for the peace and security in the whole country, so I urge you to work hard to try to overcome those who don’t want the Somali people to enjoy in peaceful life and progress, I am so proud of what you have done last year” President Hassan Sheik Mahmoud said in his address at the NISA’s 44th anniversary.
“I am congratulating on the entire members of the national security and intelligence agency on this very precious occasion of the 44th anniversary of the establishment of NISA” President Hassan Sheik told the ceremony.
He said that NISA was more important for the stabilisation of the country adding that his government was committed to giving much priority to the Intelligence agency. He said his government was intending to draw special financial programs for the security Agency.
The president emphasized that NISA had accomplished more tangible tasks last year including the quick tackling of the attacks on the Banadir regional court and the UN’s main compound in the country.
It took less than an hour to NISA’s specially trained forces to tackle those attacks which had the similarity of the west gate mall besiege in Kenya, a matter that Somali president said he was fully proud of.
