The Transparency Somalia Initiative (TSI) has expressed profound concern regarding recent parliamentary amendments to the national constitution, which include provisions for extending the current governmental mandate. As an organization dedicated to integrity and institutional reform , TSI emphasizes that such significant changes require inclusive national consensus rather than the use of a parliamentary majority to bypass broader dialogue.
We believe that integrity in governance is measured by adherence to constitutional guardrails. To protect the nation’s stability, TSI is calling for an impartial, non-partisan legal audit of these amendments and the creation of an independent, multi-stakeholder forum to monitor electoral preparations.
