Fawzia Haj Adam is running in the elections


 The candidate to run for the presidency in Somalia, Fawzia Haj Adam, said that the men failed to restore the prestige of the state and reduce the suffering of the citizens, noting that she is seeking to crowd out the men to correct the course of the state.


Fawzia (50 years old) added in an interview with the Turkish "Anadolu Agency" that "Somali women have not aspired seriously before for the presidency for decades, not mental or physical disability, but rather to experience the role of a man in running the country."


Regarding her electoral program, Fawzia said that it will focus on forming a government of technocrats, "ministers who do not belong to political parties", to enhance the capabilities of government institutions, "which enables citizens to touch state services, unlike the reality they are accustomed to from the almost complete absence of basic services provided by the state."


She attributed the weakness of state institutions to attributing them to non-citizens for tribal considerations and without taking into account the appropriate personality.


Regarding her perception of her country's foreign policy, Fawzia said: "I have great experience in the diplomatic field since my childhood, and foreign policy is what determines the nature of relations with other countries, and it comes within the framework of national security."


Fawzia is the first Somali woman to announce her intention to run for the presidency, in which 20 potential candidates will compete, all of whom are men, with the exception of her, most notably: current President Mohamed Abdullah Farmajo, former President Hassan Sheikh Mahmoud, and former President Sharif Sheikh Hassan.
