The Government and People of the Federal Republic of Somalia condemn the heinous and unforgiveable dawn attack on AMISOM soldiers by the terrorist Group AlShabaab at their Leego town base today.
We pay tribute to the courage, commitment and sacrifice of AMISOM soldiers whose dedication and efforts has made progress in all its forms possible again in Somalia.
We express our deepest condolences to the families, friends and loved ones of those courageous soldiers who paid the ultimate price protecting our innocent civilians and strengthening institutions as well as safeguarding our progress against the evil that is terrorism.
The Government of the Federal Republic of Somalia will not be deterred from achieving its ambitions of peace, progress and prosperity for its entire people and the wider region by the cowardly acts of those who hide behind a bankrupted and fraudulent interpretation of our beautiful Islamic religion.
Through the continuing concerted and valiant efforts of AMISOM and the Somali National Army, we will ensure the sacrifice of our brothers and sisters today will not be in vain.
The Somali National Army and AMISOM will continue with their joint operations until every inch of Somalia is liberated from AlShabaab and our people can be free to achieve their ambitions in peace and freedom.
