The Minister of Family and Human Rights Development of the Federal Government of Somalia, Amb.

\u201cAccording to the country\u2019s Electoral Law and the Law on Political Parties, we are all obligated to ensure the realization of the 30% participation of women and 5% participation of people with disabilities. Political parties in particular have a special responsibility to ensure these quotas,\u201d the Minister said.<\/p>\n
