A Parliamentarian Enriched with The Nation's Resources

A parliamentarian enriched with the nation's resources. 

Parliamentarian Abdirahman Meecaad, a member of the Somaliland House of Representatives, has played a leading role in the gold extraction of the mountains of the Erigavo district. He opened one of the largest mining companies in Somaliland in the Cirshiida area of the region, which is said to have significantly changed the economic activity and job creation in the area. Important issues related to this project include: Xidid Madow Company: Parliamentarian Meecaad established a company called Xidid Madow Company in the Sanaag region, which works in the extraction and processing of mineral resources from the Erigavo mountains, but no one can confirm the actual amount of gold produced. Development Projects: Benefiting from these resources and investment, he has implemented economic infrastructure projects in the constituencies he represents (such as Midhisho and Cirshiida). Specifically, a road connecting the Kulmiye and Cirshiida areas, which has created great doubt and suspicion among some members of the public about something being smuggled, given that his vehicles can freely use the ancient Tabca road. Divergent Public Opinions: Although his supporters are convinced that these projects are job creation and new development for the region, on the other hand, there is a section of the public that expresses concern about the management of natural resources and the impact that the chemicals used to purify gold may have on the environment and the lives of livestock and people.
