    "content": "As I speak, there are aircraft from Somalia which have been requested to land at Wajir Airport for security clearance. I think, always in Government, there is need to review events that happen. I happen to be part of the team that recommended this measure in 2006. This was because at that time Mogadishu was under the control of the Islamic Courts Union. Now it is under control of a Government that is friendly to us. The airport in Mogadishu is under the control of the African Union troops. It is actually under full guard by the African Union troops. So, there are no possibility of criminals coming into the airport and taking off from Mogadishu in the presence of the African Union troops. Therefore, there is need to review this. There was need in 2006. The need is still apparent in 2009. You realize that, that has not been reviewed. So, there is need to review this so that planes that are coming from Somalia do not get inconvenienced because there is a cost implication to it. Even though security cannot be compromised, there is need to review if the threats are still as they were when we put those particular caveats for aircraft that go into the Somali airspace."
