After we approve this nominee, we expect the Executive to immediately post him to Mogadishu so that he can raise our flag among other countries. I expect to see a day when our Executive will send a high-powered Government delegation to send a strong message that we are there and it must be felt properly. One of the reasons why we should have an embassy down there is for purposes of issuing visas and other services including trade. It has been noted recently that because we deny Somalis visas, many of them take the panya route. They come all the way from Mogadishu on transit to Nairobi, end up in Entebbe, Uganda and they come through"
