Irro launches national exams for 40,000 students

HARGEISA — Somaliland President Abdirahman Abdillahi Irro  on Saturday inaugurated the start of national secondary and intermediate school examinations, marking a key annual milestone in the region’s academic calendar.

The launch ceremony was held at Farah Omar Secondary School in the capital Hargeisa and attended by students, educators, and education ministry officials.

In a brief address, President Irro underscored the importance of education in shaping Somaliland’s future and called on students to uphold integrity during the exams.

“Education is the foundation of national development. I urge all candidates to approach this challenge with honesty and confidence,” he said.
