As a citizen of an Arab League member state, it was embarrassing to see President Hassan Sheikh deliver his speeches in English in front of the Arab World. Abdiqasim and Sheikh Sharif had a good command of Arabic, while it was equally embarrassing to see President Abdulahi Yusufs Arab League speeches being simultaneously translated into Arabic. Finally, Speaker Jawari comes to the conference in Kuwait armed with Arabic, the second to do so after Minster Maryan Qasim. We cannot play both ways. We either need to pull out of the Arab League, abrogate the article that makes Arabic as our first language on par with Somali, or make Arabic a must language for future presidential candidates and senior govt officers and diplomats like French is for Canadian politicians. Feeling disgusted!
