Federal Government of Somalia Launches Key Digital Public Infrastructure for National ID System

2025-09-18  Ian Fleming

On August 18, 2025, NIRA launched the pilot of its foundational ID mass registration campaign in the two districts of Shangani and Boondheer. This campaign is preparing to scale up with a bold objective: to register all 3.5 million residents of Mogadishu, extend coverage across the entirety of Banadir region, and ultimately reach 15 million nationwide by the end of 2029.
