Our people had greeted, our great leader, Ustaaz Mahammed Yusuf Ismael in this historic event of Harari Sport and Cultural Festival and (Millennium) a thousand years of Hararghey renaissance or revival.  By the time of renaissance, the country, Hararghey had already enjoyed over two thousands –years heritage of advanced civilization.

On this historic occasion our people look back with warm hearts upon the tireless efforts and the great achievements of the respected leader, Ustaaz Mahammed had made for the liberation of our country ever since he felted our sufferings caused by the Abyssinian colonial forces. He took all the pains and put his heart and soul into the cause for national liberation and unification of this great country.

The question of nationalism and national liberation movement in our country was a question of putting an end to the foreign colonial domination and establishing national sovereignty throughout the country. It was our leader who developed the national struggle movement by convening the historic joint conference among the representatives of the nationalities of the region.  The great leader, who had immeasurably noble love for the country and nation, passed not a day without being concerned over the question of our national unification.
