Government of Sanama

Under the First Republic, the aspiration is to establish a democratic federation in Sanama, based on local self government. Until that can be achieved, the SALAD governs the areas under its control. It operates under a system with dual leadership, one man and one woman, and where possible, one Sani and one Ama. The executive, legislative and judicial power is temporarily vested in the National Revolutionary Council. The council is chaired by Takir Koshë, a Sani man, and Delah Nihor, an Ama woman. The council is selected from the SALAD and the traditional clan leadership.
