The Justice and Welfare Party (Somali: Ururka Caddaalada iyo Daryeelka, UCID; Arabic: حزب العدالة والتنمية), sometimes translated as the Justice and Welfare Association, is the oldest political party in Somaliland. The party tends to be supported by people from the Garhajis clan[4] and some sub-clans of the Isaaq.[5]
UCID was founded in 2001 by Somaliland politician Faysal Ali Warabe, with its program being inspired by that of the FinnishSocial Democratic Party.[1] Waraabe also serves as its Chairman.[6] The party has been described as the only one at a national level to adhere to a specific political ideology.[7]
