Tayo (political party) Tayo (political party) The Tayo Political Party (TPP) (), abbreviated Tayo, is the ruling political party in Somalia. The Tayo Political Party was established in early 2012 by former Prime Minister of Somalia and President of Somalia, Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed (Farmajo), and members of his erstwhile Cabinet. The association was dubbed "Tayo" ("Quality") on account of the generally favorable reputation that his administration earned during its brief tenure. According to Mohamed, the party's primary agenda revolves around delivering services to Somalia's general population and encouraging the repatriation of Somali diasporans so as to assist in the ongoing post-conflict reconstruction process.
