    I agree with Maakhiri. The misunderstanding is more cultural. He is talking to different people to different language. He wants to win this what ever it takes. He understand. what in stake, for him a 27 yeras dream. He is also understand that he is vurnable. He is probably signaling going back to their old position with under table agreement as he use to deal with faroole and Cade But the stakes are high for Puntland and that option is unlikely at least for now. It takes extra ordinary sacrified for Putland to deal with somaliland and that is what he. is counting. That is what he is talking about.

    Does that mean a Somali to just discuss once and the next thing is go for the gun? The man seems to have mastered the facebook age to a tee. That way I am happy to see him make success out of it, but not bloodshed of the poor nomad.

    Mogadishu is full of fiqis and the like dowladiids. they don't want Hassan sheikh. they don't want shariif. they don't want farmajo. the Mogadishu big merchant economic warlords want the chaos and profiteering to continue. it serves no purpose for them to have a functioning government. the poor civilians in Mogadishu are spectators and don't have any power. the big bakaara market merchant warlords control everything. here is a story. few months ago when Yusuf garad was sacked (he was foreign minister from Galmudug clan) many people were mystified as to why the third most important ministerial portfolio (prestige wise) was taken away from galmudug clans who were opposing the government and given to puntlanders. everyone was shocked. that position normally belongs to Somaliland clans because it is equivalent to PM or President when it comes to importance and 4.5 power distribution. it turns out niyoow that the ministry of interior is very important for Galmudug clan. what the galmudug clan's big merchant wigs wanted was to secure this interior ministry position. lool. do you know why? fake documents, licenses, permits, ... everything needed to move money, fraud, detentions, comes under that department. the bakaara market boys were happy in the end and the poor foreign ministry position was given to Puntlanders. that is what we dealing with niyoow. Mogadishu is indeed government killer.

    The worst part is you spend money that could have built a good school or clinic everytime and since you don't control your home, everybody knows and no body respects you. Either you are dictator like Isayas, or democrat like Kenyan or mixed bag like Al Bashir or "dictator" like Iley if everybody knows you are leader of your home, people will respect you. I wish Farmaajo was like A. Yusuf where he can have coffee with nomads under tree shed and and sit in a palace Jowhar or Baidoa. With all his power Meles used to do that from time to time, goes to some district sits among the farmers and let them tell him even their daily lives..those are militia for life. Iley has mastered this even working on micro dams, needling goats with some American special forces volunteers. Mugadishu is government killer.

    It is never a good news when the President of Somaliland is accused of bililiqo.
