The political culture in Somaliland is an egalitarian one. Specially Beesha Dhexe. So for everyone from the unknown to the well known to have equal say and communicate their personal feelings or believes, it is a welcomed sign that the people are moving forward. This is why in Somaliland almost everything is openly discussed and nothing is hidden. The gov't is held to account, the ministers coming on TV explaining their side of the story. You will never see this type of open discussions of gov't ministers and opposition party engaging in lively political discourse about the goings on, anywhere else in the Somali regions. We know Mogadishu Khaire's moratorium on media engagement by his cabinet. We know Cheeseman, after almost 3 years, has never held an open questions interview. The same goes for Puntland where each Hagbad inheritor takes the enclave on a personal ride with no questions asked. So, all these public engagement, is music to my ears that the people are awake and taking part and shaping their future. What other Somalis take for granted, in Somaliland we don't. If we think the gov't is not on the right path, we tell it like it is without mincing words. And not wait until end of the tenor and call it 'what a bad leadersip it was' like Puntlanders do every 4years. Rather, you have to oppose what is wrong and support what is right every single day.

Projects that will be finalised This year. 1. Burco - Ceerigaabo Road - 300 km of fully locally funded paved road will be finished in September 2020. This road has already cut the travel time between Burco and Ceerigaabo by half. People now can have their breakfast in Hargeisa and have lunch in Ceerigaabo. A tremendous improvement. 2. Berbera corridor Road - 200km modern highway that will connect Berbera to the trading town of Togwachale will be completed by October this year. 3. Berbera Port expansion - the new 400m Berbera Port Container Terminal will be completed by October this year 4. Berbera International Airport - the newly refurbished with new 4km runway, will be opened later in the year. Projects that will be turning sod in 2020 1. Hargeisa - Burco Road via Oodweine, funded by African Development Bank and Somaliland Government, this 180km hinterland road will cut travel time between Hargeisa and Burco by 1/2. The current road via Berbera is total length 300km. The new road via Oodweine will be 180km. Travellers will be saving over 100km of fuel expense and a lot of time. This road will also help cut time to far Eastern regions i.e. time to reach Ceerigaabo will be further cut. 2. Djibouti - Jigjiga Road via Borama, also Funded by Africa Development Bank, this is 250km Road that will link Djibouti and Jigjiga passing through Borama. 3. Drill babe Drill - The first Oil well of many will get drilled this year. 4. Ceerigaabo - Mait Road - a 30km steep downhill/uphill road that winds down through Daallo Mountains and crosses Tabca Pass. This road will cut travel time to and from coastal communities. 5. Mait Fishing Port - A port that will serve as an economic hub for Sanaag regions to tab into the rich fishing seas on its shore.

Somaliland has the best case in africa legally really. It's just that lack of economic interest from western powers is the problem. But it has shown the world that Somaliland is here to stay and that no one in Somalia can change that. Deep inside most of the koonfurians know this to the 2 countries. Have been to seperate countries for almost 3 decades this will surpass the short lived union of 20 years. In the later half of afweyne reign somaliland was at war with Somalia. In the end runtay tegeysa.

I love it when Somaliland is making the rest of us look like either we do not know the seriousness of the situation or we have no clue what to do where to start. We can't even brag about herd immunity since we are cowards. May Allah (swt) help the poor nomad. As for Somaliland, thank you for making the Somali part of the world.

"Progress" is still on after a year of nothingness. Meantime, the reality and fact is: However, in marqaan marfishes from Muuse Muqayil and his little trolls: 1991 will certainly be a very interesting year. 1992 will certainly be a very interesting year. 1993 will certainly be a very interesting year. 1994 will certainly be a very interesting year. 1995 will certainly be a very interesting year. 1996 will certainly be a very interesting year. 1997 will certainly be a very interesting year. 1998 will certainly be a very interesting year. ..... And more than 20 years later, still: 2020 will certainly be a very interesting year. 2021 will certainly be a very interesting year.

From looter's inc to intellectuals, what transformation.

I don't see astaan dowladnimo I see 5 guys who are under the payroll of the EU and the US who wear fancy suits while hiding inside a bunker protected by African Union troops. These people don't rule or control anything.

Galbeedi, Suldaanka, iyo Xerta kale, Markaan Xamar joogey ee aan jaamacadda lafoole ku jirey ayaan dharka waxaan ka meydhan jirey nin beesha "Unukaa-leh-goofley-Abgaal-ah", oo dharka gacanta ku meydhi jirey. Gaar ahaan ardeyda lafoole ku jirtey oo jamaacadda agteeda ayuu ku lahaa doobi lacag uu ka qaadan jirey oo dharka ayuu kuu meydhi jirey halkaas, dabadeedna wuu feerayn jirey, sida surwaaladda iyo shaadhadhka. Markaas kuwayaga reer waqooyiga ah ee jaamacadda lafoole ku jirey ayuu lacag ka urursan jirey oo ka fara-qabsan jirey, ileyn dadka kale ee magaaladda Xamar deganaa ee Jaamacadda ku jirey ee ay guryahooduna ay ku yaaleen magaaladda, dharkooda halkaas ayey ku soo meydhan jireene. Maalin maal-maha ka mid ah ayaan ugu imid "doobigisii" aniga oo dhar badan jiidaya si aan u idhaahdo dharkan ii maydh oo dabadeedna ii feeree, qiimo fiicana iigu samee, mar hadaan ahay iskaabulo (i.e, soolane) jaamacad ku jira. Markaas ayaan arkey isaga oo "shirib" ku heeleynaya oo shaqada iyo dharka uu meydhayey ku wada heeladaas. Markaas ayaan ku idhi waa maxay waxan aad akhrineyso ee aad ku dhawaaqeyso. Markaas ayuu yidhi: "Arey Qaldaan Aheeydaa, Mugoo Ma Fahmin Miyaa?" Markaas baan ku idhi waar yaahe waxan aad ku hadleyso garan maaye ii sheeg waxa aad ku daldalmeyso waxa ay yihiin. Markaas ayuu yidhi, "shirib" aa la dhahaa kan. Dabadeedna waxa aan idhi dee waayehee tafsiirkiisa isii. Markaas buu yidhi kan waxa la dhahaa: "Xamar-na Xisaab, Xaradheera-na Xoog". Dabadeedna waxa aan ku idhi ii macnee oo ii sheeg naxwaxa iyo waxa loola jeedo. Markaasu ayuu yidhi, Xamar dowlad baa ka dhisan (oo markaas waxa ay ku beegan tahay badhtamihii 1980s) oo xisaab iyo kala bax sharci ayaa yaala. Xaradheera-na wixii yidhi waa meel xoog lagu kala baxo. Markaas ayaan idhi yaa Xaradheere dega, reero ahaan. Dabadeedna wuxuu yidhi, "unuka iyo ILjeex" aa daga. Taas "midhaha" ah ee "shiribkiisii" ku jirey ee ahaa: "Xamar-na Xisaab, Xaradheera-na Xoog" ayaan soo xusuustaa markasta oo aan arko beesha Iljeex (i.e., HG) iyo ciyaartooda siyaasadeed ee aan dhamaadka laheyn. Sababta oo ah waa niman geesiyiin ah oo "Xoog" iyo muruq laba-quwadle ah ku kalabaxa. Mana jecla in aad "Xisaab" aad ula timaado. Waxaana dhici kartaba in ay adiga shaadhka ay kaa soo furtaan haddii aad xisaab ula timaado. Oo waliba ku darsoo adiga oo maqsuud ah, mar hadaan kabahiiba lagaala soo hadhin, ayaad kasoo tageysaa dhulka ay degaan haddii ay wax dan ahi ay kaa soo galaan halkaas. Taas oo ah sida "dhaqanka" laga yaqaano Xaradheere iyo gobollada ay degaan Markaas, xaajigan, afar-qooble ee Kheyre la yidhaahdo, shaadhkii iyo suitkii uu Norway kala yimid iyo wixii lacag ahaa ee uu Qatar ka helay ayey kasoo furteen. Ama waa ay kasoo furan doonaan hadii uu la sii joogo in muddo ah oo dambe. Oo ila-meereyso cajiib ah, oo aan dhamaad laheyn ayey u dhigayaan. Laakiin waxa aanba qabaa in ay ka xishoodeen oo ay tix-galiyeen shakhsiyadiisa, mar hadii aaney ku sameyn sidii ay yeeleen 1991 ee ay ku sameeyeen beeshiisa Deyniile dagta. Taas oo aheyd in "beesha" ay gabi ahaanteedba ay dhacaan oo ay Kuwait u bixiyaan. Maadaama Kuwait aheyd dal qanni ah oo si dhakhso ah oo fudud Saddam Xuseen ku qabsadey oo uu dhacay sanadkii 1990 bishiisii August. Markaas nimankan Iljeexda ee Galmudug degga, shaadhkaaga ka ilaasho, dowlad aad u dhisto hakuu dambeyse.

Khayre has failed. Even a child knows that this Sufi outlaw was hungry for power. He knew his rule was over if elections took place in Galmudug. Farmaajo is also pushing a well known " Budhcad Badeed" named Qoor Qoor as the future leader. The best option is for Khayre and company to swallow their pride, accept defeat and keep Xaaf to rule until a real reconciliation takes place in Galmudug. If he keep insisting on his failed policy, Khayre will create three presidents within the three main sub clans of GAlmudug. Nin Saaxiibkay ah ayaa yidhi isagoo kaftamaya, " Reer Dayniile ayaa maamul HG u Samaynaya waxay ahayd riyo beena".

This guy is history he surrenders and is going to retire and live his life. The mountain operation is over and Somaliland a usual and its people are united. No body can damage Somaliland.

Happy new year

The cutting and biting "irony" of seeing a man who his teeming kith and kin from Bay and Bakool regions who were known throughout the Somali peninsula as the hapless denizens of the "street-beggars" sort, talking about other folks being "rubbish" (or being acquainted with rubbish), is really a mighty sight to behold, really. After all, the "very definition" of "street begging" is someone who is very familiar with, or at least is comfortable with the "contemptible idea" of "making a living" (by way of seeking alms) from any "detritus-strewn-streets", or from any "rubbish-piled alleyways" of any city the world over in which you can think of it. Hence, as Somalis says: "Nin waliba wuxuu yahay ayuu ku moodaa". Taasna intaas ayaan ka odhanayaa. As for others "Neo-Kacaanist" (or as I like to call them, the old "defeated lot" of the Somali peninsula) are concern. In particularly like this Mr Culey chap and the other fellow by the name of Mr Ciyaar-jecel, all one can say to them is that it's pity that is all they are capable of doing it in here. Which in essence is very similar to what the then legendary Mr Salaan Carabey once said it to a particular Ina-Gumeed sort of a fellow of their kind of ilk. And what he said was: "......Hadaad hiil hinaastey aadse itaal u weydey, ma afkaad ku ciil-bixi, ileyn cidlaad ka hanjabeysaaye....." *************** I see that Ina-Gumeed sniffling ninny like you is still at it in waffling with odious gibberish at their worse of it around in here of SOL. Pity really. Given that you have not much improved with time. Well, as they say, a "cowardly low-born non-entities" like you are not only a "dime-dozen" in the Somali peninsula. But they are "destined" to be so that way. Hence, I shan't expect to see much better fist of an effort from the likes of you from here on out, I am afraid. So, carry on kiddo. ************ Suldaanka And Barwaaqo, Ilmaadeerayaal, salaan-sare. Midda kale sidaad aragteen hadhaagii f-aqashta ayaa ciil iyo cadho heysa darteed isku qarinaya qiiq iyo hadal tiris ay isleeyihiin ceebta heysata saaqidkii siyaasadda Soomaaliya ee Ina-Farmaajo, dadka reer-Muqdishu kaga sii jeediya. Markaas, waa naxli hadlayaan.

It won't do much for the average Somali. All it does is allow Somalia's corrupt government to borrow more money so that corrupt politicians can finally get very rich. It is a gimmick.

Do you think the Americans are unaware that Somaliland is just a smaller version of southern Somalia with just as much corruption, nepotism, mistrust among clans, violence, tribalism, religious extremism, etc?

In all seriousness, the tragedy of Somalis is our small-mindedness. Men like Axmed Gurey, Sayidka, Sheikh Barsane and Nasiib Buundo fought in the name of Islam or in the name of their Somalis and fought against common. And history shows and no one Maryooley can deny, the armies they commanded hail from all Somalis. We can question their methods but their goals were clear. Their history is Somali history!

This is what happens when you talk to the mirror. Breaking news from the horn by a man in the barren cold and isolated lands of canada. Give me a break.

You sound delusional.

It was always called Doollo for a over century. Haven't you guys heard of the famous poem by Cali Dhuux "Doqonkii "0" ahaa, Doollo laga qaadye Loo diid Dannood iyo hadduu, degi lahaa"

Suldaanka, Man, what historical day it was. I was there (right there in the crowd), I was attached to late Prof. Ibrahim Meygaag Samatar (AUN), as his note-taker in the meetings. There were endless political meetings of the SNM's high command (by Mr. Tuur, the Chairman, and the rest of the central committee). Particularly as to what to do in the light of what took place in the country and the total destruction that we had in our hand at the time. I was a graduate student in London (UCL), who as soon as I heard the country was liberated, I legged-off from London, took a flight to Djibouti, and I was in the ground in Hargeisa by mid-April. The country was like a horror-scene straight out from Hiroshima kind of destruction. But by the grace of God, it was in our SNM's hand and it was free, at last. What a historical day it was, indeed.

That is the future I guess.Nomadic lifestyle is unsustainable. Specially when rains have become sporadic, droughts recurrent and also the political environments is becoming less conducive to easy movement of people and animals. At the same time, agri-tech is becoming cheaper and more available to the small scale farmers. These are technologies that were once in the domain of the big boys in town with deep pockets. The know-how and the knowledge about new ways and methods of farming are becoming accessible to a lot of people. So it is inevitable that settled farming will win the day. For instance, camel farming is becoming more and more popular thesedays. It is more profitable when they are in a farm where they feed and water are guaranteed. They will give you guaranteed milk output and one can plan their finances accordingly. A man who returned from the diaspora came up with an innovative new way of farming. He rents only she-camels that are milking from nomads. The nomads get a guaranteed monthly income from their she-camel without worrying about the feed, water or health of the animal. This guy now has more than 5,000 she-camels that he doesn't own but rents them all.

It looks like the brave people of Xamar have had enough. Who will save him? Laftagaren the shoe shiner?

Hate to burst the “good feel” bubble but he is either mentally ill or he is coerced somehow.

Allah ha u naxarristo Ustaad Xudaydi. Here in my home , I have a volume 8 edition of " Bidhaan" a Somali international journal published by Mcalister collage with Ahmed Samatar and other like minded Somalis. It was 2008 and Ustaad Hudaydi had a chapter narrating his life and times. I even use some of those quotes here in SOL. In memory of Hudaydi, let me write here some excerpts of that interview. AIS: What form of transportation you took from Eden? a plane? Hudaydi: No. I took a boat to little coastal fishing village of Maydh. during those days there was a cohort of young educated and professional somali men who dominated social life in hargeisa. to cut down their uppity prominence, they were exiled to the remote outpost of dayaha, near Erigaabo. Among them were Abdisalam Hassan, Hassan cali Henry, ku cadeye and nine. AIS: who exiled them ? the colonial British? Hudaydi: No. They were posted by the new political and business class who became somewhat envious of this educated groups popularity .The assignment was to make this cohorts teach at the new intermediate school in Dayaha. At the Maydh , a custom man sent a word of this young man of maddening skill.The Dayaha associates sent me a vehicle (a nice Landrover) immediately. When I arrived , they requested me to9 arrange a play. The day was coincided with Eid celebrations and a football game against Burco. AIS: How long were you in Djibouti? Hudaydi: I had spent seven years in the 1960s. Later I will live in Djibouti another six years. AIS: When did you return in Somalia? Hudaydi: in fact, the French throw me out and I returned to Hargeisa some what unwittingly. THere I put togethera play with the title " Macal cume". I drafted a number of school teachers to participate. Among them Muhamed Hadraawi, Faisal Cumar Mushteeg, Mohamed Mooge and Abu Shiraa. AIS: Who were the singers and musicians in Hargeisa at this time? Hudaydi: this was late 1960s. Among them were individuals of exceptional abilities. Maandeeq, Magool, Guddudo Arwo, Saynab Bahsan, Farhiya Ali, Young Hibo Nuura, Mohamed Saleeban, Mohamed Mooge, Mohamed Ahmed, Mohamed Yusuf and musicians like Ali Fayruus, Mohamed SaidAli Dheere, Abdialhi Haamari and Mohamed Afweyne. AIS: Compared to other Somali Fuun centres like Mogadishu and Djibouti, how good was the talent pool in Hargeisa? Hudaydi: Generally speaking, when it comes to rhythm and therefore music, the southern Somalis by far were superior. Just think of the fantastic Huseen Banjuuni and Ahmed Naji , if not the second generation headed by the breathtaking Oud master , Daud Ali Mashaf. But, when you compare poetic composition and Luuq (singing)northern Somalis and Hargeisa was captivating. AIS: In the 1960s, how would you characterize the relationship between art and politics of independence? Hudaydi: A few years after 1960, the nationalist fever, which was high, begun to sag. It felt as if we entered post honeymoon period in which what was seemed like an era of limitless possibilities was disappearing. one could hear some anti-regime Heesayn (Song). AIS: What was the central points of disapproval by the artists? Hudaydi: In the beginning the main issue was rather petty.it related to a perception among some that the distribution of the ministerial appointments overlooked some kin groups. But one could see the potential for greater danger. , the beginning of the divisive manipulation of communal identity by individual greedy for self promotion. Still , this feeling was marginal. among the citizens. and many of us saw that way AIS: if, you assert, " self promotion " by the politically ambitious, why do you think the democratic and constitutional order laster only nine years (1960-1969).? Hudaydi: From my prospective, i think it come down to number of key elements : exaggerated expectations and a craving for unearned material privilege that began to blunt the daring and honourable creative mind and spirit.This was an early warning: if we, as a people, didn't see decolonization as the opening chapter of a long journey of hard work and nation building, the future will be a massive disappointment. Few were paying attention but the majority were intoxicated with easy pickings delivered by the new political order, and particularly, the arrival generous foreign aid. All in all a normalizing of of a corrupt small mindedness started to eclipse social art (FUUN) that moved listyerners to in to civic belonging. President Aadan Ade and A/risaq Haji hussen tried hard to resist , by example in leadership, a rising imbecility( Garaad Xumo) and equation of manliness ( Raganimo) with looting of the commons. Anyway, these words of unearned material gain and expecting foreign aid mentioned by Ustaad Hudaydi still persist among consecutive Somali leaders and generation. This are the time tested words I learned from Ustad Hudaydi. Will try to post more tomorrow, InshAllah. Allah ha u naxariisto.

Marwo oodka don't leak over the thread.

I even heard people dying in Ethiopia for unknown diseases. I can not accept that the only country in Africa who is bringing over a thousand Chinese a week, and as mony more transiting did not declare yet one single case of Coronavirus. Ethiopian airline is flying four major Chinese cities. They are probably hiding or not even testing.. The Iranians hided their cases and now people are dying. Over 200 died in Iran, yet the government declared 34 deaths. Ilaahayow naga hay.

In Somaliland we are simple people. Our armed forces are 'Ciidanka Qaranka' that is it. No Danab sh*t, or Haramacad crap or Shabeel bluff... just 'Ciidanka Qaranka Somaliland'. And our boys are loyal, patriotic and very effective at their work. Something that cannot be said about those with the many exotic named but actually incompetent to the core.

In fact, to transfer his dead body to Nairobi from Lagos, the clan members had to do 'Qaadhaan', due to the expensive Air service at the time. And after he got to Nairobi, he had to be flown to border town using a small aircraft. And then transported on truck to his final resting place. A long and undeginfied journey. He must have been glad to finally be rested, after several days of loading/unloading a dead body. In another sad but be-fitting death, was General Gaani who died in a hotel room in Nairobi. It took almost week and after the hotel management recieved complaints from other guest about the awful smell coming of Gaani's room.

This is his therapy session.

I remember the Caydiid-Cali Mahdi fights. Apart from secessionists, who are grievance driven, other Somalis change sides often. So, these morons will be singing their tune tomorrow. What I feel sorry for is the masses who have no sense of agency.

Farmaajo had a good week. Presenting himself as a simple man who understand situation gives him advantage. Unlikely other governments, his government got few things right. They hired some good people, specially Bayle and Omar knows what they are doing. The reality is both Farmaajo and Khayre lived civilized countries and understand the game compare to others.

Oodweyne calling people clannish LOL. As for Farmaajo, apology is meaningless really, at least in the Somali context.

Abiy Axmed Cali ayaa far u fiiqay, uguna yeeray Muuse Marqaanweyne Muqayil. Orod uu ku tagay meesha, even without asking why, a la cunug yar ninac loo taagay. Xabashi sida loogu cabsado, loo caabudo iyo loo ixtiraamo wax la tartami karo ma leh dying marqaan-induced secessionists.

Anigu kolay waxaan u soo joogay kolkii ay sarta ka dul dhiseen meesha. Laakin waa macquul meesha qabriga ah lafteeduba 80s la sameeyay. Cuqdad nafsi waa cajiib. Quraanka ilaahay dad gaar ah ayaa ilaaliya. Dhawaan waxa la arkay dhawr App oof Quran Kariim lagu sheegay laakin dhawr aayadood la khalday. Waxa helay nin indho'la oo wiilkiisa quraan u dhigaayay. The IQ clan sidaa si la mid ah ayaa taariikhda Somalida laga been abuuro oo dhan u soo qabanaa. Dhawaan waxa Twitter ku arkaayay niman @galbeeditolkiis ah oo Ugaaskii Ciise 150 sano ka hor sawir laga qaaday intay jarjareen oo si kale yidhaahdeen ayay ku sheegeen Ugaaskii Awdal Clan Clan. Internetka meel walba waxay soo dhigaan niman Fardo Fuushan oo ku sheegeen waa Moxamed Cabdille Xassan iyo ciidankiisi. Laakin sawiradda laftoodu waa suldaankii iyo beeshala IQ rag ka mid ah oo Fardo fuushan. Been abuurka intaa leeg, qof aan isku kalsoonayn ayuunba samayn kara.

Out of the three, only one is original and documented in that historic spot. The Darrod tomb was built in 80s and the Sammaron tomb is even more recent. You can not put them in the same sentence as a historic Maqām worthy of pilgrimage (siyaaro) such as that of Weliyullaahi the Saint of Mait

this is not the first time Mr Osman has launched a Somalia-focused political party. way back in 2009, he launched Hanoolato Somalia National Party in London and that was a non-starter and a major failure. here's a video of this one man show:

There is a reason you are known throughout the forum as a habitual liar. Literally every single post of yours is peppered with the most obvious lies, and whenever challenged you bring up your laughable "someone told me..." excuse, or you flee the discussion never to return. It is a shame someone at your age is feeling such ciil that you see no qualms about spreading misinformation so openly. Sanaag had only 3 districts, namely Ceerigaabo, Ceel Afweyn and Badhan. Unlike the BS you concocted above, I am happy to present official sources backing up my statements, even from your beloved kacaan: The official paper of the Somali Democratic Republic published the official list of all regions in the country and the all their respective districts in 1986. This was in preparation for the presidential elections announced: As everyone can see, there were only the three named districts in Sanaag at the end of 1986, and Las Qorey village actually came under Badhan district as highlighted. And before you try and claim the source is doctored, it is directly taken from the archives of the Roma Tre University of Italy. There you have it, another one of your lies easily exposed. Are you not tired of constantly being humiliated like this in your old age?

Very weak logic. Puntland has a deal with Mogadishu, are they doing better than Somaliland? Sometimes I wonder, do Somalilanders with such weak disposition lack intellect, vision... or both? We in Somaliland have so much to work on, from corruptions to tribalism to management of resources... you name it. But a deal with Mogadishu will never be the answer. Have some self-respect, Somaliland is one of the five Somali regions, the first independent Somali state, you would not seek anything from Mogadishu more than you would Djibouti, Jigjiga or Garissa. You are on equal footing with the four other Somali regions, not a renegade part of one of them. For anyone delusional enough to imagine a deal with Mogadishu being the answer, I reiterate.. look at Puntland. You're almost as delusional looking towards Mogadishu for your solutions as Mogadishans are when they look towards AMISOM/UN/Ethiopia for their solutions.

Not only he keep stealing like most of Kulmiye but also uses the RRU to arrest and intimidate people three in the morning. The British government should be sued by these victims because these soldiers do not go out to fight rebels or the so called terrorist they were supposed to retained for, but enter houses from the window like burglars in the middle of the night. THey beat the people arrest them without charge and go back to their camps.These terrorists are paid by the British to abuse people. The Kulmiye gang had sold every bus stand, government house or open street in Borama. Can you imagine that they even sold the office of the governor and now he is meeting people in hotels or other government offices. This Zaylici guy is cashing too. He took a huge chunk of my families land and said they were building presidential guest house. After the family spole in the media, the RRU came 3 in the morning and beat both men and women . My sister in law tried to arm some of the clan members and fight him, but she was persuaded by elders to go to court and lobby to get the money for the land. THere are no courts .finally after years of runaround, she left the whole area and went to Mogadishu. Waar xageed ku aragtay dawlad dadkii dhilkooda maalin cad boobaysa? . Also they target those who has families in the diaspora opposed

Mt. Ducaale assumes that this region is another Kenyan county. Everyone who is present today has crossed a line, especially the former presidents Hassan Sheikh and Shariif Ahmed. THey became the weak guests of a feast organized by foreign government in their own countries. Xaflad Keenya ku soo diyaarisay dalkoodii gudahiisa ayey marti ka noqdeen. Farmaajo, heshiis gal oo isdhiib ama hawshan ka jawaab. Labadaa wax ka dhaxeeya ma jirto.

You assume he has the capacity to learn.

I am not a fan of musicians and in fact don't listen to music anymore but this is an interesting case of bad PR. It is the most basic of rules in business that one should never alienate one's customers. A musician should sing for Xamar when in Xamar, for Galmudug when in Galmudug, for seccession when in Hargeisa, and for a warlord when in the warlord's house party. The musician's motto should be "loyal only to the dollar".

Dee waa sida shiinaha oo lagu sheego inay 52 qoomiyadood leeyihiin. But they all look the same to me. Only their national attire differ in colour and design.

Another lie. Deni did not meet "some of the highest officials of the Emirates", he met a low-level bureaucrat, namely the Deputy Director-General of the Abudhabi Chamber of commerce: Worthy of note is that the only reason Deni got this meeting was because he lied and said that there is a possibility of Puntland investing in.. wait for it.. Abudhabi! Dont take my word for it, here is the official Emirates News Agency news item: Meanwhile Biixi met... Try to invent better "sources" next time

See, that’s the problem with your myopic thinking, Dalmar. You worry too much about what others want but you rarely ever speak of what you want. Now tell us, are you opposed to federalism because Puntland wants it or do you have your own reasons that have nothing to do with your silly effeminate xenophobia against Puntland? Also if it Centralism that you might want, then why are you not supporting the Nabad&Nolol government currently in charge who are it’s champions? C’mon Dalmar, bal maskaxda tuuji oo noo sheeg mabda aad rabtid dalkeena inuu ka hir galo?
