There is a silver lining in all of this. This is the first time in a long time we see Somali leaders from different clans united for a cause (federalism) they believe is bigger than their personal ambitions. It is a good thing.

I believe Awdal got an important minister, but Duriyada family got nothing. That is quite disappointing.

Good Muslims.

Mogadishu in the 60s and 70s.

I think it is all about Koombe and since *** and *** got two ministers, it is fine for that family. However, Borama Clan Shiniile Clan (Djibouti) Gaashaamo Clan They are all missing from the list Dalmar1 posted. Something is not adding up.

Yes, let us do some digging. The list you posted has members from Mogadishu clan so all is not clear at this moment.

Dalmar1, your list has only 22 members. The total I've seen is 27. Before we jump to conclusions, let us do some research and find out the clans these ministers/directors hail from. If what you listed is true and important Somali clans in the region are totally ignored, we can assume@Abtigiis has failed in his duty to bring people together.

Fascinating speech.

Madoobe is a tyrant. The sooner he is ousted, the better.

Saalax, what do you think will happen in Sanaag if the next President of Somaliland is Cirro or someone else from his subclan? Will the locals start becoming loyal citizens of Somaliland again? Is that all it would take?

Dear Mr. Abey, we Somalis know that Illey was always Ethiopian state-sponsored terrorist, and his usefulness ended after he attacked your Oromo expansionists. We get it. Fadlan, stop riding the moral high horse when there are Somali mothers living without breasts on their chest because of Oromo brutality. When the fun times are over, your friend Lema, will also see justice one day. Abtigiis, please pass this message to your boss.

He was Somali. That is just enough.

If you were sick and desperate, would you care who is playing as long as you get the treatment you need? Take him to Isreal if that is where he will get the treatment he needs.

Old Observer is actually Somali.

Lasanood residents comment on Ali Sandule's health

Puntland offers free treatment to Ali Sandule. I think his family should take him there if Puntland is willing to help.

Well, the locals can finally get Omega 3 diet to boost their brain power.

Sad to watch. May Allah give him speedy recovery.

Farmaajo and co studied the art of manipulating the people into accepting crappy performance.

That is the one. @Abtigiisis not joking around.

Why would Somaliland arrest them now when the same men were freely roaming the region when Illey was President?

Congratulations @Abtigiis

She may be related to our own Saalax? Very proud of her. Well done!!!
