HARGEISA,Republic of Somaliland. The Government of Somaliland will partly cater for the funeral expenses including the cost of transporting the body of the late musician Mohamed Suleiman Tubeh who passed away on Tuesday 11th March in Germany. The deputy minister for information while briefing the media in Berbera hinted that the Government would respect the wishes of the deceased singer as stated in his will adding that prior arrangements have been made to give him a state sendoff. The deputy minister for information Hon. Abdiwahid Abdikadir Abdirahman delivered the Government's plans in the presence of family & friends of the late musician and in the company of communal elders' religious leaders and regional administrators stressing that the deceased musician hailed from Berbera and would be buried as his wishes. The deputy minister said, "Tough the late Tubeh was absent from the country for quite a long period, he had however maintained contact with his relatives & family in Berbera as is evidenced in his will and as a Government we shall offer a supporting hand to the bereaved family in fulfilling the wishes of the popular music artist of the period before the aftermath of the failed union with the south". http://www.somalilandsun.com/index.php/community/5259-somaliland-late-musician-tubeh-to-be-accorded-a-national-funeral

Its not up the UKIP or the English people to decide about Scottish independence. The date has already being set for Scotland to leave the UK or remain a part of Great Britain . "referendum on whether Scotland should be an independent country will take place on Thursday 18 September 2014.Following an agreement between the Scottish Government and the United Kingdom Government, the Scottish Independence Referendum Bill, setting out the arrangements for this referendum, was put forward on 21 March 2013,[4] passed by the Scottish Parliament on 14 November 2013 and received Royal Assent on 17 December 2013. The question to be asked in the referendum will be "Should Scotland be an independent country?" as recommended by the Electoral Commission" ON The repbulic of Somaliland, the somalilanders have already chosen their future as a separate republic and will never share a Union with Italian Colonized Somaliya. Time for the people of somaliya to respect the borders of republic of Somaliland just like they respect the borders of Kenya, Ethiopia and even Uganda. We need less tribal talk and more respect for international borders and signed historical Bills which both Somaliland and Somaliya have signed. Somaliland May Soon Become a Recognized Country by Aman H.D. Obsiye Thursday, April 25, 2013 Introduction The Republic of Somaliland re-declared its independence on May 18th, 1991, therefore removing itself from Somalia proper. I say re-declared its independence because on June 26th, 1960 it initially gained independence from Great Britain and then voluntarily joined into a union with Somalia Italiana(Italian Somaliland) on July 1st, 1960, to create the Somali Republic. Since re-declaring its independence, Somaliland has been able to govern itself peacefully as a functioning country with an independent judiciary, free press, distinctive currency (Somaliland shilling), and other attributes of national governance. Since 1991, Somaliland has had four presidents with the latter two being elected in open elections that was deemed free and fair by international observers. I had the pleasure of observing their 2010 Presidential election. Somaliland justifies its independence mainly on two points: (1) it was previously an independent recognized country, State of Somaliland, from 06/26/1960-07/01/1960, and (2) its people where brutally victimized by Somalia’s dictatorial ruler, Siad Barre (1969-91). It is no secret that gross human rights violations were inflicted upon the Isaaq tribe by Barre’s regime. Over fifty thousand innocent people died from the onslaught simply because of their tribal affiliation, what I call Africa’s Other Genocide. The Montevideo Convention stipulates four elements for statehood: (1) a permanent population; (2) a defined territory; (3) government; and (4) capacity to enter into relations with the other states. The two main legal theories concerning statehood are the declarative theory and the constitutive theory. The former theory stipulates that sovereignty must be declared by the respective state and the respective state must meet the four elements in the Montevideo Convention. The latter theory simply states that another recognized sovereignty must publicly recognize the existence of the respective state. Under the Montevideo Convention and the declarative theory, Somaliland currently exists as an official country. No country has recognized Somaliland as of yet, therefore it does not qualify as a country under the constitutive theory. Why Recognition May Be Imminent Recently, Somaliland’s President Mohamoud Silanyo has visited Ankara (April 13th) and London (April 17th) per official invitations. He is currently in Washington D.C. per official invitation from Obama’s Administration to meet senior officials and members of the US Congress. One must wonder why President Silanyo is being courted by the world powers, while the other regional presidents within Somalia proper are not. Somaliland President Silanyo speaking at the Atlantic Council in Washinton D.C. Also, when asked about the meeting between himself and Somalia’s President, and the Ankara Communique their respective governments signed, President Silanyo has stated that “our dialogue with Somalia is on a two countries basis . . . .” In addition, while speaking at the Atlantic Council in D.C. (April 22nd), President Silanyo stated that “Somalia and Somaliland can and should be equal partners.” It seems that the Somaliland’s aspiration for recognition may soon come. Mogadishu now has an official government recognized by the community of nations (e.g. US, UK, etc.) and various international organizations (e.g. World Bank, IMF, etc.), its government is no longer transitional. This allows the current Mogadishu government to legally grant Hargeisa (Somaliland’s capital) official recognition; this would not have been binding in the past with the transitional governments. The parent country, Somalia, may be the first country to recognize Somaliland. The international community seems to be facilitating this process. The Communique’s third point hints at this: “the Dialogue is between the Federal Government of Somalia and the Government of Somaliland. The international community that is supporting this process will only provide facilitation when is needed.” The Two Likely Scenarios for Recognition The first scenario will be similar to the Addis Abba-Asmara model or the Khartoum-Juba model. In the former model, Addis Abba, the parent country, recognized Asmara as its own sovereign entity after Eritrea held a referendum. In this model Hargeisa would host a national referendum, in which the majority vote would obviously be for Somaliland statehood. In the latter model, Khartoum, the parent country, entered into a unity government with Juba for a said period of time. After the said period of time, Juba held a referendum which allowed its citizens to choose between statehood or continued unity with Khartoum. After Juba chose statehood, Khartoum recognized it as a sovereign state. In this model Hargeisa would enter into a national unity government with Mogadishu for a said period of time, and afterwards host a referendum. The second scenario will be similar to the London-model. The United Kingdom consists of four independent countries (i.e. England, Scotland, N. Ireland, and Wales), which collectively make up the sovereign state, the UK. In this model Somaliland would be recognized as an independent country with its borders being the former British Somaliland. Somalia would continue to be recognized as an independent country with its borders now being the formerItaliana Somalia. Together, Somaliland and Somalia would collectively make up the sovereign state (e.g. the Somali Union). The second scenario has previously taken place between Somaliland and Somalia. The legislature of the State of Somaliland passed the “Law of Union Between Somaliland and Somalia” on June 27th, 1960 [see article 1 (a)]. To conclude, the Somalis are part of both the African and Arab civilizations, and both civilizations have witnessed the disintegration of unions. From 1982-89, Senegal and Gambia collectively made up the Senegambia Confederation, and from 1958-61, Egypt and Syria collectively made up the United Arab Republic. If Somaliland and Somalia decide to disintegrate their union, they will not be the first of their respective civilizations. Regardless of which scenario ensues, Somaliland may soon become a recognized country. Aman H.D. Obsiye is a law student at the University of Minnesota, specializing in International Law. He served as an official international election observer in Somaliland’s 2010 Presidential election.

Surely the man is going to be buried where he has told his family before his dead. This should not be a political question but a time for his family and all whom know him to be left alone and say goodbye to him. Inailah wa innalh rajicuun.

Kkkk Xaaji ka daa daadkan wadnaha istaga hadeey maqlaan somaliland. Good to see the message of a recognized somaliland is being heard around the world loud and clear.

" african and europeans in somaliya" we dobt want peace in sonaliya we want to stay keep the people under colonization while we kill them, afterwards we blame alshabab and call them all terrorist keep the gravy train going".

So sad to see certain people think that the ugandians, burudians kenyans or ethiopians collatively know as African forces in Somalia are there to bring peace, these countries armies are in Somaliya to profit from the misery of the somali people and continue their presence until thre millions of dollar dry up. No sane soldier wants to sacrife his life for a fight he has no gain from. The entire war is funded not to bring peace but to contain somalia war inside the country. Makistar i can assure that Ethiopians are the same people slaugthering innocent children in schools and doing criminals activities as under A. Yusuf and ghedi , please understand that this entire mashruuc is a show and the only people paying the price are the innocent somali civilians. Alshabab would not have exsist if the war on islam was not the first priority of the west. Looking at the bigger picture instead of thinking that ur clan is in power , afterall under colonization one has zero independence.

The UK union I think willl be saved on the bases that the British Goverment have been willing to face the question of scottish independence head on compared to many other countries the UK goverment have followed the rules and have even given Scotland economic advantages compared to the rest of United Kingdom . In the Somaliland - Somaalia case I genuely believe that race is gone Somaliland will not be able to work with the Somaliya Goverment or people once a genocide had occured the trust between people is gone. It doesnt help ether that the Somaliya people gov are working against the Independence of Republic of Somaliland , history has a long memory and the somalia gov are in the wrong side too many times on this issue.

Souleiman claimed gold in 3:37.52 as Ethiopian Aman Wote, who ran right behind Souleiman for much of the race and briefly took the lead as he made a bid for golden glory with just over 300 meters remaining, ended up a deserving second claiming his first global medal in 3:38.02. Defending champion Morocan Abdalaati Iguider of Morocco took his third straight World Indoor medal (he also won silver in 2010) in 3:38.21 – ahead of Kiwi Nick Willis who was fourth on the track in 3:28.47. Willis was eventually DQd for stepping inside of the rail on the last turn.

This author do not understand somali culture but once again a white man is writing about africa and africans. Sick and tired of them and their arrogant ways. If I can correct him , nobody in somaliya call eacother nick names only close friends and people who have know-ed you for life can call you by your nick name. Also most nicknames are positive example: Ducayse( praiseworthy ) noorow ( enligthen one) qalbi safi ( pure heart) Banadri ( from Ancient Bandiri region ) Zelacyi( from Old city of Zeylac and so on. Also note the nickname you have been given Timco Cade ( White hair) characterizes you having blond hair . To the Author instead of assuming that you know somali culture ask before you write this gabberish stuff again, because nobody will take serious except the bloody colonialist institution of the BBC.

Talmook , bal ku naso waarakan. Ileen waad xanaaqdey kkkk.

Hahahahaha ,qosol walee .naxarees daarana, bal muu iska tacsiyo ilen fareenta qof ba si bey uso gadhaa, somali iyo hadal adag weey isla socdaan.

I think the man is right on every point he has made sofar if you a northener you have no business in The South poltics, ahmed samatar is not the only one who have lost hope in koonfur , proffesor ali khaliif Galdh was on tv saying he feares for his life and the is coming from a man who has allways belived in somali unity. I genuenly believe Samatar is dealing with shock to the system when everything you belived is confronted with the moqadisho mafia siayasad. Samatar belived in somali weyn politcs for over 30 years long time wallhey.

What a weird headline , the man has been in one movie only ofcourse he is not gonna be a multimillion earning star right away but he is following his dream thats whats important.
