Qeybtii 2-aad. Halkan ka aqriso qeybta 1-aad. Bishii Saddexaad 21 keedii 2012: Sarkaalka booliiska ahaa waxa uu Cali u soo jeediyey fikir ah in heshiis ay kala saxeexdaan labadoodu; heshiiskaas oo ah wakaalasho uu Cali u ogolaanayo AK in uu wakiil uga noqdo buuggiisa, sii uu awood sharci ugu yeesho dhammaystirka heshiiska daabacadda buugga ee shirkadda la’ la gelayo. Bilihii xigay oo dhan, Cali Cumar Adeer waxa uu ka shaqaynayey dhammaystirka buuggiisa, isaga AK u diri jiray nuskhado muujinaya tusmada iyo hadba cutubyada uu dhammeeyo ee buugga uu qoraalkiisa waday ka mid ah. Ugu dambayntii AK waxa uu Cali u muujiyey in sheekadu gebogebo marayso, sidaa awgeed waxa uu u soo jeediyey in ay kulmaan oo uu Cali si rasmi ah AK ugu saxeexo heshiis wakiilasho oo labadooda u dhexeynaya. Waxa uu ka dhaadhiciyey in si uu wadaxaajoodka heshiiska daabicista u sii wado, suuqgeyntana uga masuul noqdo, ay qasab tahay in AK uu haysto dhukumanti caddaynaya in ninka buugga lihi uu wakiishay. Kulankan oo noqonayey kii ugu horreeyey ee dhex maray Cali iyo sarkaalka dharcadka ah, waxa ay ku heshiiyeen in uu ka dhaco meel Soomaaliya ka baxsan, oo uu soo sheegi doono AK. Cali waxa uu aaminsanaa in Kulanka kharashka ku baxaya uu bixinayo AK, goobta la tegeyo iyo sifada sharci ee lagu tegeyana AK uu soo dhammaystirayo. Bishii Afaraad 2012: Sarkaalkii booliiska ahaa waxa uu Cali Cumar Adeer u soo sheegay in kulankoodu uu noqonayo magaalada Dubai dalka Isutagga Imaaraadka Carabta. Ballantaas waa uu aqbalay Cali, laakiin muddo bilo ah ayaa aanay haddana xidhiidhin. Bishii sagaalaad 11 keedii, sannadkii 2012 ka, ayaa uu Cali sarkaalka booliiska ah u diray farriin email ah, oo uu ku soo weydiinayo in ballaantoodii halkeedii tahay. Jawaabta uu sarkaalku u soo dirayna waxa ay noqotay in ballanta hawsheedii uu ku jiro. Waxa kale oo uu sarkaalku u sheegay Cali in looga baahan yahay nuskhad dhammaystiran oo ka mid ah buugga uu doonayo in uu qoro, si ay shirkadda daabicista ula bilaabaan wada xaajoodka kama damabysta ah. Laakiin Mar dambe ayaa uu haddana sarkaalkii booliiska ahaa Adeer ku wargeliyey in uu bisha shanaad u bixi doono Hindiya, waxa aanu u soo jeediyey in halka ay ku kulmayaan ay noqoto jasiiradda Mauritius oo uu ugu sheegay meel nasashada iyo raaxada ku fiican. 31kii Bishii Shanaad ee 2013 ka, ayaa sarkaalkii dharcadda ahaa iyo Cali ay degeen kuna kulmeen huteelka raaxada ee Hilton. Booliiska Kanada ayaa bixiyey kharashka ku baxay safarka Cali, oo ay ku jiraan tigidhka diyaaradda, kharashaadka kale ee safarka iyo hudheelka oo aad qaali u ahaa. Sarkaalka oo markii dambe ee Cali maxkamadda la geeyey, maragga ku furay, ayaa marka uu ka sheekaynayey kulankaas ugu horreeyey ee ay ku yeesheen Mauritius, waxa uu sheegay in Cali aad ugu farxay kulankaas, “Waa uu dhoolla caddaynayey, markii aanu kulannay waa uu igu dhegey oo aanu hab isa siinnay” ayaa uu yidhi, isaga oo intaas ku sii daray, “Aad iyo aad ayaa uu ugu faraxsanaa in uu i arko” Kulan quraac ah oo ay huteelka ku yeesheen ayaa uu Cali ku saxeexay dhukumanti caddaynaya in uu wakiishay AK. Isla kulankan waxa uu Cali u sheegay sarkaalka dharcadda ahaa, in sheekada afduubka aanu marka hore ka mid ahayn, balse uu dhowr saacadood kaddib afduubka, soo geliyey mid ka mid ah ragga Amanda Lindhout afduubay. Waxa uu sheegay in kooxda afduubku ay ka codsatay in uu u noqdo afceliye (Turjumaan) iyo dillaal / mukhallas kooxda afduubka metela si ay iyaguna khidmad u siiyaan. Laakiin Cali waxa uu qirtay in markaas wixii ka dambeeyey uu noqday, ‘Maskaxda’ ay ku socoto kooxda afduubku. Cali waxa uu sheegay in uu isagu la haystayaasha ka duubay muuqaalkii fiidyowga ahaa ee talefishanka Aljazeera sii daayey, isla markaana isagu ka shaqeeyey in cajaladdaas Fiidyowga ahi gaadho talefishanka. Kulankaas ka dhacay jasiiradda Mauritius ayaa ay Cali iyo AK ku kala saxeexdeen heshiiskii wakaalashada buugga, oo uu ku jiro qodob sheegaya in heshiiskani uu yahay sir labadooda oo keliya u dhexeysa. Kaddib waxa uu Cali dib ugu soo noqday Soomaaliya. Illaa markan Cali Cumar Adeer ma’ uu dareemin in cidda uu la ballamay ay tahay booliiska federaalka ee Kanada, oo ay iyagu ka soo shaqeeyeen sharciga uu ku tegeyo Mauritius iyo tigidhka diyaaradda uu Soomaaliya ka soo raacay. Waxaa ka maqnayd runta ah in booliiska Kanada ay xidhiidh gaar ah la sameeyeen maamulka jasiiradda Mauritius, si loo fududeeyo safarka Cali. Waxa uu AK u haystay saaxiib caawinaya, ama nin dillaalis u socda. Waxa uu ku dagmay hadalka uu AK u sheegay ee ay ka mid tahay, in uu dalka Kanada ku leeyahay shirkad latalinta iyo warisgaadhsiinta ka shaqaysa oo guulo badan ka gaadhay shaqadeeda, magacna ku leh dalka. Waxa uu u sheegay in ujeedada caawintiisani ay tahay in ay kala shaqaystaan, maadaama oo sida uu sheegay ay shirkaddiisaasi khidmad u goosanayso boqolkiiba 15, ka mid ah faa’iidada ka soo baxda buugga uu sheegay in lacag badan laga helayo. Sidaa awgeed Cali cabsidii oo dhan ayaa ka baxday, si buuxdana waa uu u aaminay AK, waana sababta uu si xor ah oo faahfaahsan uga sheekeeyey kaalinta uu ku lahaa afduubka Amanda Lindhout iyo ninka ay wada socdeen. Booliiska Kanada hababka baadhista ee uu isticmaalo waxaa ka mid ah, hab isagu uu hal abuuray oo lagu magacaabo, ‘Xeeladda Kanadiyaanka’ oo ah habraac baadhiseed uu caan ku yahay; Baadhayaasha booliiska ayaa iyaga oo cid kale sheeganaya dembiilaha la samaynaya xidhiidh aakhirka sabab u noqonaya in dembiiluhu uu kalsooni u qaado isaga oo aan ogeyn in ay booliis yihiin. Waxa aanu ka warramayaa sheekooyin marag u ah in uu dembiga lagu tuhmayey ku jiray. Hababkaas waxaa ka mid ah in booliisku uu dhiso kooxo iyo shirkado arrimo sharcidarro ah ka shaqeeya, kaddibna qofka lagu casuumo in uu xubin ka noqdo, sida xadista khadadka taleefannada, bangiyada iyo iibka hubka iwm. Hadallada maragga ah ee uu ka warramo ayaa laga duubayaa, kaddibna maxkamadda lagu geynayaa eedaysanaha. Qareenka difaacaya Cali ayaa sheegay in booliiska Kanada uu habkaas u raacay fashilinta dembiilenimada Cali. “Waxa ay sameeyeen basaas Cali u sheegtay in uu leeyahay shirkad buugaagta daabacda.” Ayaa uu yidhi qareenku. Cali kalsooni aad u badan ayaa uu u qaaday sarkaalkan dharcadda ah ee uu isagu rayidka moodayey, mar kasta oo ay xidhiidhayaanna waxa uu ku sheegi jiray, ‘Walaalkii’ ama ‘Saaxiibkiisii koowaad” Bishii laba iyo tobnaad ee 2013 ka: ayaa sarkaalka booliiska ahaa waxa uu Cali u sheegay in uu dhammaaday wada xaajoodkii daabicista buugga ee uu shirkadda kula jiray. Waxa keliya ee hadhayna uu yahay in heshiiskii kama dambaysta ahaa kala saxeexdaan shirkadda iyo qoraaga buuggu. Farriinta uu Cali Cumar u soo diray ayaa uu AK ku sheegay in ay qasab noqonayso in uu yimaaddo Kanada oo uu isagu heshiiska saxeexo, waxa aanu ugu bishaareeyey in marka uu heshiiska saxeexo la siin doono 10 kun oo doolar oo hormarin ah. Intaas kuma uu koobnaan ee Sarkaalka booliiska ah oo iska dhigaya nin u soo dabcay codsiyada aan kala joogsiga lahayn ee uu Cali kaga baryayey in uu ka caawiyo sidii uu Kanada magangelyo uga heli lahaa, waxa uu u sheegay in lacagta xad dhaafka ah ee uu buuggaas ka heli doonaa ay xal u noqon doonto dhibaatadaas. Isaga oo ku hunguri geliyey in marka uu Kanada hawsha saxeexa u yimaaddo uu isku dayo in uu magangelyo dalbado. Laba sano ayaa uu AKA hakiyey xidhiiidhkii uu la’ lahaa Cali, laakiin booliiska Kanadana weli kama uu daalin qabashada Cali Cumar. Sababta ugu badan ee ay u dabasocdaan ma’ay ahayn in ay qabtaan oo keliya, balse waxaa la doonayey in saaxiibtinimada Cali iyo AK adkaato, kaddibna uu Cali ka sheekeeyo arrimo la xidhiidha afduubkii Amanda Lindhout, si hadhow hadalladaasi u noqdaan marag maxkamadda la horgeeyo. Waana sida ay ugu dambayntii u dhacday. Mar dambe ayaa uu AK la soo hadlay Cali, waxa aanu u sheegay in xanuun wadnaha ahi ku soo booday, oo uu sababtaas awgeed dhakhtar u galay. Sababtaasna ay u hakatay hawshii buugga ee uu la waday. Waxa se uu u ballanqaaday in marka uu ka soo reeyo ay dib u bilaabi doonaan. Runtu waa ay ahayd in AK aanu wadne xanuun helin, wax dhibaato caafimaad ahina ku iman. Balse markii uu booliiska Kanada dhammaystirtay caddaymihii uu ka urursanayey Cali, ee uu hubsaday in uu marag buuxa haysto, waxaa timi su’aasha ah, sidee ugu habboon sharci ahaan ee Cali lagu keeni karaa dalka Kanada. Sababta uu AK u hakiyey geeddisocodkii wada xaajoodku waxa ay ku timid dalab ka yimi xeeldheereyaasha booliiska oo dejinayey habka ugu fiican farsamo ahaan iyo sharci ahaa ee ninkan lagu keeni karo Kanada. 9kii Bishii lixaad, 2015: Ayaa ugu dambayntii Cali la keenay Kanada, waxa uu ka soo degey garoonka diyaaradaha ee tuulaha Halifax, kaddib diyaarad gaar ah ayaa toos loogu qaaday illaa magaalada Ottawa ee caasimadda Kanada. Cali weli waxa uu u haystaa in hawsha uu Kanada u yimi ay tahay in la dhammaystiro saxeexa daabicista buuggiisa. Waxaa Ottawa ku soo dhoweeyey AK oo ay ku kulmeen huteel la dejiyey oo ku yaalla garoonka diyaaradaha. Kulankan, AK waxa uu Cali u sii qaaday nuskhad ka mid ah buugga ay qortay Amanda Linhout oo uu hadyad soo dhoweyn ah uga dhigay. Ninkii Cali markii uu buuggii Amanda arkay ayaa uu furfurmay. Waxa uu sarkaalka dharcadda ah uga sheekeeyey wax badan oo kale oo ku saabsan afduubkii Amanda iyo ninkii ay jaalka ahaayeen. Waxa uu sheegay in uu jecel yahay in uu la kulmo Amanda Lindhout oo uu raalli gelin buuxda ka siiyo kaalintii uu ku lahaa afduubkeeda. Sarkaalka booliiska ah oo sida aynu hore u soo aragnay bilowgii sheegtay in uu wakiil u yahay Amanda Lindhout iyo qoyskeeda, ayaa si uu Cali ugu sii dhiirrigeliyo in uu faahfaahin dheeraad ah bixiyo, waxa uu u sheegay in gabadhaasi ay mar horeba cafiday. Bishii Lixaad tobankeedii, 2015 kii: Sarkaalkii dharcadda ahaa iyo Cali ayaa mar kale kulmay. Waxa ay ku kulmeen qolka shirarka ee huteel ku yaalla magaalada Ottawa. Laakiin markan Kulanku labadooda oo keliya ma’ uu ahayn. Sarkaal kale oo ka tirsan waaxda dembi baadhista ee booliiska Kanada ayaa ku soo biiray kulannada Cali iyo AK. Sarkaalkan dharcadda ah ee cusub magaciisa waxaa Cali loogu sheegay ‘Chris’ oo ah agaasimihii shirkadda daabacaysa buugga. AK waxa uu Cali u sheegay in shirkadda daabacista uu magaceedu yahay ‘Catalina Publishing’ laakiin waxaa xiise leh in shirkadda lafteedu aanay jirin oo uu magacani ahaa mid been ah oo uu booliisku sameeyey. Qolka uu ka dhacayey shirkan saddex geesoodka ah waxaa lagu rakibay kamarado maqal iyo muuqaal ah oo qarsoodiya. Markii la wada fadhiistay, waxaa lagu bilaabay isbarashadii; oo ah in Cali Cumar uu yahay qoraaga buugga, halka uu AK isku sheegay wakiilka Cali Cumar ee hadda kaddib hawsha buugga la sii wadi doona shirkadda daabicista. Chris, waxa uu isaguna isku sheegay agaasimaha fulinta ee shirkadda ‘Catalina Publishing’. Intaas kaddib, Chris ayaa faahfaahin buuxda ka bixiyey heshiiska daabacista buugga ee ay ka doonayaan, oo ay ku jirto qaabka lacagta loo kala qaadanayo, cidda yeelanaysa xuquuqda daabacista buugga, sida uu noqonayo xaqa lahaanshiyaha ee buugga iyo waxa burin kara, iyo sida wixii muran ah ee soo baxa lagu kala baxayo. Lacagta guud ee buugga laga siinayo Cali oo 234 kun oo doolar ahayd, ayaa waxaa heshiiska ku jiray in 10 kun oo xaqal qalinka saxeexa ah la markaba la siinayo Cali. Intaas oo keliya Cali lagalama hadlin, ee waxa uu sarkaalka booliiska dharcadda ah ee ‘Chris’ kala sheekaystay suurtagalnimada in mustaqbalka ay galaan heshiisyo buugaag kale uu qorayo Cali iyo weliba in filim dhukumanteri ah ay ka sameeyaan qisada afduubkuu Amanda Lindhout. La soco qeybta saddexaad Insha Allah… W/Q: Kamaal A. Cali

Madaxweynaha ayaa yiri “Argagixisadu waxa ay ka macaashaan khilaafka ka dhex jira bulshada, gaar ahaan wada shaqeyn la’aanta culumada diinta iyo hormuudka bulshada. Sidaas darteed, waa in idinka oo mideysan mar kasta aad u iftiimisaan bulshada in dagaalka aan kula jirno argagixisada uu yahay jihaad waajib nagu wada ah.” “Shacabka Soomaaliyeed waxa ay hibo u leeyihiin dhaqan sharaf leh oo waafaqsan diinteena suubban ee Islaamka, balse waxaa ku soo duulay kuwo ujeedkoodu yahay in ay tirtiraan cid kasta oo ku abtirsata magaceenna. Culumadu waa in ay bulshada u iftiimisaa dhagarta Al Shabaab iyo afkaarahooda gurracan.” Dhanka kale, Culumada oo la wadaagay Madaxweynaha aragtidooda iyo talooyinkooda ku aaddan dagaalka ka dhanka ah argagixisada Alshabaab, ayaa bogaadiyey guulaha la taaban karo ee ay ku tallaabsatay Dowladda Federaalka Soomaaliya.

Xaaf ayaa diiday qorsho ah in la joojiyo magacaabida Golaha Wasiirada maamulka oo ay kasoo muuqan doonaan Wasiiro ka imaan doona ahlusuna, kadib markii Carabeey uu sheegay in xalka Galmudug uu sidaa ku jiro.

Xildhibaanada qaar ayaa aad uga soo horjeeda in Xukuumada maamulka ay Wasiiro badan ka hesho Ahlusuna, halka qaarna ay ku doodayaan in la qanciyo Ahlusuna si looga gudbo khilaafyada. Dowlada Somalia ayaa ku howlan xalinta Khilafka labada dhinac, inkastoo ay arrintu tahay mid cakiran. Ma cadda sida looga takhluusin doono khilaafka labada dhinac ee waayadaani sii xoogeysanaayay, waxaana aad looga cabsi qabaa in xal loo waayo. Caasimada Online Xafiiska Muqdisho Caasimada@live.com

Maalin dhowoyto, Websiteka la yidhaa TANADEEM ayaa gogol u fidiyey gabadha uu dhalay kaligii taliyihiii Mengistu Xayle Mariyam, oo magaceeda la yidhaa Tigist Mengistu. Tigist oon ku soo laaban doono qaybahayga dambee ee qoraalkan waxay baaq u dirtay shacab-weynaha Itobiya iyo xoogaga mucaaridka ah (Itobiya andinet), waxaanay kula dardaarantay in ay dalka xoreeyaan. In ay ka xoreeyaan gumeystaha iyo “qaran diidka,” waa sida ay u dhigtee. Waa arinta igu dhalisay in aan qaato mawduucan ah Itoobiya halkay u socotaa, amse halkee loo wadaa? Balse mililicsi gaaban oo ku aadan tarrikhda gaaban ee itobiyada casriga ah iga hoo! Kadib markii Lij Ayaasu (Ilyaasiikii rer-Walo) uu inqilaabay Amir Xayle Selaasie isaga oo qabay Gabadhii Itiye Manon ooy Ilyaas walaalo ahaayeen, Itoobiya geedi ayey gashay (Ilayaas oo ah Boqorkii isku dayey in uu xidhiidh walaatinimo ah la yeesho Sayyid Maxamed C/Xasan iyo qoymiyada Soomaaliday, waxaa dhalay Maxamed Cali oo inta dagaal lagaga addkaaday diintiisii iyo qoomiyadiisiiba laga badalay). Waxaa uu u dhashay Islaamnimo iyo Waloo oo Oromo ah. Waxa uu se ku dhintay isaga oo masiixi isla markaana Amxaar laga dhigay. Amiir Mikaaeel yaa lo baxshay. Maxamed Cali waa laa qabsaday (waxaa isugu tagay Boqoradii Kiristanka ahaa ee Yuhanis (Tigree) iyo Menilik (Amxaar). Ilyaasna isaga oo xabis (god dhulka hoostiis ku jira) oo Xayle ciqaabay ayuu geeriyooday, walaashiisna caruur dhowr ah oo noqday dhaxaaltooyo sugayaal ayey u dhashay. Mar hadii mu’aamarad badne Xayle la boqray (1919-1930 waxaa uu ahaa amiir; 1930 – 1974 boqorka boqorada (emperor), waxay Itoobiya gashay geedi aan dhamaad lahayn. Geedigaas waxaa uu yahay geedi la rabo in lagu casriyeeyo nidaamka dawliga Itoobiya. Itobiya waxay tahay dal imberiyaaladi aasaastay oo hab dhanqan dhaqaaluhu yahay nadaamka hadhaaga ah ee fiyudal (feudal system). Fiyudalka waxaa astaan u ah beero qodasha ku dhisan nidaamka qaalaadka ah (Hacienda). Waa nidaam badariyiintu, generaaladu iyo inta bortooyada ka dhodhowi ay aad u manaafacsadaan quruska beeralaydu (peasants) ay tabcadaan. Tobenkii kuntaal ee ka go’a beerta, wax aan hal kuuntaal buuxin ayaa loo reebaa shaqsigii ku tabcay beerta, inta kalena waxaa ka la qaybsada boqortooyada, generaalada, iyo kuwa kiniisada kadhodhow. Itoobiya waxay ku soo dhaqantay xiligii boqortooyada nidaamka ugu ka kagan een naxariista lahayn ee fiyudaalka ah. Waxa uu nidaamkaasi aad u waxyeelay qoomiyada Oromooda, qowmiyadaha isutaga Koonfur Itoobiya, guraagta. Wax yeeladii xiligaas soo gadhay dakan Oromooda ugu badan weli ka mey bogsan nabar nafisigii (psychological scar) uu nidaamkaasi ku keennay. Boqor Xayle 1948 -1952 aya isyidhii isbadal nidaamkaas ku samee. Sedex arimood ayaa u ahaa sababo ama ilays: 1. Xayle xiliyadii dagaalkii aduunyada labadad (WWII) waakii mudo gaaban (1936-1941) ku noolaa Iglan, Newbirdge, gurigii Bath house. Waxaa uu aad ugu qushuucay fahmayna in boqortooyo casri noqon karto. Kadsmbi wakhtigaas waxaa uu qoray axdi-qarameed cusub (new constitution). 2. Waxa kale uu aad wax uga bartay shahii Iraan xiligaas haystay oo isna rabey in uu casriyeeyo boqortooyadiisa. Hahaha Iran iyo Xayle saaxiib ayay ahaayeen. 3. Waxa dabada ka waday Marykanka oo lahaa casriyeed axdi-qarameedka kana gudu nidaamka fiyudalka. Hase ahaatee laba xoog ayaa u fasixiwaayey: 1. Arinta qoomiyadaha aanu daacad ka ahayn. 2. Xoogag qowmiyaad islaweyni ku jirtay oo aad uga hor imaanayey geedi-socod kasta oo xaquuqada qoomiyadaha xoojinaya. 1960hii ilaa 1970hii waxaa boqorka nidaamkiisii saluugay Soomaali, Eriteria, Tigray, Canfar, iyo Oromo. Waxa kale oo saluugsanaa xoogaga horusocdka ah oo Iyana rabay isbedel coojiya xaquuqda beeralyda iyo qowmiyadaha. Aritaas ayaa u horseeday ciidamadii Dhargigu in ay awooda la wareegaan. Sibabtoo ah kacaan isbadel (revolution) ion Horaeed lahay (leadership) ayaa soo foodsaaray. Xilagaa ciidamada oo kaliya ayaa urusanaa (the army was the onlyborganized entity). Aakhirto ciidamada ayaa hogaankii haleelay. Bishii Ogasto 28, 1974 ayuu Mangistu dilay Xayle: Barkimo uu afka u saaray ayuu ku ciijiyey; si bilaa naxariis ahna wuu idilay. Halkaasna waxaa ku soo afjarmay nidaamkii fiyudaalka ahaa ee rer-boqor horseedka ka ahaayeen. Sidaan horay u sheegay, dad badan ayaa ku xaq laa nidaamkaas, haba ugu daraadaan Qowmiyadaha Oromo, Soomaali iyo Canfartu. La soco qaybta 2, 3, iyo 4aad. Nuxurkuna waxa uu yahay kuwa durbaanka u tuma kala saraynta qowmiyadaha Abiy iyo dawladiisa halkay ku wadaan? Sawiradu waa Megistu, Xayle, Ilyas, askar Xayle u sujuudaysa, iyo Sayyid Maxamed W/Q: Faysal Rooble

The decision by Ethiopia’s ruling coalition to resolver a border dispute with Eritrea has met stiff resistance from members of Badme town which was the epicenter of the war that killed tens of thousands on both sides. The 36 member executive committee of Ethiopian People’s Revolutionary Democratic Front (EPRDF) announced on Tuesday that it would accept the December 2000 Algiers Agreement that was signed to restore peace between Ethiopia and Eritrea. But for many of Badme’s 15,000 residents, most of whom are veterans of the 1998-2000 conflict, the decision by premier Ahmed Abiy and the ruling coalition to cede the town to their bitter enemy, Eritrea is an insult to the living and the dead. “Why did we fight for it then to just give it away? All this sacrifice for nothing? For this?” said Dubale Getu, a wounded veteran who has lived in Badme since his deployment during the war. The local anger is in stark contrast to the international plaudits Abiy has won for appearing keen to defuse one of the most intractable diplomatic disputes in the Horn of Africa. The locals also argue that they were not consulted by the government before a decision that would ultimately affect their status was taken. They sat they first heard that Badme was to be ceded to Ethiopia’s bitter foe via state radio and television, and are threatening to resist implementation of such a move. “They should not expect peace here if they force us to leave,” said unemployed 35-year-old Habtom Shiferaw, whose family members fought in the war. “There will be violence.” More trouble in Tigray But the Badme residents are not the only people that Abiy will have to contend with as he pursues radical reforms on the issue of Ethiopia. Some Tigrayans in the northeastern region, who have long been the leading ethnic group in the EPRDF coalition which has run the nation of 100 million for more than two decades, are concerned their interests will be hurt if Badme is surrendered. Last week, protests were held in the Irob district in Tigray, as the people said the decision which was reached without their input risks separating communities into different countries and threatens the survival of the Irob people. The Irob who number about 30,000, mainly engage in agriculture and cattle rearing. While they speak Saho, a Cushitic language like Somali, Oromo and Afar, they also speak the semitic Tigrigna, and are culturally and socially close to Tigrayans. The protests in Tigray could pose the first real challenge to the new administration of 41 year old Abiy, a member of the Oromo ethnic group, Ethiopia’s largest. Abiy was appointed after three years of unrelated unrest in the Oromo area but he needs the support of all members of the ruling coalition to push through sweeping changes including partial privatisation of the national airline and telecoms firm. After his Badme bombshell, the Tigrayan People’s Liberation Front, a regional political party that had dominated the EPRDF until Abiy took office in April, came out swinging against any concessions to Asmara. “The Tigrayan People’s Liberation Front will not take part in any process that harms the interests of the people of Tigray,” it said in a statement, demanding that any withdrawal be linked to additional concessions from Eritrea. Eritrea’s government has not responded publicly to Addis Ababa’s offer nearly a week ago. Eritrea has long said it wants Ethiopia to pull its troops out from Badme before normalising ties, citing a decision by a boundary commission at The Hague which awarded the town to Eritrea in 2002. There are no signs yet in Badme of withdrawal of the Ethiopian forces stationed there. Source: – Africanews

US President Donald Trump (right) walks out with North Korea’s leader Kim Jong Un (L) after taking part in a signing ceremony at the end of their historic US-North Korea summit, at the Capella Hotel on Sentosa island in Singapore on June 12, 2018. PHOTO | POOL | ANTHONY WALLACE | AFP Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un hailed their historic summit Tuesday as a breakthrough in relations between Cold War foes, but the agreement they produced was short on details about the key issue of Pyongyang’s nuclear weapons. The extraordinary encounter saw the leader of the world’s most powerful democracy shake hands with the third generation scion of a ruling dynasty, standing as equals in front of their nations’ flags. CONCERNS Kim agreed to the “complete denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula”, a stock phrase favoured by Pyongyang that fell short of long-standing US demands for North Korea to give up its atomic arsenal. After a day filled with smiles and compliments in the sumptuous setting of a luxury Singapore hotel that was watched around the world, the US “committed to provide security guarantees” to North Korea. Ahead of the meeting, critics expressed concerns that it risked being more about media headlines than substantive progress. Asked about denuclearisation — the crux of the summit — Trump said, “we’re starting that process”, adding that it would begin “very, very quickly.” But the text of the two men’s agreement made no mention of previous US demands for “complete, verifiable and irreversible denuclearisation” — jargon for scrapping weapons and committing to inspections. Melissa Hanham of the US-based Center for Nonproliferation Studies said on Twitter that North Korea had “already promised to do this many times,” adding the two sides “still don’t agree on what ‘denuclearisation’ means.” In neutral Singapore, the leaders, who had previously hurled insults like “mentally deranged” and “little rocket man”, showered compliments on each other. ‘SPECIAL BOND’ Trump said he had formed a “special bond” with Kim, whose regime has been accused of multiple human rights abuse and who is suspected of ordering the assassination of his brother at a Malaysian airport last year. “We’ll meet again,” Trump said after a signing ceremony, standing with Kim on the verandah where they first met. “We will meet many times.” Trump said he “absolutely” would be willing to invite Kim to the White House. For his part, Kim said the two Cold War foes had vowed to “leave the past behind”, pledging “the world will see a major change.” The extraordinary summit — unthinkable only months ago — comes after the Washington and Pyongyang appeared on the verge of conflict late last year as the leaders slung personal insults and Kim conducted nuclear and missile tests. At the start of the day, the pair shared warm words and shook hands for several seconds, Trump reaching out to touch the North Korean leader on his right shoulder. As they sat down for their tete-a-tete, the US leader — who had said he would know “within the first minute” if a deal would be possible — predicted a “terrific relationship” with Kim. In Seoul, South Korean President Moon Jae-in watched live on television, telling his ministers, he “could hardly sleep last night”. 40 MINUTES After huddling for around 40 minutes, Trump and Kim were joined by senior advisors before breaking for lunch, where prawn cocktail, short-rib confit, soy-braised cod, and vanilla ice-cream were among the options. The imagery for the high-stakes meeting was undoubtedly positive and Kim Yong-hyun, professor at Dongguk University in Seoul said: “The atmosphere of the summit looks very good.” “It will be hard for this meeting to agree on specific deals but it carries considerable significance as a starting point,” he said. Critics said the mere fact of the meeting meant Trump was legitimising Kim, who critics say runs a police state where human rights are routinely trampled. “It’s a huge win for Kim Jong-un, who now — if nothing else — has the prestige and propaganda coup of meeting one-on-one with the president, while armed with a nuclear deterrent,” said Michael Kovrig, Crisis Group Senior Adviser for North East Asia. The warm words and positive optics seemed a different era from when Trump was threatening to rain down “fire and fury” on Pyongyang and Kim attacked Trump as a “mentally deranged US dotard”, as he fired off a series of provocative weapons tests. The Singapore summit is a potentially legacy-defining meeting for both men — comparable to president Richard Nixon’s 1972 visit to China, or Ronald Reagan’s 1986 summit with Mikhail Gorbachev in Reykjavik. But many agreements have been made in the past with North Korea that have later fallen apart. Source: – AFP

Somalia and the UN in collaboration with other international partners have unveiled a joint policing model to strengthen peace and security at national and regional levels. The UN-backed Joint Policing Program (JPP) supports the two-tier policing structure and sets future development of strong national and state-level police services, the UN mission in Somalia (UNSOM) said in a statement. Mohamed Duale, Somali Federal Minister of Internal Security, said the structure demonstrates the best way to coordinate policing aimed at forming an effective policing system in Somalia. “This investment in the Somali Police is an excellent opportunity for rebuilding Somalia and the development of peace and security,” Duale said. He said the policing programme will be introduced in five federal states, the Benadir region and the future Federal Police to support the implementation of priority police projects, as outlined in the country’s National Security Architecture. Duale said the program is also expected to expedite the ongoing transition of security responsibilities from the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) to Somalia’s security forces. The New Policing Model which was adopted in 2016 by Somalia’s political leadership is touted as a key pillar of the country’s National Security Architecture. “It is essential to have a police that is responsible for their actions, based on the core universal principles of legality, necessity, professionalism and responsibility,” said Gen. Bashir Mohamed, the Somali Police Force Commissioner. The new model will oversee the procurement of equipment, recruitment and in-service training; the payment of stipends for personnel and the development of a legal framework and accountability; and construction projects for federal and state-level police agencies.

African Union Mission to Somalia soldiers take cover after Shabab insurgents shot and blasted their way into the United Nations compound in Mogadishu in June 2013.CreditMohamed Abdiwahab/Agence France-Presse — Getty Images The blast wave thundered through the compound, ripping the expletive on my lips in two and cramming half of it back down my throat. The radio-room supervisor, Hassan Osman, and I stumbled to the balcony. In that cathedral-quiet moment between the detonation of the car bomb and the staccato barrage of gunfire, we knew they were coming. Shabab militants were storming the compound, squeezing off bursts from the Kalashnikovs at their hips, leaping the gate’s smoking wreckage. It was June 19, 2013. “Dewaine. Dewaine.” Hassan’s voice was steady, his hand on my shoulder. “Do the public announcement.” Over the P.A., I instructed the several dozen United Nations staff members to duck and cover and then tried to figure out what to do next. With every rifle crack, my world flashed in a monochrome of stark, tactical decisions, like life and death reduced to their lowest common denominators. Even in the moment, the irony of stumbling into my first firefight more than a decade after leaving the Marine Corps was not lost on me. Since leaving the military, I’d grown used to my buddies shaking their virtual heads, via social media, at the fundamental insanity of inserting yourself into war without having the good sense to engage in combat. Mogadishu was a study in violent coexistence, a brutal ecosystem where new conflicts sprouted up without ever quelling the old. The Somali capital’s recent history included warlords, the Islamic Courts Union, the Ethiopian military, the Shabab and a shaky Western-backed government. This attack on the United Nations Common Compound — 10,000 square meters split between offices and living quarters, just off Mogadishu’s airport road — felt like the city’s fiercest predator had finally decided to take our measure. After the initial blast, our Somali guards immediately returned fire, dropping the first two Shabab gunmen who came through the breach. Between clipped radio transmissions from the African Union Mission and the Somali government, four more militants unhesitatingly charged over the bodies of their companions. The guards’ gunfire funneled the attackers onto the accommodation side of the compound. Under cover of suppressive fire from the towers, several of the guards and I leapfrogged the buildings on the accommodation side to herd staff members to the safe rooms on the opposite end of the compound. Pulling back the bolt on the office Kalashnikov to reveal brass bolstered my courage before our mad dash through the compound, but it was the valor and tenacity of our Somali allies that actually saved lives. Mogadishu left a permanent scratch on my heart, but talking about the attack remains difficult. I’ve never wanted to risk implying that I’d done more than I did, or to say what I really feared: that I hadn’t done enough. The Shabab murdered 15 civilians, aid workers and contractors at the compound that day, including four of our Somali guards. In Mogadishu, I led a United Nations Department of Safety and Security office consisting of three other international field security coordination officers — a Russian, a Ugandan and a Bulgarian — and about 20 local advisers, drivers and radio operators. Save for an unauthorized Chinese-made Kalashnikov, purchased by one of my predecessors and handed down to every senior field security coordination officer since, we were armed with nothing more than our wits. For armed security, we depended on a Somali-owned private security company and the host government, with whom we carried out United Nations program delivery — agriculture and sanitation projects, polio monitoring, shelter programs — in and around the city. Armed security arrangements with private companies tend to unnerve humanitarians, who rightly worry about violating the principles of their profession. But my four postings with the United Nations taught me that in areas of conflict you could have a clean humanitarian conscience or deliver aid, but rarely both. Despite the inherent tension between United Nations agencies and the armed entities they relied on, our security system in Mogadishu worked. My team got aid personnel to some of the toughest locations in and around the capital. I fell right in with my Somali security counterparts. I chewed bitter khat, a leaf with effects similar to amphetamine, with these guys, screeched through Mogadishu’s 17 districts behind their escort vehicles, and kicked up red dust while waiting for them during prayer stops on the roads to towns so recently vacated by the Shabab that you might still find the militants’ dirty dishes in the sink. Colonized but never broken, the Somalis were a wiry, arrogant and daring people for whom friendship ran deep. For all of Somalia’s trouble, I met fewer dispirited men in Mogadishu than I did in Manhattan. After the attack, the personnel based at the compound, including me and the other foreign staff members on my team, relocated to the United Nations’ main compound in Somalia on the sprawling grounds of Mogadishu international airport. Protected by Ugandan and Burundian troops, displaced internationals could now join the mission staff, hacks, military officers and contractors who converged at the United Nations Mine Action Service’s “Little Kruger Bar” — foreigners with faces crimsoned by alcohol and the sun, many of whom could spend the weeks in country without ever leaving the airport or speaking to a Somali. The new mission in Somalia was officially established only two weeks before the attack and had barely started moving into the compound on the grounds of the Mogadishu airport. The United Nations’ only unified radio room in Mogadishu — which maintained contact with its humanitarian and development convoys throughout the area — remained at our now-abandoned compound. I knew I couldn’t ask Hassan and his fellow radio operators to return to work at the hollowed-out buildings of an organization that the Shabab claimed were thwarting “Allah’s Law on earth & must therefore be dislodged.” But when I conducted my morning radio check from within the airport grounds the next day, it was Hassan’s voice that responded. “Sierra 1, this is Mike Sierra Base, you’re five by five.” In “War Games: The Story of Aid and War in Modern Times,” the journalist Linda Polman says that “the job of humanitarian aid worker is No. 5 on the Top 10 list of dangerous occupations, after lumberjack, pilot, fisherman and structural iron- or steelworker. It’s the only job on the list where most of the fatalities are caused by intentional violence.” From Chechnya to Dadaab refugee camp to Mogadishu to Gaza, I consistently found that most of this risk is borne by local staff — the polio-vaccination monitors, the convoy drivers, the project officers, the guards and the radio operators — who make up the backbone of international aid organizations. Yes, the average international aid worker in Somalia is there to do good, but also (whether admittedly or not) for the buzz of life in a conflict zone. We decided to leave our own countries to be in Mog, were paid good money to be there and had our careers enhanced as a result. The risk for someone like Hassan — paid a fraction of our salaries in the town where all his family lived and the entire community knew he worked for the United Nations — differed on a galactic scale. Born and raised in Mogadishu, Hassan drew from the same wellsprings of hope and despair as the militants who rushed into certain death at the compound. But there are no Gettysburgs or Omaha Beaches for people like him — no heroic charge with his comrades by his side — nor even a decisive Alamo-style defeat. Nevertheless, men like Hassan resolve to endure. As weeks turned into months, Hassan never mentioned that he reported to work every day in the place the foreign staff had evacuated. Or how the United Nations field operations that couldn’t discontinue without people dying would cease if not for his crew’s tracking our convoys and keeping our communications running. They knew the risk of working in the highly exposed compound of an organization that the Shabab referred to as “a merchant of death & a satanic force of evil.” Hassan and his crew exhibited grace under the most dangerous of circumstances and never felt the need to bring it up. I guess danger ceases to be an interesting topic after you’ve committed to facing it. Occasionally, something — unexpected fireworks or the pressure wave from subwoofers at a concert — thrusts me back into that day, five years gone. When it happens, I crowd out the image of Shabab fighters storming our compound with those of Hassan and the other Somalis I worked with in Mogadishu, women and men who exemplified Plato’s definition of courage, “endurance of the soul.” Courage is more than the charge.

The blast wave thundered through the compound, ripping the expletive on my lips in two and cramming half of it back down my throat. The radio-room supervisor, Hassan Osman, and I stumbled to the balcony. In that cathedral-quiet moment between the detonation of the car bomb and the staccato barrage of gunfire, we knew they were coming. Shabab militants were storming the compound, squeezing off bursts from the Kalashnikovs at their hips, leaping the gate’s smoking wreckage. It was June 19, 2013. Source: Hiiraan Online

SIX MONTHS ago, Ethi­o­pia appeared trapped in a cycle of unrest, repression and more unrest. Stability in East Africa’s largest country, with a population of more than 100 million, appeared to be crumbling, while the once-booming economy was facing a debt crisis. All of this was bad news for the United States, for which Ethi­o­pia has been a key ally in combating terrorism in nearby Somalia. So it’s more than worth cheering the rush of developments in Addis Ababa during the past few weeks, which signal an astonishing turnaround under a new and dynamic young leader.

Fifteen leading human rights organisations that seek to promote freedom of expression rights in Africa have called on the President to Somaliland, a self-declared state in Somalia to put an end to the recent crackdown on press freedom rights in the country. Over the past three months, a total of five journalists were arrested and two privately-owned TV stations were closed down for covering ongoing territorial disputes between Somaliland and Puntland, an autonomous state in Somalia. In a petition sent to President Muse Bihi Abdi, on June 6, 2018, the petitioners called on the head of state to safeguard the freedom of expression and freedom of assembly rights of journalists and individuals in the country. Several activists and individuals have also been arrested and detained or even sentenced to prison terms of up to three years for criticising the government on social media platforms. The petitioners expressed deep concern about the recent attacks against journalists and individuals by Somaliland authorities, which they believed are aimed at silencing criticism, public protests and to suppress dissemination of information about the territorial conflict. The groups also urged the President to intervene to ensure that citizens’ rights to freedom of expression and human rights are respected by authorities in the country. Kindly read the full petition delivered to the President of Somaliland below or click here to download: June 6, 2018 H.E. Muse Bihi Abdi President of the Federal Republic of Somaliland Office of the President Hargeisa, Somaliland. CC : Abdurrahman Abdullahi Farah, Information Minister Your Excellency, Petition We the undersigned organisations write to express deep concerns about the recent crackdown on freedom of expression and freedom of peaceful assembly rights in Somaliland. We write to denounce the increasing attacks and harassment on media organisations, journalists, activists and individuals within the last three months. On June 4, 2018, police arrested Mukhtar Abdi Jama, journalist working with Somnews TV in Las Anod district, Sool region, upon the orders of the regional governor of Somaliland, Abdi Khayre Dirir. Although no official reason was given for Jama’s arrest, our investigations show that his incarceration is as a result of the airing of a press conference held by local leaders in the Taleh district about the conflict in Tukaraq, a disputed area between Puntland and Somaliland. On May 29, 2018, Somaliland Ministry of Information and Public Awareness banned two privately owned stations, SBS TV and SOM News TV in the Sool region for covering the conflict between Puntland and Somaliland. Authorities accused the two stations of promoting political campaign against Somaliland and breaching journalistic ethics. A day before the closure of the stations, a journalist working with SBS TV, Mohamed Ahmed Jama Bidhanshe was arrested by security forces. Another reporter, Abdirahman Keyse Tungub, from Bulsho TV covering similar protests was previously arrested on May 27, 2018 by police in the same town (Las Anod). The two journalists were covering territorial dispute between Somalialnd and Puntland, a semi-autonomous region in north-eastern Somalia. Both Bidhanshe and Tungub were released on May 31, 2018 without any charges following the intervention of the Somaliland Journalists Association (SOLJA). In addition to the above-mentioned attacks, Somaliland police in a related development arrested over 40 protesters during demonstrations in Las Anod. The protesters were demanding the reunification of Somaliland with the Federal government based in Mogadishu. Sadly, according to media reports, Abdirisak Mohamed Farah, police commander for Somaliland’s Sool region justified the arrests and further threatened to arrest more persons. “We arrested 47 demonstrators including women and youth who were misled,” Farah said at a news conference in Las Anod. “There are two reporters in jail for creating chaos. We are looking for others and shall arrest them.” AFEX finds the police commander’s remarks as a clear attempt by authorities to repress freedom of expression rights of citizens. According to our sources, four journalists who have been living and working in Las Anod have already fled to Garowe city, capital of Puntland, after they were threatened by Somaliland authorities for “fomenting violence” and “misinforming the public”. These attacks have serious repercussions on the enjoyment of free speech as this could force journalists and individuals into self-censorship to avoid being harassed. Other violations we will like to bring to your attention were recorded within April and May this year: On May 14, 2018 police upon the orders of the regional governor of Sool, Abdi Hayre Dirir, arrested freelance journalist, Adam Jama Oogle aka Habeb following comments he made on Facebook in which he called for the reunification of Somaliland and Somalia. He was released after being held for over a week without charge. Oogle is not the only person that has suffered attacks from the country’s authorities for exercising his fundamental right to freedom of expression online. In two separate incidents that happened in April 2018, a provincial court in Hargeisa sentenced Naima Ahmed, an activist and poet and Mohamed Kayse, a civilian to three years and 18 months in jail respectively for Facebook comments deemed libelous by the authorities. The prosecutions were carried out under Somalia’s very old penal code. Naima Ahmed was however granted presidential pardon and released on May 7, 2018 after her family petitioned you, your Excellency. Mr President, we find it very worrying that citizens risk being sentenced to jail for exercising their fundamental rights to free expression and assembly which is enshrined in the Somaliland’s constitution as well as African and international frameworks We do note with satisfaction and gratitude that some of the arrested journalists and activists in Somaliland have been freed. Nonetheless, we believe that no one should go behind bars for exercising their fundamental rights to expression and assembly. We do recognise their release as proof of your commitment to upholding press freedom, freedom of expression and human rights in Somaliland. We are therefore calling on you to extend a similar gesture of compassion to all journalists, activists and individuals who are being held by security agents in Somaliland for exercising their fundamental rights to freedom of expression and assembly. We call upon you to also order the reopening of SBS TV and SOM News TV stations. The closure of the two stations and arbitrary arrest of journalists is an affront to free expression and will deprive citizens of their fundamental rights to access information. We are confident that your office will take note of our concerns and recommendations towards improving the freedom of expression and human rights environment both online and offline in Somaliland.
