    There was a qodob in the talks is dhex galka dadka iyo isi socodka dadka  i think that qodob has now also  not be implemented 

    Xaaji, Digsi Xagato latest campaign to sow fear, division and ‘kala faquuqin’ is dead on arrival and won’t be able to stop Somali peoples mobility. Even during much worses days have people have been mobile across regions, desperate Digsi Xagato things that this will give them more time in power.

    Latest information from Mogadishu, alleges Marxuum was passing highly sensitive info to SL, and was caught, NSA carried out execution.

    Some of these information  SL used against the airlines.

    After throwing that young men of the clip by enticing him to espionage, they are trying to deflect blame by using this as a tool for further polarisation and ‘kala faquuqinta dadka’.

    The same players from late 1970s , when fighting  against SSDF, to SNM, in 1980s, to clan wars in  early1990s, to SSC 2023, and Laascanood, same.players

    Evil people don't die, good people die young 

    The Soviet trained ‘Calan Cas’ Colonels will never  handover power peacefully, for they have shed so much blood to get in to power and won’t let let go unless forced by violence as that is the language they speak.

     If they had planes and bombs during the Habro wars in 90’s or in 2023, god forbid they would have surely left monody to survive those massacre.


  4. For a moment Somalia had the moral high ground on the discussions of sovereignty and Somaliland deal with Ethiopia. That was till it started acting as a ‘dilaal’ and started selling the very own sovereignty and resources under a murky deal. This will undermine both the international support it received, and also pave the way for other regional entities to start ‘dilaal ing’ primal coastal areas as well. 


  5. It makes sense for Djibouti to not sit still with a changing regional dynamics that is seriously threatening Djibouti politically, economically and also the survival of the regime.

    Somaliland has thrown itself, Somalia and the wider region in to a potentially serious risky and murky waters. The ultimate blame for this is solely with Somalia’s leaders as they have ignored for decades the biggest and the longest of its political issue standing in the way of Somalia’s stability, state building and rule of law. And no Turkey won’t be able to solve this one for you, and neither can the AU, UN, EU or the US solve your own problems for you.

    Instead, war erupted among the various Isaaq clans. In January 1992, following violent clan fighting between the Habar Jelo and the Habar Yunis in Burao, several dozen people were killed, and a number of others were forced into exile (Le Monde 13 Feb. 1992; The Indian Ocean Newsletter 25 Jan. 1992). This fighting began after the firing of Minister of Defence Mohamed Ali Kahin, who had apparently been preparing a military coup to overthrow the current president. The struggle between the two men arose out of the fact that the head of state, Abdirahman Ali Tour, had given precedence to civilians at the expense of former guerrilla fighters. According to Kahin, it was inconceivable that the number of military representatives in the Abdirahman Ali Tour government be limited to two (Jeune Afrique 16-22 Apr. 1992).

    So the ‘Calan cas’ colonels did directly start the inter-clan war in the 90’s, somehow I thought it was just hear say. 

    If you look at the involvement of these Soviet trained colonels, their fingerprints are all over the major conflicts in Somaliland. From the escalation of the conflict in the North during the 80’s, the inter-clan Habar-Habar war during the 90’s, the Las Anod war (2022-2023) and even now they are busy to stirr and incite another regional conflict, in order to deflect attention and stay in power. 

    No wonder that they always seek to deflect attention from their own role and need an ‘external’ enemy. But this time it won’t work, no matter how loud they scream, repeat their inciting rhetoric, nobody will belief nor follow their politics, for they are just another loud social media pundits not worth for young people to sacrifice their lives for.

    well spoken the suldaan  of Hargeisa  indeed

    Cuqdadan ah Somali ayaa no tashatay, is perhaps the first and most important of false narratives that have been propagated. sending mediocre players to the field that are loosing the political game, doesn’t mean that anyone is there to get you. It just means you need to come with a better game.

    nonsense on your part keep parroting the same walanweyn rhetoric of  SL ba dad bay diisha and this and that  Abdinasir will get his revenge will get justice . And the Walanweyns will be dealt accordingly . Nothing has failed the only thing that has failed is Somalia now keep on booty clapping for them 

    When do you realise there isn’t much difference between Somali’s, even the leaders are of the same kind. 😂 


  9. The 25th of August is marked as turning point in the pages of history, in many ways the last 6 months showed us that Somalilands issues are far more structural in nature, rather then solely an issue of wrong leadership, bad decisions makings. The last months have showed us that even in Somali politics principles and ideologies matter, even though we tend to think it’s all personalities and personal choices, and that decision making, outcomes and directions are guided by the principles, beliefs and ideas one holds. 

    The current ruling elites in Somaliland, more then any previous leaders, consist of those that are truly closest in sincerity to some of the core chauvinistic ideologies that have come to influence the most populistic narratives and loudest notions and voices in the public debate and politics of Somaliland. And perhaps have equally influenced similar narratives and populistic sentiments in other parts of the peninsula and among other regional and clan constituencies. Even if others parts or groups are claiming moderation, it does not adequately demonstrate the actual difference between these groups, as the core remains the same self serving clan driven populistic ideology. It is not enough to assert the numerous and very real divergences between clannish groups in Mogadishu, Garowe, Baidoa or Hargeisa.  

    Therefor the true task at hand lies in fighting ideology with ideology, as the political set of beliefs don’t easily die in battlefields, and neither do they just end with the careers or life’s of politicians. The obligation, then, is to undermine the foundations upon which this clan driven chauvinistic popular ideology has drawn and to lay to rest the focus on personalities, clan relations and dynamics, incidents and eras which provide fodder for legitimacy of extremist self serving ideologies to hide behind, and with which to deem their actions as normalcy and natural part of the Somali way of life and narrative.

    Henceforth this begs for serieus soul searching where we wrong and seriously reflect upon the false beliefs, divisive ideas and wide-held popular narratives that have been subversively been planted and propagated over the decades amongst the Somali people.  

    P.S. And even though we could have discussed this as a separate topic in overall Somali politics, not necessarily coupled to either Somaliland or developments of the last months, nevertheless I am doing so as this offers a concrete case for learning and reflection that marks the futility of and end game of this ideology tangible.

    The war has began  Abdinaasiir  rag baddan ba u dhiman doona and his death will be avenged  oo  walanweyn ah oo  Somaliland hadda ku nool.  Anti walanweyn sentiment already have began in Somaliland main cities now..    Warar badan baydu maqli doontan the next coming days..

    😂 Xumjufoow, this is getting pathethic and your sentiments only further add disgrace to the failed politics you are trying to deflect and externalise to 𝑀𝑢𝑞𝑑𝑖𝑠ℎ𝑜. If you think anyone will belief in the lies and deception then you have lost sense of reality on the ground. People are awake and seeing through the years of lies from the failed lot. 

    I expect on the contrary that will hear more and more of these sane voices, no matter how hard you and the failed Qurmiye folks scream.

    the guurti passed the same law  the wadani party wanted it isnt  kulmiye fault wadani wanted this sort of elections  20 percent u cant blame it on kulmiye for appeasing wadani the biggest oppostion party , so what do u want kulmiye to do 

    the 20% regional threshold is not new and neither was it introduced by Wadani, as it’s the same rule as Kulmiye got elected through back in 2002, 2012, and it was in place long before even Wadani came to existence..Kulmiye regime had decades the opportunity to change this if it wasn’t to their liking, also a power given to them by the constitution.

    Second it’s been passed by Parliment and Guurti as per constitution. So it’s not a Wadani law, it’s a law as all other SL laws passed according to the rules laid down in the constitution.

    Laakinse Ha u joojin niyoow, Ila meereerso kusii wadno 😂

    Somehow, Bixiye has managed to unite Awdal Clan

    No on the elections it’s mainly Kulmiye officials objecting, it’s another Kulmiye tactic to stall elections, that have been passed by both Guurti and Parliament after nearly two years of undermining elections in every possible ways

    I predicted on this very website when hsm was elected that he will throw Somalia into the abyss.  He's about to. 

    Political fragmentation of the country is so deep that some regional states are on the brink of going Somaliland way. If one state starts, I believe the rest will follow. 

    I hope I'm wrong.  But I have a feeling this is the way things are going par Heavenly intervention.  

    I am not surprised by your assertion, as you seem to make the same assumptions as many others do, specially those involved in government,  namely 1) Somalia has a State, 2) the Somali people are in peace. 

    But if we challenge those assumptions and assume that our collective frame of mind should be , 1) The state collapsed in 1991 and key fundaments for that state collapse have not been addressed to enable set-up of a functioning state, and 2) the Somali people have been engaged in a conflict for the last decade and that conflict has not come to an end as no reconciliation took place over issues of contention, even though the active fighting and visible elements of disputes cooled down and might resurfaces sporadically in different forms.

    Then this puts things in a different light, and also why  leaders are making the same mistakes over and over again, as they make their assumptions are incorrect with the realities.

    It seems Djibouti is realising that conflicts in region is bad for business, and wants to play a role in peace efforts towards Somaliland/Somalia, Yemen and also Sudan. 

    And Khatuma-SSC is the pinnacle for the stability in Somaliland and also between Somaliland and Somalia. This realisation is coming a little late, but nevertheless better late than never.
