The constitution is with Karaash. He is getting a lot of support from Mudug. Dani has miscalculated this one. Since he is eying for bigger fish, he should have sought a good relationship with his VP.

This minister is wrong in my opinion. If you are Somalia's foreign minister you don't land anywhere you want like normal citizen. You contact the local police and the secret service and agree an arrangement for your security. You don't just land and hire local clan militia and start mingling with opposition as you are like mafia. It simply creates suspicion and confusion. If he wanted body guards from his family, his people dominate the police and almost all the other security services. The police officer who led this operation was inexperienced young man that has recently joined the police and should have studied the situation carefully. I heard his boss saying that he did not authorise this. The Vice president has appointed a committee to investigate this and perpetrators will be brought to justice.

10 dambe iyo 10ka dambe waa isku mud ma jaamacadii adeero baa lagugu dhigay kkkk?

War 10kii bari ee Ramadan baa lagu jiraa orod oo Allah cafis ka dalbo hadii aad ka mid ahayd kuwii baadiyaha kasoo orday ee garaadada lagu taxay ama schoolarship uusan xaq ulahayn loodiray. Adigu danbi uu Siyaad Barre ama Farmaajo lahaana kama qaadi kartid, mid aysan lahayna masaarikartid ee taada uun utaag hay. Waxba kuu tari mayso dad la ogyahay taariikhdooda inaad halkaan burcad korka nooga mariso.

Allaha caafiyo Nabdoonka and the police officer. It was unnecessary incident.

You guys are reading too much into nothing. Karaash is just confirming powers he already had under Puntland constitution.

Agreed but that is in an ideal world. In Britain we have Boris Johnson, surely he is not the brightest brain in her majesty the queen's residents? If stable countries with strong institutions can not attract talented people to lead what chance does intrinsically divisive Somalis have to come to consensus to elect the brightest with moral responsibility? And who will define who is morally responsible? Sheikhs, Businessmen, elders? Are they not all already involved one way or another?

I like your dodge! You are complaining of positions locked for some when you are the one here calling for positions locked for others so that an artificial chain is broken? All you care is the chain being broken?? Typical Somali. But on the other hand I am interested the aftermath and that is why I asked: What then? What talent is out there you would like to be brought in?

Ma fahmin! Are you saying the third alternative are not clan based a.k.a D.I.R ama D&M as Makhiri was arguing for? And if they are, how will they be different ? There will be same squabbles over position, complaint of bias real or perceived, personal interest that will ride on clan sentiment. Same old sh1t, no?

CCC waa duqoobay sidii maalin walba hoobiye loogu garaacayay. War odayga sanadkaan ha la iska siiyo madaxtinimda.

There was one thing we learned today which is Farmajo supporters in the parliament are few & violent. Hebal Jiisoow need to stop his itchy fingers meesha ma wuxuu mooday Xafiiska NISA uu dadka ku handidi jiray?

Prove I ever said he was my candidate or horse?

So who are you impressed with their talent from the other you would like to throw their hat in the ring? Bal give us names? I believe Reer Waqooyi could table one or two but that is if Hargeisa want to play ball.

Who told you that he is my candidate?

Anyone can have a chance regardless. But my point is you said the chain can be broken so what difference will that bring?

And then what?

Ciyaal qiiraysan kolba ciidan wax laga waydiin maayo. Hadii aad leedahay ciidan wali ma dhisna, maxaa laga dabaaldagyaa marka? Ciidan Balcad oo 30Km ujirta Muqdisho Al shabaab ka celin waayey, ceeb bay ku tahay ninka raba inuu campaign ku galo ciidan baan dhisay laakiin ceeb looma dhinto.

What is the purpose of having army if they can not defend the people from the enemy? it would have been better if the president could show anything for all these bravado. Perhaps Somali MPs will elect a president that will take the fight to Al shabaab and unite the country once again.

CBB warka naga yareeya doorashada gala. Afar nin wax lala qayliyo ma aha Farmaajana madaxwayne kama dhigi karaan. Marka Norway this, Japan this baa nagu waasheen. Mise the writing is on the wall and you are looking for excuses?

Maxaa Lafta Gareen Fahad ka galay?

At least they are trying to solve the problem and must be hailed.

The funny thing is if the table were to be turned and Farmajo was the one firing, you would up in arms talking about Shisheeye and all the crap CBB stuff!!!

They should get on with the election really. Too much ego on both sides. The country has suffered enough.

Kkkk Sxb don't get all worked up, there is nothing wrong with cow herding. For somehow it was always my impression that B&B were cow herders, but I stand to be corrected. Dani selected about 50 MPs & senators but I doubt he will have any control over them and it is same for Laftagareen. But the difference is Dani is running and Lafta Gareen is not.

It will be: All change when they get to Muqdisho. Mark my word. D&M as any other entities part of the 4.5, they are not one unit with one interest. The cow herders from Bay & Bakool have nothing in common with the freewheeling communities of Lower Shabelle.
