^^ Isna ma "personal assistant" ayuu o bixiyay?

^^ I wasn't talking about Alpha and his maid dee.

^^ They pulled it off and chose a brand new name that even cautious me could not help but flicker with expectation.

^^ Is delegation one of your good skills, Ibti? I somehow doubt it, you're a candle burner, love.

Heh@Juxa..dee Maaddeey iyo Ayoub oo leh "Juxa this and Juxa that" ayaan arkay. p.s. "afxuntahay" does not sound nice at all. I brush my teeth twice a day and after meals sometimes.

^^ Maybe it's with the new charger too. Buy a new one. Jb, I was talking to Juxa but you're not far behind. Stop it.

^^ This time, I can't spoil your thread. Your name suits your sentiment.

^^ Adigu dadkan aad isku diryasid guurmaad joojin? Stop it now!

I thought yesterday put a slight dent in the argument that Clan was Everything! Is this your online version of pinching yourself and trying to see if "change" really took place? Long way to go yet.

^^ It was mentioned to you but you didn't see fit to share it with the rest of us? Nor did most Somali media commentators nor anyone else (until the day he invited 150 MPs for some food). Naga daa dee.

After yesterday's events, A&T? You still do "solid intelligence"?

Hope your amazement re konfurian governance continues. There are lots of questions to be answered there but it is still amazing that an "unknown" thwarted the stitch up. Yes, I too hope that my amazement continues but, I can't help it saaxib, one swallow does not a summer make, and all that. Lets see what the next few weeks bring. At least this change is big enough to justify some hope. p.s. Ciyaalka cusub ayu Yunis; shir markaad wada gashaan oo afhayen ila murma dooratan ayaan idin ka jawaabi (ma Somali parlimentkaaad ka liidataan?).

Come now, talk sense. I just didn't expect Sharif to lose. I truly expected a stitch up like last time.

I am amazed. The Somalis in the parliment went against the norm. Shame about the ones in SOL!

Alpha Blondy;867310 wrote: Somewhat of an unknown quality this hassan sheikh mahamoud. Not the point. It's more to do with the fact that there is a parliment that has its own mind rather than the usual stuff. Could it really be that this is a proper parliement?

Now that's a bit of a shock! Maybe there is hope for Somalia after all.

All about giving Sharif the platform to say that he was elected "fairly" and that if the decision was dodgy not many people would have got the "decoy" to the second round.

A two horse race? Now it's getting interesting.

^^ If the top four go to the next round, Gaas is not out.

^^ Abwaan called fifteen other people too.
