    ^^ Let me see shooting at military outpost is not considered in your book an attack old boy. The reality is this Plan and simple the TFG is not going to your Aid, Puntland is not going to your Aid, UN is not going to your aid, Ethiopia is not going to your aid. You push for this state within a state and now you have to deal with what happens.

    Somalia MPs have protested the country’s Ministry of Interior’s move to ban parliamentary sessions for four weeks.

     

    They have threatened to summon Minister Abdisamad Mo’alin Mohamud before Parliament to explain the move.

     

    MP Awad Ahmed Ashareh said lawmakers would demand the removal of Mr Mohamud and the Police Commissioner for locking Parliament.

     

    The Interior Ministry blocked parliamentary sessions on Friday in Mogadishu, days after Speaker Sharif Hassan Sheikh Aden was controversially replaced by MPs.

     

    In a press conference held in Garowe, Puntland, Mr Mohamud said he was unhappy with the infighting over the ouster of the Speaker.

     

    But addressing journalists in Nairobi on Friday, Somalia MPs condemned the minister’s move, terming it illegal, unwarranted and against Somalia’s Federal Charter.

     

    Mr Ashareh, who is the Information, Public Awareness, Culture and Heritage Committee chairman, told journalists at the Laico Regency Hotel that the minister ought to understand separation of powers between the Executive and Parliament.

     

    Different roles

     

    “The Executive and Parliament have different roles. Only the Speaker can close Parliament. This illegal move would only cause confusion in the crisis-hit country,” he said.

     

    On Thursday, Somalia Transitional Federal Parliament’s 27-member standing committee agreed that a panel to elect the Speaker provides the names of interested candidates on Saturday.

     

    The team added that the election of the Speaker be held within 20 days and that the country’s Prime Minister gives a roadmap for peace and stability in the country.

     

    Meanwhile, senior officers serving in the African Union Mission in Somalia (Amisom) are being trained on international humanitarian law by the United Nations. Amisom soldiers are also learning about Somali culture.

     

    “Minimising harm to civilians, being sensitive to the customary practices of Somalis and respecting international humanitarian law is central to what we do,” said Maj-Gen Fred Mugisha, the force commander.

    So you then are against the TFG claiming Somaliland correct? If i understand your logic stop claiming our land and we wont yours right? As a Unionist i want you to state you support Somaliland regions that are 100% support of Indpendence and your disapproval with TFG position that Somaliland is part of Somalia and i am all for SSC parts to go with Somalia. Are you ok with this view.
