Thousands of Somaliland Soldiers Enter Ethiopia for Training Newsaddis Thousands of Somaliland soldiers have entered Ethiopia for military training. The training program aims to bolster Somaliland’s defense capabilities through advanced instruction in asymmetric warfare tactics, command and control with focus secure communication, weapons systems familiarity, and combat readiness. Reportedly, thousands of Somaliland soldiers entered Ethiopia for military training on Tuesday July 9, 2024. “We saw many Tata cars passing by carrying Somali youths,” residents of Diredawa region of Ethiopia said this week. The state-run Somaliland television station showed thousands of army personnel on their way to Ethiopia for military training. “The Chief of General Staff of Somaliland, Major General Nuh Ismail, accompanied the trainees on their way to the training,” the state-run Somaliland television station said in a report. The Ethiopian government has not said anything about the military training. From the Somaliland side, there is no word on what kind of training they will receive, other than saying that the number of members of the army is in “thousands”. The television station showed several buses and trucks leaving Somaliland and crossing the border town of Wajale into Ethiopia. Around six months ago, Somaliland’s top military officers visited Addis Ababa and discussed military cooperation with their Ethiopian counterparts. Ethiopia and Somaliland signed a controversial Memorandum of Understanding in January this year. The MoU is opposed by Somalia which calls it a violation of its territorial integrity and sovereignty. The MoU, if implemented, would give landlocked Ethiopia access to sea through Somaliland in return for recognizing Somaliland as a country. Somaliland is internationally recognized part of Somalia. But for the last 3 decades, it has been existing as an independent entity, lacking international recognition. While Ethiopia is set to train Somaliland forces, Somalia’s forces are being trained by Eritrea and Egypt. Both the countries are not good terms with Ethiopia. The Somaliland military training program in Ethiopia has been launched at a time when Somaliland and Djibouti and involved in a war of words. Somaliland accuses Djibouti of working to undermine Ethiopia-Somaliland MoU by backing SSC Khatumo and Awdal movements.

On the contrary, ina Biixi is arguably the best thing that has happened to Somaliland. He has exposed the fragility of the existing structures and revealed the true adversaries of the holy Somaliland republic. For too long, the underlying tensions within the Horn of Africa's political landscape have remained unaddressed, and ina Biixi has shaken these foundations. Despite the temporary loss of two districts in the Sool region which was unfortunate , which he will undoubtedly reclaim through diplomacy or by Military force, as for the so-called "cats of Dawarsi state" hiding in the west pose no real threat they are inconsequential. This situation, colloquially referred to as "baalo xoofto," should not be overestimated.

Farah Maalim de-whipped by Wiper Party over Gen Z protest remarks 201 SharesFacebookFacebook messengerTwitterWhatsAppLinkedInTelegramEmail Friday July 12, 2024 FILE - Farah Maalim, Member of Parliament for Dadaab, speaks to the press outside the courthouse on August 21, 2018, after filing a petition challenging the election of Garissa Township MP Aden Duale. (Photo courtesy of Law and Power Kenya / Kenyans.co.ke) NAIROBI, Kenya (HOL) — Farah Maalim, the Member of Parliament for Dadaab, has been de-whipped from the Wiper Democratic Movement following his controversial remarks about the handling of Gen Z protesters. The National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) summoned Maalim to address his statements, which have sparked widespread public outcry. advertisements The Wiper Party's National Executive Committee (NEC) decided to de-whip Maalim from all committees in Parliament, including the Speaker's Panel. "NEC's decision is that the Hon Farah Maalim be de-whipped from all Committees in Parliament, including the Speaker's Panel," read part of the statement. Additionally, the NEC recommended Maalim's expulsion from the party to the National Delegates Convention (NDC), the supreme organ of the party. "NEC also recommends expulsion from the Party to the National Delegates Convention (NDC) – the supreme organ of the party." Maalim's remarks, captured in a viral video, suggested that if he were president, he would have slaughtered 5000 Gen Z protesters daily. "If I were the president, I would have slaughtered 5000 of them daily," he said, referring to the youth protesters. These comments were made in the context of ongoing protests against President William Ruto's government and its policies, particularly the Finance Bill 2024. The video quickly drew backlash, prompting Maalim to clarify that his words were taken out of context and edited to misrepresent his intent. "It's all editing, cutting and pasting, and taking a word from here and there putting words together. It's basically a lot of nonsense," Maalim defended himself. The NCIC took Maalim's remarks seriously and summoned him to explain his statements. However, Maalim failed to appear before the NCIC on the scheduled date of July 11. The NCIC emphasized the gravity of the situation, stating, "Hon. Farah Maalim is required to appear before the Commission to assist with the aforementioned ongoing investigations. Failure to appear in person at the said place, date, and time is an offence as provided under Section 63 (c) as read with Section 63 (e) of the NCI Act." Opposition leaders have used this incident to criticize the government's handling of youth protests. "If the Finance Bill sails through Parliament without amendments in areas that directly affect Kenyans, then the opposition will engage with their supporters and resume demonstrations," warned Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka. The incident is not the first time Maalim has been involved in controversy. He previously faced accusations of inciting violence in the disputed Las Anod region of Somaliland.

galbeedi ur clan has never ever fought a single day in their life i dont think ur folks even know how to hold a gun

So he is a shabaab sympayhiser

we shall see time will tell. i doubt the youth of Awdal will fight for the survival of Djibouti. what did Djibouti ever do ever for Awdal , In Djibouti the people who origanlly hail from Awdal if they are not the jesus clan are very hardly marganilized there, and hold no significant power what so ever. So why would the awdalite people care for whether Djibouti is cut off from other Somalis or not

So you think Djibouti can occupy parts of Somaliland particularly the entirety of the awdal region.

Djibout Milita cannot ever enter SL territory they know this the Djiboutian army couldnt defend their land from an Eritrean girl Militia but i really welcome them they should try it this is what SL needs the most i really hope Jabuuti pulls through and smuggle militia inside Somaliland , this will be the best thing that will happen to SL

Ina rayaale calls out the likes of Galbeedi

Ur having a field day i guess u do know Barkhat batuun one of our lowly MP also met the geele guy so what is the big deal there wait let me look up the picture

Ina rayaale again lashes out against the Bunker and Jabuuti this time,,

Why do the Koonfurians presume they can speak on behalf of the Awdalite people, implying that they are a weak group whose rights have been suppressed? The Awdalite people boast intellectuals, political leaders, traditional leaders, and business leaders. They are among Somaliland's finest, and there has never been an uprising in Awdal, contrary to the narratives propagated by Koonfurians for their own gain. Where do we draw the line? Should there be a notion of sub-sub-clan self-determination? Who has the authority to decide what a clan can or cannot do? These questions merit serious consideration. The majority of the Awdalite people stand firmly behind their country and community, except for a few dissidents like Galbeedi and other members of the diaspora in Canada, who believe their interests are better served in the Bunker primarily out of self interest. The Duriyad clan also has a few who think they can profit from the Bunker. The reality is that the eastern Sanaag and eastern Sool regions have no genealogical ties with the rest of Somaliland, hence their desire to leave based on tribal self-determination, as they feel their interests are better served elsewhere. However, the Awdalite clan is deeply connected to the rest of Somaliland both tribally and economically, with significant investments in Hargeisa. Personally, I hope Geele does bring militia into Awdal, so the true outcome can be witnessed. Geele miscalculates in thinking the Awdalite clan will act on his behalf. What he fails to grasp is that the Awdalite clan would rather push his clan further into Djibouti and out of Selel region. In the 1990s, when Djibouti attempted something similar, Abdurahmaan Tuur and the SNM expelled their militia from the entire Awdal region. History, I believe, will repeat itself.

Absolutely but lately Karaash made some remarks and Caare didnt like it one bit the 1993 Peace conference held in Ceerigaabo kept the peace between the four Clans in Sanaag , every one questions or tries to violate that treaty then it can go ugly. Hopefully not

Suldan Cismaan Suldaan Cali Suldaan Madar

Again Asmara culusow he love that place asmara seven times

Ina Biixi has unveiled the inherent fragility of both the Bunker and Djibouti, while Bixii remains unconcerned, as the UAE wields greater power than any other nation in the region. The UAE's involvement, driven by their previous fallout with Djibouti, further solidifies this stance and their investments in Addis Ababa . Thus far, Biihi has adeptly navigated the situation, whereas Geele appears to have overplayed his hand prematurely. Once considered shrewd, Geele’s strategy now seems questionable. He has revealed his antagonistic stance towards Somaliland, much to easy much to early, yet there is little concern about Firdhiye, who is viewed as an insignificant pawn in Geele’s game. Firdhiye's motivations remain unclear. Somaliland possesses significant leverage, and Geele is feeling the pressure from various fronts. Notably, the conflict between his Jesus clan and the Afar, exacerbated by Abiye's federal forces siding with the Afar, highlights Geele's preoccupation with the Djibouti-Addis Ababa corridor and port business. Sources suggest that Abiye's dissatisfaction with Geele is escalating, cautioning him against opposing the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). Should Geele persist, Addis Ababa may redirect its business to Port Sudan, Port Lamu, and Berbera, posing a substantial threat to Djibouti's economic interests. In contrast, Somaliland is well-prepared for potential conflict, with troops stationed in Sool and around the Oog region. Many intellectuals hope Geele provokes Somaliland by deploying militia in Awdal, which would likely unite the Duriyad clan more then ever we have heard Suldan cismaan Suldaan Cali Suldan Madar and his remarkts towards Garaad jamac garaad Cali. However, Awdalites remain mature and well-led community, with leaders such as Sultan Dhawal, Sheikh Ali Jawhar, and Ina Rayaale, is unlikely to succumb to Geele’s machinations. If Geele seeks to make a statement through opposition in Somaliland, he may inadvertently strengthen his adversaries. Somaliland could leverage figures like Ina Boore and other Djibouti opposition in members, exploiting Djibouti's internal discontent and give them Platform inside Somaliland. With 280,000 Djiboutians holding dual citizenship in both Somaliland and Djibouti, the latter has an intimate understanding of Djibouti’s clan and political dynamics. Geele should be cautious, as the saying goes, "Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones." The future promises to be intriguing indeed.

Not at all this has absolutely no significant geele is trying to send a signal geele is praying every day that we go back to the days of pre mou. U do know his setting up this show just to go back to that particular era. But gone are those days somaliland is going to have the best laugh somaliland and abiye Ahmed do have geele and the guy in the bunker by the balls and there is nothing the firxad called fardhiye is going to change any of that
