Somaliland takes first step toward implementing sea access deal with Ethiopia March 11, 2024 MOGADIShU (Somaliguardian) – Somaliland authorities have taken the first step toward implementing a sea access deal with landlocked Ethiopia as Somalia asks Addis Ababa to abandon the memorandum of understanding signed in January. A technical committee dispatched by Somaliland President arrived in the town of Lughaya in Awal region where Ethiopia is set to build a naval base and met with local elders, weeks after reports emerged that residents opposed the deal. Members of the committee also met traditional leaders in Borama, Dila and other towns in the region in an effort aimed at soothing tensions over the memorandum of understanding. Somaliland has deployed hundreds of heavily-armed troops to major urban areas in the region to prevent a possible uprising amid growing agitation over the agreement, which locals described as illegal giveaway of Somali-owned land and sea.

By the way hassan sheikh conceded though he said no talks with Ethiopia unless they declare the MOU null and void. He should have kept his word why send a Minister to kenya to hold talks with Ethiopia when u said i will not hold talks with Ethiopia ,

Ridwan is in Hargeisa

How accurate is this

Sir gavy Williams

Abiye said to eritrea i will give u all the land tigrayan took from u in the Badme in return. I need a port I do own isias said I can give u Assap or massawa but we want to co own it 60 percent share . It will not be a permanent ownership and at any time in the agreement the Eritrean government can take back buy Ethiopia out of the shares. Also in exchange isias said. I want full rulership of Tigray and install his puppet tpdm tigrayans rebels who he groomed in Asmara for decades. Abiye went back on the ageeement and made peace with Tigray and the tplf in South Africa . Sources also said that abiye asked for naval base isias said that can never happen. So the deal died and they had a fall out

Abiye these days relies more on the Chinese and the east I doubt he cares for the aid money the west give them though he is broke. But he has big daddy uae to help him with the deficit he don’t mind throwing the mou with sl in the bin but he wants an alternative I do believe hassan wants to give him some concessions . As long as he reject the current mou because this hurts the bunker . And they can’t have that . Do not believe ulusow is more wadani then ina bixi. Ulusow will do everting for money do not miscalculate ulusow will do everting to come back after 2026 that’s his aim and not accumulate as much as possible .i mean if he cared about human rights he would have not killed over a million tigrays the west did little to stop that war

according to gaylan media Ethiopia wants to get the legitimate approval from Mogadishu to get access to a sea out let so what can happen here then well for sure Hassan sheikh cant sign an out let for Ethiopia in any territory in the north Somaliland it wont work because SL wont allow it even if abiye says i got signature from hassan. let me in second issue will be hassan to give Ethiopia a sea out let inside Somalia , for Ethiopia to drop the SL MOU , now this could work but hassan then has to give the ethiopians a deal as good as the one they had with Somaliland naval base for a half a century well can hassan sheikh do that to give them merca or hobyo cadale kismayo or any other sea out let some place in southern Somalia , the only thing he wins with that is Stopping Somaliland recognition he wont win anything else

Somaliland electoral commission sets election date following President's signing of amended laws Saturday March 9, 2024 Hargeisa (HOL) - The President of the breakaway region of Somaliland, Muse Bihi Abdi, enacted two amended electoral laws on Saturday: the Electoral and Voter Registration Law (number 91/2023) and the Regulation of Organizations and Political Parties Law (number 14/2023). The Houses of Parliament in Somaliland approved these laws after making several amendments and supplements. Despite the three Somaliland political parties and other political organizations welcoming the law, some organizations have expressed opposition, citing that the regulations limit the right to participate in the presidential election to Kulmiye, Waddani, and UCID parties alone. The leader of the Horseed political organization, Abdillahi Iman Dirawal, objected to the law after the President's signature. He stated that if the election is conducted in this manner, they will not participate. After the President's signature, the chairman of Somaliland's National Electoral Commission (SLNEC) informed the local media that the electoral commission is prepared for the dual elections in November 2024.
