I gave it to you Farmajo he could have done better. That said, Modabe's Jubaland is not like Pland or other states that are 'aligned' with Farmajo. Pland has for the most part control of most of its territory and other states are obviously less successful but they have not become a hindrance to the federal. Madobe is holed up in Kismayo while undermining the central government. He did this in the past, is doing it presently, and will do it regardless of who becomes president tonight. He has been in a power for a decade, and that entire time, he was in constant bickering.

In theory, I agree with you. What do you do with a man who has become a genuine obstacle?

Jigjiga

Whoever he wins must liberate Bu'aale first before they can replace Madoobe.

I wonder what is Fahad's role in this? The man was insulted and vilified.

Good question.

It looks no one is dropping out.

I can understand him. Imagine putting so much effort into getting rid of Farmaajo and failing short. It was always clear anyone Rooble endorses won't go that far. Khadijo has been in the trenches for too long for enyone to tell her anything.

It does!

The last four round: confirmed

Deni is leading.

Arafaat, The top four will move on to the second round and the top two to the final round.

I was too. Deni did surprise m3me as well.

They didn't meet the threshold of moving to the second round. I think Sharif will back Farmaajo.

I wouldn't say that. I think his chances increased now that Sharif is out which if I am being honest surprised me.

It's Kheyr and Farmaajo vs HSM and Deni.

No Sharif?

Putting the band back together

Somalis are fickle. They may jump ship the last minute. Deni seem sleep deprived.
