Tit for tat

Tit for tat

Roble could do that without rocking the fragile institutions. It is a criminal matter, not a political one.

It is not really about Farmajo. Rooble could have managed the process better by giving the NISA leadership enough time to address Ikran's case. Instead, he did the Somali thing and jump gun. Farmajo just appointed Fahad as the national security adviser. If Roble's intention was to kick Fahad to the curb, he failed. The whole thing was unnecessary.

When you have the support of Pland and Jland, you know you are being played. The PM and Mogadishu crew don't learn.

This was not unexpected.

Her relatives accused NISA of detaining her. After a long silence, NISA stated that Ikran was abducted by Al-Shabab and executed her. PM Roble tasked Fahad Yasin to produce a report within 48 hours. Fahad called for a National Security meeting involving regional leaders, Farmajo, and the parliament security committee. Roble fired Yasin and replaced him with someone from the same laf (4.5 formula). He referred the case to the authority general.

Ethiopian media is now calling Somalis Eastern Junta. No mention of atrocities committed by Afars.

They get played big time.
