Interestingly enough, Dubai is one of the locations where the survey results will be presented. Houston is the other.

Salaax, inkaarqabe baa tahay, look what you started

This explains why secessionists have a siege mentality.

So, Suldaanka just called the good people of Awdal looters and genocidaires.

I always wondered how true is Ethiopian census. There's new census coming. Kenyans had a problem with Somali numbers in their last census.

Cuz Farmajo such like the ones before him are more interested in self preservation. People should demand to see what he gave away.

Amhara are dreaming of days gone by. It's rather wierd Abiy is attacking Oromo while Amhara are arming themselves.

Galbeedi, Abiy is another Zenawi in the making. In fact, it will be worse for the Somalis should this man consolidate power and disenfranchise everyone else.

I actually did watch semis and finals. It seems Emiratis can't do anything right. The blockade might have been the best thing that happened to Qatar. The experience changed them.

Little of you wrote made any sense. If I understand you right, you are saying Villa Somalia is not in position to talk to Hargeysa and some international actors share that view. That begs the question what's stopping Hargeisa from gaining recognition considering Villa Somalia's ineffectiveness and IC willingness to engage with Hargeisa?

LOL, to the moon eh? Go to the outer space first. Considering how much in disarray Somalia is with no military and economic power and with belligerent tribes/regions and not to mention Al-shabaab/ Daacish and foreign interference, among of all secessionist entities in the world, Somaliland is in the best position to gain recognition. Yet Somaliland failed in that effort, this has more to do Somaliland's incompetence than with Southern sadism. Surely. Farmaajo whom you made point of telling us he is no position to do anything can't be an obstacle.

Sad truth but we are focusing on the wrong thing.

Good advice considering how much this community contributes to this region and if Puntland is serious about federalism, all citizens should be a priority.

He has your undivided attention!

I don't see that happening but we can hope.

It's a waste of resources indeed.
