Jeegaanta must have hit hard on the head if you think children voting and Musa the menace is stealing the election from poor Cirro is democratic achievement.

Who is Kumsa Diriba? On December 19th, 2018, the Ethiopian National Defense Force began a mass deployment of its forces across western Oromia state (mainly the 4 Wallaga zones and northern areas of Shawa zone). Eyewitnesses state that the military is digging encampments in the middle of cities and hauling in sand bags for fortification. This was in response to what the government called a breakdown of order in this region due to the actions of the Oromo Liberation Army led by a man named “Jaal Maro”. Continue reading...

Love it.

We should welcome any engagement between Somalis. It's in every Somali best interest.

Looks like Yanks are getting in on the scene.

The United States re-established permanent diplomatic presence in Mogadishu, Somalia on December 2, 2018. USAID also re-established presence. To create a better tomorrow for the people of Somalia, the United States is committed to providing more than $900 million in critical investment. The United States is meeting life-saving humanitarian assistance needs; expanding education and healthcare; building institutions, good governance, and justice; creating jobs and advancing economic development; and providing stabilization and security for the people of Somalia. Summary: U.S. Humanitarian Assistance to Somalia $420 million in life-saving humanitarian assistance to Somalia this year. Job Creation Creating more than 1,600 full-time, private sector jobs in the last 3 years. (In the dairy sector alone, our support created nearly 500 full-time and 650 seasonal jobs. We helped stop Irmaan Dairy from closing down; it now produces over 3,500 liters of milk daily.) The United States is looking at airport and port upgrades to create trade and jobs. Debt Relief Consideration of debt relief to attract development to Somalia. Education Supporting secondary education for 160,000 youth in Somalia and 20,000 primary school children (45%) girls. Governance and Stabilization $110 million to help establish good governance, conflict resolution, and judicial reform.

Ever since the midterm election, conservative media in the United States have targeted with special zeal Ilhan Omar, an incoming Somali-American Democratic congresswoman and a devout Muslim who wears hijab. In response to Democrats’ push to remove a headwear ban on the House floor to accommodate Omar, conservative commentator and pastor E.W. Jackson complained on a radio show that Muslims were transforming Congress into an “Islamic republic.” The Democratic Party has several rising political stars with Arab or Muslim backgrounds, all of whom have become objects of such conspiracy theories. But it’s not only American conservatives who have been indulging in this culture war. Read more

MMA, I think the so- called opposition jumped the gun. Farmaajo needs to be conciliatory though.

Saalax, The man is dead. Let him be. What ever he did is between him and God.

And Guelleh is such a democrat.

This is from January 2018. Check the video was published. Like all newly minted he was making his first pilgrimage. That said only moron will trust Ethiopia. Abiy is buying time.

According to sources and some sites. Guelleh to reciprocate and Eritrea, Ethiopia, Djibouti and Somalia to meet at later date.

Muse the menace is good man and mujahiid

No, its the new money.

You need group though Daaco could use one on one therapy at intensive level.

Your uncle or any another family members you might lost is not you! Be your own person for second. As for the rest of stuff you scribble, I am not Yeey and I was never fan of his. And for Ethiopian thing, SNM was Meginste tool and Somaliland was Woyane collaborator like any many other Somali collaborators and tribal enclaves. If you are going to accuse others of something, make sure you are not guilty of it. It seems the overall the tragedy that has befallen on Somalis is lost on you.

I think he thinks Roobow will let keep his family's looted farms.

Farmaajo and Kheyre must be doing something right when they managed to unite anarchists and secessionists.

Correction: US was asked to sanction him under Magnitsky Act!.

An arrest warrant has been issued for Assefa.

It looks like Uncle Sam is on board. Huge for Abiy.
