Everything was shrouded in secrecy. I wonder how much is Ethiopia's stake in Bosaso Port? Abdiwali and his crew continue about the breakdown of the deal. Onto Kismayo and Baraawe.

Can Waraabe be called an opposition? He is snake who is in bed with the ruling party.

The modern scramble for Africa is intensifying. A sharp uptick in the expansion of foreign militaries in the Horn of Africa accompanied the growth of economic competition in the region in 2017. China, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates have opened military bases throughout the area in the past two years. The region is strategically important to these states for various reasons: securing shipping routes in the Bab al Mandab Strait, proximity to the ongoing conflict in Yemen, and the desire to array forces in the region alongside rivals including the United States.

Ethiopian forces use live rounds to disperse protesters in Oromo region. Things are becoming dicey.

^It has always been a problem. It is under-reported or not reported at all.

They are practically holding it hostage. Nothing is happening there as far as I could tell. It seems Abdiwali traded few dollars for great asset.

Agreed! One more reason Somalis need to attract other investors, look far east and west.

They should hang him and I hope no stupid "elders" got involved.

There's inside and local support. How is possible Ahlu Sunnah can keep AS away but Mogadishu with so many troops and checkpoints can't?

Corruption is Somali-wide problem. It goes on because people tolerate it.

^You are not making any rational argument, You are merely regurgitating what Oodweyne is saying without the caps, italics and bold letters.. You are either his fan boy or the less crazy ultra-ego. Come back when you have some original thoughts.

This story LITERALLY had nothing to do with Somaliland. The people who interjected Somaliland into this is the secessionist caravan. The thread started by Suldaanka, followed by the usual suspect Oodweyne and his ultra-ego. Using the murder of Somalis to score cheap political is repugnant. And you speak fake soomaalinimo.

It doesn't have to work. You are incapable of seeing or imagining any other thing. Irrational thoughts have taken over your mind making it devoid of any reason or nuances. In fact, I can say with high degree of certain, your 'argument' will follow a pattern, so predictable that it can become pointless. A Russian bot makes better sense.

The caravan has arrived with their perverse pleasure at the death of Somalis.

A standoff between Oromo regional police/paramilitary and federal forces have ensuedin Gute, Western Oromia.

MMA, They are slowly losing.

LOL

I was glad to see Oodka accepting of his condition, he can now start the healing process

Does anyone realize Ducale and Oodweyne post replies within minutes of each other? Ducale aka less paranoid Oodweyne 2.0 You managed to break a record. Within your short time, your laser focus attention onto Farmajo's tol have managed to outpace everyone else. That's no small feat considering how intertwined qabiil and politics are.

Developing story, The security forces have arrested the recently released Dr. Merera Gudina and Bekele Gerba..

Alla Ha Unaxariisto.

Jeegaanta has more credible elections than the fat dictator. But he is slightly better than EPDRF

It will be hard to move the capital to somewhere else. But if it ever happens, a place like Barawe will be more ideal. It is not inhibited or controlled by D or H.
