I would have liked Minister Beyle but good luck to Abdusalam.

Mogadishu (HOL) - The Somali government is lobbying for its former foreign minister, Abdusalaam Hadliye Omer to be the next Executive Secretary of The Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) - an eight-country trading block in East Africa.

Sudan also recalled its envoy to Cairo.

According to Sudanese media, Omar Al-Bashir sent troops to Eritrea border.

More Somalis attacked and displaced in Nazret (Adama), Oromia.

If this is true, things are getting a lot hotter in the Horn. Source: Middle East Monitor

Let me see, a young minister went to back his ancestral region to asses the level of development there, so this is a cause for instability? Considering Hargeisa or Garowe have nothing to help this region, why should the people of region beholden to anyone?

No Government without continuous ,local source of revenue will ever be free. Good speeches by PM Kheyr and Minister Beyle

This is a surprises move. I thought they were going to double down on their violence. Let's see if they actually release people and if this action will embolden the opposition.

Imagine what they are doing in uninhibited areas?

I think Puntland is winning over this community slowly. The new road that's being built will connect Bosaso to towns and villages in Eastern Sanaag, something that will increase trade and people movement. It is one of the few things Abdiwali did right.

I am guessing the Minister is from the area clan wise?

The Saudis and Emirates spend billions destabilizing  the rest of the Muslim. It might come back to bite them.

Back to the future Cowke and Jaajuumow

LOL. Reer Waqooyi are becoming comical. They are natural; comedians but this is much. Isn't corruption dhaqanxumo? Isn't the TV or microphone made by gaalo?

Yes, I forget. The Sunnis in Lebanon and Lebanese in general felt humiliated. Hezbollah came out looking golden.

Displaced Somalis

Kheyr visits Qeybdid

Israel is the only beneficiary of this sorry saga. They have managed to get Saudi support for Jerusalem and threw the Palestinians under the bus. Yemen, failed Qatar blockade, failed, Containing Iran, failed Supporting ISIS in Syria and Iraq failed, Bullying other Arab countries including Tunisia, Jordan, failed. Trying to win Pakistan's support, failed. Pakistan's massive port in Gwadar is picking up. Even bullying Somalia looks to be failing. Anti-corruption drive is facade, Ina Salman bought almost billion worthy of properties. And even Trump chided Saudis for what they are doing in Yemen. Apparently, he was shown pictures of starving children. Iran has gained permanent foothold all way to the Mediterranean. Turks are building bases and ports in Somalia, Sudan, etc Even Emirates have a backup plan should Saudi misadventure, Ironically enough, UAE is Iran's second largest trading partner.
