I was reading an article about the attacks. According to the author, Al-Shabab attacked the Kikuye settlement in order to create a wedge between Kenya's various ethnic groups hehe. I doubt Al-Shabab is that cunning though he might just given them an idea.

Tallaabo. The SFG and South don't make any pretense about the tribal nature of their politics, in that sense they are more honest than the North. So, decentralize governance and resources before every habar asks for a state.

What's going in Kenya? And I thought Alshabab took the credit for the first attack?

President Uhuru Kenyatta Tuesday said the two attacks in Mpeketoni were politically orchestrated and said Al Shaabab terrorists were not to blame for the killings of more than 60 people in Lamu County at the weekend. He pointed an accusing finger at leaders who have heightened political tension in the country and vowed that the Jubilee administration will not tolerate “hate mongers, reckless leaders and negative propagandists”. Signalling a tough approach in the aftermath of the killings, President Kenyatta suspended all provincial administrators and security agents in Mpeketoni, Kibaoni and Mapromoko shopping centres and accused them of abdicating their duty. He also said some of them will be charged in court for negligence. While 50 people were killed during the Sunday night attack, a subsequent raid on Monday night claimed more than 10 lives with news agencies claiming that at least 50 people could not be accounted for. In his televised address, Mr Kenyatta said that intelligence on the Mpeketoni attack was made available to the Lamu security team in advance but they ignored it. “The attack in Lamu was well planned, orchestrated and politically motivated ethnic violence against a Kenyan community, with the intention of profiling and evicting them for political reasons. This, therefore, was not an Al Shabaab terrorist attack,” he said. However, the Somali-based Al Shaabab terrorists, who have links with Al-Qaeda, claimed responsibility for both attack saying it was in revenge for the oppression of Muslims in Kenya and the killing of Muslim scholars at the Coast. President Kenyatta had argued that recent heightened political rhetoric “laced with ethnic profiling of some communities” had likely incited some people and could be responsible for the attacks. This, he said, had sowed seeds of hate, intolerance and fanaticism. “Evidence indicates that local political networks were involved in the planning and execution of the heinous attacks. This also played into the opportunist networks of other criminal gangs,” he said. He also said the government will not tolerate leaders who were giving examples of countries which have plunged in civil war. While addressing a political rally at Tononoka grounds in Mombasa on Sunday, Cord leader Raila Odinga had said in Kiswahili: “Ukiona mwenzake akinyolewa, tia chako maji,” a phrase that could have been interpreted as a warning. Since he returned from a three-month trip to the US on May 31, Mr Odinga has lined up several rallies across the country to demand for a national dialogue conference to discuss six issues he said had plunged the country into a crisis. He has threatened to lead a rally in the city on July 7 — a day associated with the push for multi-party politics — if the Jubilee administration does not give in to his demands. President Kenyatta Tuesday warned: “The inciters have also given examples of other countries where thousands of citizens have died and been maimed in similar circumstances... To these political actors, I relay to you the disappointment of the people of this country in those who think that leadership is a sport. “Those of you given to ill-thought, intemperate and reckless speech and conduct are now on notice: there will be accountability in accordance with the law.” The President declared that, together with his deputy, Mr William Ruto, who was standing by his side as he addressed the nation, they had vowed never to lead the country into ethnic and political violence. “I reiterate that Kenya will not go that route again! We will not allow Kenya to go down this violent path again. Reckless rhetoric, incitement and negative propaganda do not constitute responsible leadership... They will not be tolerated...Those unwilling to work to unite Kenyans will not have the space to divide them,” he warned. He also blamed security officers on the ground and accused them of negligence. “Accordingly, all concerned officers have been suspended and will be charged immediately in a court of law,” he said. But in Lamu, the Cabinet Secretary for the Interior and Co-ordination of the National Government, said the officers involved had been transferred. Mr Stephen Ikua is the County Commissioner, Mr Leonard Omollo the County Police Commandant and Mr Joseph Sigei the Officer Commanding the Mpeketoni Police Division. He was reported to have been on leave when the attack occured. A Mr Amos Cheboi was the acting OCPD.

Today's Speech at the Parliament Madaxweynaha dowladda faderaalka Soomaaliya,Xassan Sheekh Maxamuud ayaa maanta ka qeyb-galey kulankii ay lahaayeen baarlamaanka Soomaaliya waxuuna ka horjeediyey khudabad dheer oo u uga hadlayo xaaladda dalka ee xilligaan. Fadhiga baarlamaanka ee maanta,waxaa soo xaadirey 161-xldhibaan, iyadoo uu shir-guddoominayay, Maxamed Sh. Cismaan (Jawaari), waxaana sidoo kale goob-joog ka ahaa kulanka raysul wasaare, C/weli Sheekh Axmed Maxamed iyo guddoomiyaha maxkamada sare. Madaxweynaha ayaa khudbadiisa oo dheered waxaa uu kusoo koobay xaaladda uu dalku marayo laba muuqaal oo kan hore uu ahaa inay soo koobmayaan khilaafaadka u dhexeeya madaxda dowladda Somalia iyo in ay shacabka Soomaaliyeed hal mowqif ka qaateen Al-shabaab oo uu ugu yeeray nabaddiid. Hoos ka akhriso kana dhageyso khudbada madaxweynaha Guddoomiyaha Baarlamaanka, Raiisalwasaaraha XFS, Xubnaha Golaha Wasiirada, Xubnaha Golaha Shacabka, Dhamaan Dadweynaha Soomaaliyeed, Assalaamu Calaykum Waraxmatullaahi Wabarakaatuhu. Waxaa farxad ii ah inaan maanta halkan ku kulanno, innagoo ay inagu soo dhawdahay munaasabadahii xorriyadda iyo midnimada dalkeenna. Sidoo kale waxaa bilo yar inaga xigaan inay soo xiranto muddada labada sano ahayd ee yagleelidda dawladeenna cusub. Waxaan jeclahay inaan si dhab ah idiin kala hadlo xalaadda dhabta ah ee aan maanta marayno iyo meesha aan hiigsanayno. Ma jecli inaan ka hadlo waxii la soo maray amaba dood ka galo sida ay wax u dhaceen. Xaaladda dalkeenna waxaa is garab socdo laba muuqaal oo aad isaga soo horjeeda oo inooga baahan inaan labadaba wada aragno: Muuqaalka Koowaad Waa soo noqoshada dawladnimada Soomaaliyeed oo maanta leh muuqaal ka duwan sidaynu ahayn sanado yar ka hor. Wax badan oo taladeenna kamid ah inaga ayay gacanta inoogu jirtaa. Aad bay u soo koob mayaan khilaafaadka dadkeenna ka dhaxeeyo. Waxaa xusid mudan inay maanta socdaan wadahadallo lagu doonayo soo celinta midnimadii Soomaaliyeed, isbeddelada siyaasadeed ee sida nabad gelyada leh uga dhacay deegaannada Puntland, dadaallada ka socdo maamul dhisidda iyo dib u hanashada gobollo kala duwan oo koofurta dalka ka mid ah. Waxaa isku aragti laga wada noqday mawqifka nabad-diidka ee doonaya in dalku dawlad la’aan noqdo. Waxaa dadkeennu isla wada gartay in dalkeennu aan innaga leenahay, inuu innaga ina wada sugayo. Daliilka ugu fududna waa kumannaanka qurbo joogta ah ee ka soo tagay noloshii raaxada lahayd ee ay ku haysteen dhulalka shisheeye iyo kumaananka qaxootiga ah ee ka soo noqonaya dalalka deriska ah oo waliba dib u soo dagayo goboladda iyo deegaanada kala duwan oo meelaha qaar ay ka jiraan duruufo nololeed oo adag. Waxaan jeclahay inaan sheego in dibudhiska dalkeenna ka socdo maanta ay tahay wax ay dadka Soomaaliyeed qabsanayaan, in yar oo taageero ah ayaa inaga soo gaarta dunida kale. Waxaannu ka soo gudubnay marxaladii aan dadka u sheegi jirnay in baahi badan loo qabo jiritaanka dawladnimada, waxaan ku jirnaa marxaladii dhismaha kalsoonida dadkeenna ku qabaan nidaamka dawladeed. Maanta waxa dadka Soomaaliyeed oo aad adinka madaxda u tihiin ka hadlayaan waa siday u wanaagsanaan lahayd dawladnimadeenna, ma arag cid aaminsan in aan iska duminno waxa aan haysanno. Waxaa maanta loo tartamayaa shaqada dawladda oo marar hore laga carari jiray, waxaannu leenahay ciidan qaran iyo hay’ado dawladeed. Shalay oo ugu dambaysay waxaan waraaqahii aqoonsiga ka guddoomay Safiirka Kanada oo ah safiirkii 48 ee aan aqoonsanno 20kii bilood ee la soo dhaafay. Muuqaalka Labaad; Wali dalkeennu waxuu ku jiraa kaalinta ugu hooseeysa ee dalalka adduunka dhinaca amniga, dhaqaalaha, kobaca bani’aadanka iyo degenaanshaha siyaasadeed. Waxaa wali na haysata diifta dagaalladii sokeeye, falalka argagxisada oo muuqaal xun ka bixinaya dalkeenna iyo dadkeenaba. Waxaa nalagu magacaabaa qaxooti, argagixiso, burcadbadeed, tahriibayaal, ma shaqaystayaal cayr ah iyo waxyaabo la mid ah. Waxaannu culays ku noqonay beesha caalamka oo ay ka mid yihiin dalalka dariskeenna ah, waxanna tusaale u noqonay Ummad aan hanan karin nafteeda iskaba daa inaan ka faaidaysanno khayraadka Ilaahay nagu mannaystay.Waxaa wali qaarkeen ku weyn xusuusta wixii la soo dhaafay, oo mar mar u ekaanaya inay xiiso u qabaan maalmo murugo lahaa oo aan ka soo gudubnay. Shaki wayn baan kala qabnaa, bulshadana ka qabtaa in wixii hore wax la mid ah dhacaan, taasina waxay keenaysaa in caalamkuna naga shakiyo, hadaan innaga is aamini waynana cid kale nama aaminayso. Waxaan isweydiiyaa labadaas muuqaal keebaa mudan inaynu xoojinno, mid waa inaynu dib eegno misna gadaal u noqonno, midka kalena waa inaynu hore u soconno, adkaysanno isla markaana illowno iskana cafino wixii xanuunka lahaa ee ina soo maray. Dadkeenna maanta waxaa talada ku wada jira seddex jiil oo hadda hortayda ka muuqda, oo waalid isu noqon kara. Kuwii hana qaaday maalinkaan xorriyadda qaadannay, oo ay ku wayn tahay qiirada wadaninimada, midnimda dalka, nacaybka faragelinta shisheeye iwm, sidoo kale jiil soo maray dagaaladii sokeeye, tabasho badan ka qaba habka iyo nidaamka dawldnimo, shaki ka qabo wax kasta, aaminsan in la khiyaanayo iyo jiil dhallinyaro ah oo ah kan ugu badan dadkeenna tiro ahaan. Kuwaasi waa kuwa xaqa u leh inay inaga dhaxlaan dawlad ku dhisan sharci iyo kala dambayn, dal la tartami kara deriska iyo caalamka, kuna naalloon kara nolol karaamo leh, kuwaa ayaana ah inaan u danqanno, tallaabo kasta oo siyaasadeed oo aan qadayno maanta waa inaynu isweydiinnaa saameeynta ay kuwaas ku yeelan doonto. Waxaan doonayaa inaan caddeeyo arrimaha soo socdo: 1-Dawladnimadeenna maanta kuma dhisno xisbi aqlabiyad haysta oo talada ku adkaaday, jabhad xoog dalka ku qabsatay, sidoo kale ma nihin madax ajnabi keensaday. Dibudhiska dawladnimadeenna wuxuu ku yimid fool culus oo waliba inagu dheeraatay burburkii ka dib. Waxaan dhamaanteen ku nimid is afgarad ku salysan qaab beeleed annagoo og in xataa beelaheennu aanay lahayn qaab nidaamsan oo aan isku matalno. Waxaan haysanno waa wixii garaadkeenna iyo awooddeenu ina gaarsiisay. Waxaan jeclahay inaan caddeeyo in dastuurka KMG ah ee aan ku dhaqanno uu aniga iga horeeyay oo aanan wax talo ah maalinna ku yeelan siduu u samaysan yahay, sidoo kale waxaan ahaa xildhibaan aad isku mar soo gasheen golahaan barlamaanka. Anigana waxaan ku imid doorasho aad aqlabiyadda codkiina igu siiseen idinkoo xor ah, fursadna u haysta inaad doorataan qofkii aad doontaan. Waxaa taas ka dambeeyay waa inaan soo xulay Raiisal wasaare aad idinku cod aqlabiyad ah ku ansaxiseen, sidoo kale xukuumadiisana aqlabiyad ku ansaxiseen. Waadna wada ogtihiin inaanay ahayn dad aniga xigtonimo iyo saaxiibtinimo gaar ah aan ku keenay, waxaad ogtihiin sida talo wadaaga ah ee aad uga qeyb gasheen dhismaha xukuumadda, xulidda wasiirada iyo ansaxinta barnaamijkeeda, iyadoo boqolkiiba lixdan (60%) golaha wasiiraddu ay yihiin xubno ka tirsan Baarlamaankan. Waxaan rabaa inaan diyaar u ahaanno inaan masuuliyadda wada yeelanno oo aanan la isku tuur-tuurin. 2-Maalmo dhawayd saaxiibbo badan oo golahan ka tirsan ayaa ii soo jeediyay eedayn ku qotanta 14 qodob oo ku dhamaanaysay in la fashilmay, madaxweynahuna masuul ka yahay. Waxaan waqti badan ku bixinnay inaan is-faham, wada hadal iyo isu garawsho wax ku xallino. Way ku mahadsan yihiin saaxiibadii soo jeedintaa iska lahaa, anna waxaan ku faraxsanahay inaan maanta inagoon dagaalamayn walina is jecel aan si xor ah wax isugu sheegi karno. Waxaan garwaaqsaday in soo jeedintaas ay ku salaysan tahay cabsi laga qabo inuu hirgeli waayo isbeddel dhab ah oo suurta gelin kara in la gaaro xasilooni, dawlad wanaag iyo doorashooyin sannadka 2016. Anigana anoo garwaaqsanayo cabsiyahaas jiri kara waxaan gartay inaan masulliyadda cid kale dusha ka saarin oo aniga aan qaato. 3-Waxaan doonayaa inaan idiin caddeeyo in aan ku kalsoonahay xukuumadda uu masuul ka yahay Raiisalwasaaraha oo aan aniga kalsooni ku soo xulay idinkana aad taageerteen. Waxaan si cad marar badan u sheegay in isaga iyo golahiisa wasiiradda masuul ka yihiin fulinta howlaha xukuumadda. Xukuumadda oo uu hoggaaminayo Raiisalwasaaraha waxaan hortiinna mar kale ugu sheegayaa inay haystaan kalsoonidayda, xorna u yihiin fulinta barnaamijkooda, barlamaankuna xaq ugu leeyahay inuu la xisaabtamo, anigana sidoo kale inaan soo kordhin doono qaab lagula xisaabtamo waxqabadka xukuumadda. unnamed (69) 4-Golaha shacabka oo ah cidda maanta matalaysa shacabka soomaaliyeed oo dhan, wuxuu leeyahay muhimado ku qoran dastuurka iyo kuwa kale oo ay ina tusayso waajibka naga saaran dawlad dhiska xilligan xasaasiga ah. Ansaxinta hindise sharciyeedyada, wacyigelinta bulshada, kaabidda hay’adaha xukuumadda iyo qurxinta muuqaalka dawladnimada. Waxaan ka xumahay inay sii kordhayso dareenka ay shacabku ka qabaan barlamaanka iyo muuqaalada soo if baxayay mudooyinkan dambe oo ah in barlamaanku noqday: gole aan shaqo qaban, kulamadiisa daahaan, saacado yar shaqeeya, wax soo saarkiisa yar yahay, marka uu howl u dhaqaaqayo amaba guntankiisa buuxana uu yahay markuu u taagan yahay dhaliisha iyo caqabadaynta howlaha xukuumadda. Waxaa nasiib darro ah in xildhibaannada qaar ay meeshii ay colaadaha, qabyaaladda, danaysiga iyo sumcad xumada bulshadeenna ku habsatay ay ka bogsiin lahaayen, inay iyaga ku sifoobaan waxyaabahaas. Waxaan rajaynayaa inaan iska laabno boggaas foosha xun, waqtiga yar ee aan haysannana uu ku baxo inaan dhamaystirno howlaha qabyada inoo ah iyo inaan soo celinno sumcadeenna iyo karaamada dadka aan matalno. Baarlamaanka waa hay’addii dalka u sarraysay, lehna awoodo dastuuri ah, shacabkuna kama garaysanayo inay iyagoo dadka iyo dalka masuul ka ah isagu diraan dhambaallo dhiillo ah qalabka warbaahinta, una dacwoodaan hay’ado ajnabi ah. Waa inaad aamintaan inaad dalka idinka leedihiin masuulna ka tihiin. 5-Haddaan u soo laabto dawr-kayga, waxaan doonayaa inaan idiin caddeeyo inuu yahay inaan dalkan ku hoggaamiyo wixii aan u dhaartay ee ahaa danta dadka, dalka iyo diinta, taasi oo ay ka mid tahay ilaalinta qarannimadiisa madaxbanaanidiisa, midnimadiisa iyo wadajirka dadkiisa. Waxaan ballan qaadayaa inaan si hagar la’aan ah uga shaqeeyo inuu dalkan mudada inoo hartay ku gaaro dastuur ilaalinaya wadajirkiisa, midnimadiisa iyo madaxbaanidiisa, inaan u taagnaado ilaalinta hantida qaranka iyo soo celinta karaamada muwaadinka iyo in 2016 ay ka dhacaan doorashooyin. Si ay u suurto gasho isla xisaabtan dhab ah oo aan aniguba diyaar u ahay, waxaan jeclahay in qaarkiin aysan iska dhaadhacsiinin in madaxweynihii aad doorateen uusan lahaanin wax awood ah, oo mar dastuurkeenna qabyada ah lagu gacmo xiro, marna dhaqankeenna siyaasadeed ee qabiilka iyo danaysiga shaqsiyeed ku dhisan lagu lugo xiro , marna doodaha xubnaha iyo dacaayadahooda loogu gooddiyo, marka aan ka nasiib darannahayna waa marka aynu ajnabi u kala dacwoonno si gacmaha iyo lugahaba la inooga xiro. 6-Waxaa muhiim ah inaynu isla garanno xaaladda aan ku sugannahay, ma jirto xog isku keen seeggan, awoodda dawlada ay leedahay, dhaqaalaha soo gala, xiriirkeeda caalamiga iyo kartideedaba.Sidaa darteed ma filayo inay jirto cid inaga mid ah oo aaminsan in dibudhiska dawladnimada ay fududahay inagoo soo marnay bur burkaa xoogga leh oo dhinac kasta ah, waxaan doonayna oo dhanna kuma hirgali karaan awoodda yar ee aan leenahay iyo muddada gaaban ee aan isla joogno. Waxaa la innaga doonayaa inaan xoogga saarno, mudnaantana siinno sida ay howlaha ugu kala muhimsan yihiin gaarista Hiigsiga 2016, xaaladdan ku wajahno midnimo, is qaddarin iyo masuuliyad wadareed. 7-Waxaan naftayda iyo tiinaba ku dardaarminayaa in aan u wada is taagno in aan gaarno meesha umadda Soomaaliyeed ay inaga filayso in aan waddanka gaarsiinno, sidoo kale, in aan dawlad wanaag tusaale wanaagsan ah aan muujinno oo xusuus ku reebta shacabka Soomaaliyeed. Maanta waxaan haysannaa fursadii aan Soomaaliya ugu samayn lahayn taariikh wanaagsan oo beddesha maalmaheennii madoobaa. Sidoo kale qof kasta oo inaga mid ah taariikhdaas ayuu wax ka samaynayaa, waa inuu qof kasta maanta doortaa sida uu jecel yahay inay taariikhda u xusto. Gabagabadii waxaa xusid mudan in wada shaqaynta iyo midnimada hay’adaha dawladdu ay muhiim u tahay in la laba-laabo waxqabadka shacabku inaga dhoowrayaan. Aad iyo aad ayaad u Mahadsantihiin Wabilaahi Towfiiq

Not cool.

None and all.

http://universalsomalitv.com/infusions/media/home He was asked many uncomfortable questions and listened to critical comments.

lol@looting farms, no kidding?

No and no!

I am thinking Uruguay. The 1990 World Cup was memorable but for different reason. It sucks I won't be able to catch tomorrow's game.

^Your solution to the problem is to create more headache?

Doc. There's no perfect time or circumstance, just do it or you will just see more obstacles in your way. But don't marry for the sake of marrying. Galbeedi. We live in melting pot and our young ones will marry people they grow with up. I don't know about Canada but Somalis in US are doing relatively good. I have seen and know many young professionals both men and women, and many of these actually do marry each other. When it comes to the issue of women doing better, it's true up to a point but we are not that different than other ethnic or racial groupings, women in general among all races are excelling. More women than men are graduating from schools though men still dominate sciences. As for the Somali male in general, we live in suspended reality, an atmosphere devoid of ideas but there's a hope!

Reflection from glass might temporarily blind pilots hehe

Good thing he went to Xamar! Knowing how stupid our people are, his clan would have demanded his release if he was held in Puntland.

http://www.wardheernews.com/m-lewis-somali-clanship-critique/

Don't politicize this poor man's misfortune! If you are not going to help, at least leave him alone.

Ethiopia will either implode or is on trajectory to greatness.

Galbeedi, just be grateful burahadeer didn't slit your throat.

People should be calm and politicians need to tread carefully.

If this is usual, one wonders what qualifies as unusual. Though I think this matter will be eventually settled, it shows the cracks withing the party and the delicate partnership that are based on tribal and individual interest.

Inauguration of Somali tribal King attracts biggest audience http://hiiraan.com/news4/2014/May/54860/inauguration_of_somali_tribal_king_attracts_biggest_audience.aspx#sthash.PjyIQkO4.dpbs Yes, galbeedi , it seems they set new standard by Somali standards of course. P.s. when did reer Musa Boqor became kings of a whole tribe hehe, I vote in W sultanate as the kings of the family:-)
