    This secessionist troll's obsession with 'laan' is on next level. What an incel oo ku waashay laan, laan, laan. Soco gabar raadso, not that you will find one.

    Also reminded me what a Reer Xamar lady in berisamaadkii said to a new neighbour who moved to her xaafad. Waqooyiga ka timid oo ku waalatay 'laandheere, laandheere.'

    Maalintii dambe loogu jawaabay, "Ninkaaga ku dhib qabo laankaaga dheer."

    From that day, ma dambe laandheerenimo lagama maqlin.

    • Haha - That was funny. You made me laugh! 3

    What are you basing that on?

    What would the the motivation?

    Have you travelled through the Bay, Bakool, and Sh Hoose regions? If so, would you say the average person is interested in elections? I ask, for we know reer PL were not as motivated with only 170 thousand voting of the registered 400 thousand, despite the dispute, and their exclusion of the largest voting block aged 16-18. Reer SL were motivated by recognition. What would be the motivating factors for reer SW?

    Soomaalis meel walba ee joogaan are motivated codkooda dhiibtaan for a genuine doorasho since 1969.

    Heck, Reer Xuddur, Waajid iyo Diinwoor golaha deegaanadooda iyagaa isdoortay. Golaha iska dhex doortay guddoomiyaha degmada oo ah wiilal dhalinyaro ah.

    Türkiye elections: World leaders congratulate Erdogan on 'historic victory'

    World leaders have extended their congratulatory messages to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan following his victory in the presidential runoff.

    Erdogan secured a commanding win on Sunday, amassing over 27 million votes in the face of opposition candidate Kemal Kilicdaroglu’s showing over 25 million votes.

    As international leaders join in extending their felicitations to Erdogan, Qatari Emir Tamim bin Hamad was the first world leader to congratulate Erdogan, writing on social media.

    "My dear brother Recep Tayyip Erdogan, congratulations on your victory - I wish you success in your new term - I wish for our strong relations to further our countries' development & growth."

    Under Erdogan, Türkiye was one of the first countries that aided Qatar after a blockade was imposed by its Gulf neighbours in 2017.

    Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh also issued a congratulatory message to Erdogan and the Turkish people for the president's election victory.

    Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin said the election victory "was a natural result of your selfless work" of Erdogan as leader of Türkiye.

    "We highly appreciate your personal contribution to the strengthening of friendly Russian-Turkish relations and mutually beneficial cooperation in various areas," Putin said.

    Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban also sent his message, praising, Erdogan's "unquestionable election victory".

    In a lengthy message posted on Twitter, Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif called Erdogan's victory "historic".

    "He is one of few world leaders whose politics has been anchored in public service. He has been a pillar of strength for the oppressed Muslims & a fervent voice for their inalienable rights."

    "I keenly look forward to working with him to further deepen our strategic partnership in line with the excellent brotherhood between our two peoples."

    Meanwhile, Somalia's President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud was the first African leader to congratulate Erdogan.

    In a social media post, he wrote, "It’s a true testament to your great leadership. As such, I join billions world-wide who prayed for you & the people of Türkiye towards this success."

    Videos posted on social media also showed celebrations in Syria and Azerbaijan after it Erdogan's victory became clear.

    He knows Xasan can't be trusted and will probably say SW will crumble in few weeks Laftagareen should go on with local elections. More importantly, he knows HSM's clan will dispute local elections in Lower Shabelle. SW is literally at the gates of Mogadishu and reer SW will be a big constituents should genuine elections are held in Banadir.

    When reer-ku-qabso-ku-qadi-meydidee afaaraha Shabeellaha Hoose soo qaadan, I just ask a simple question - why Afgooye is called af-gooye?

    Kuwooda wax og wey ogyihiin oo wey aamusaan iyo taariikh hore waaye keenaan. Laakiin kuwooda moooryaanta ah jawaabta wey ku wareeraan.

    Afgooye sababta loogu bixiyey degmadaas waa meeshee Afmaayga iyo Afmaxaaga ku kala bixi jireen. North of wabiga Afmaay land officially ahaa.

    Looks like Laftagareen and Qoorqoor had their way. They insert the bit about Puntland.

    Xalay dhan hoteelka uu Laftagareen ka deganyahay Xamar ku noqnoqonaayeen ergo ka socotay Xasan Socdaal, desperately asking to drop that position. I am surprised Lafta insisted this long, since it is not something major. I guess qadiyadiisa ayaa adag, plus he wants to do doorasho deegaan in Koonfur Galbeed.

    I hope he sticks with the election. He needs to clean up Lower Shabelle.

    He is supposed to hold (s)elections at the end of this year. But now sanad kale ayuuba helayaa if horudhaca shirka qarankaan socdo run yahay. All maamul goboleed agreed to hold (s)elections at the same time in Nofeembar, 2024.

    Will mucaaradka Qoorqoor, Laftagareen, Axmed Madoobe iyo Guudlaawe accept this? I don't think so.

    About Shabeellaha Hoose, he actually cleaned many moooryaans from it. All degmooyinka dadka u dhashay maamula with their own local ciidamo. Kuwa shaatiga 'ciidamada qaranka' gishan ayaa joogo, but that will soon change after deegaanka laga ciribtiro kuwa afka duuban.

    There were some rumours after Xasan's caleemasaar a year ago that he wants a la Carab-style strongman in Soomaaliya. Mahad Qalaaye ayaa la qabo saas.

    He thinks he can use force to make Soomaalis submit, especially those in Xamar and around. Ruling Xamar = Soomaaliya.

    Xamar iyo Soomaaliya ayuu isku qaldaayaa, wuuna ogaan doonaa.

    How is this constitutional, that is replacing ra'iisul wasaaraha position to madaxweyne kuxigeen.

    Regardless if this current baarlamaan accept and approve it, Soomaalis need afti (referendum) for major changes like this.

    I personally support replacing ra'iisul wasaare to madaxweyne kuxigeen in order isqabqabsiga u yaraado; however, that needs a constitutional approval. We don't even have permanent axdi/constitution.

    Honestly, what was Turkiga before him two decades ago other than a perennially broke, prone to coups, forever begging E.U. for admittance. Greece was more powerful and influential than them. Heck Liibiya's Qadaafi was.

    I remember seeing a family friend who came back to Nayroobi in 1994 after several years in Istanbuul. The guy looked like a homeless, Turkiga meel ma'aha ku haaye.

    Now Turkiga has one of the top airlines in the world. Biggest airport in Yurub, with one of the most visited countries. All these mega infrastructures and projects, an economic and military powerhouse. And much respected in the ummah.

    No, one step at a time. Reer Garowe will come round. No group is more enraged that reer Nugaal today, and this young lady's fiery spirit demonstrates that, albeit she misses the point of democracy, and elections. It is not about the use of force, but consensus building. And of course listening to the public, and now the public must express its frustration on Aaran Jaan.

    Treasury Designates Terror Operatives and Illicit Charcoal Smugglers in Somalia

    May 24, 2023

    WASHINGTON — Today, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) targeted 26 individuals and entities connected with the terrorist group al-Shabaab, including 15 financial facilitators and operatives, four charcoal smugglers, and seven of their associated companies. This action targets key regional leaders, affiliates, and members of the terrorist group in Somalia who are involved in a wide range of activities in support of al-Shabaab, including financial facilitation, business activities, collection of funds on behalf of the terrorist group, proliferation of Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), and illegal charcoal smuggling from Somalia, all of which have exacerbated local conflicts and suffering. 

    “Today’s designations highlight al-Shabaab’s reliance on networks of regional and international actors and entities, who provide funds, direct attacks, and enable the group’s malign activities, including the manufacturing and planting of explosives in local communities and fostering corruption,” said Under Secretary of the Treasury for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence Brian E. Nelson. “The United States remains committed to leveraging our authorities in support of our partners, such as the Federal Government of Somalia, in their efforts to counter terrorist threats, which undermine both national and regional stability and security.”

    These OFAC actions are taken pursuant to Executive Order (E.O.) 13224, as amended, which targets terrorist groups and their supporters, and E.O. 13536, as amended, which targets actors who directly or indirectly threaten the peace, security, or stability of Somalia. Concurrent with Treasury’s designations, the U.S. Department of State designated five al-Shabaab leaders pursuant to E.O. 13224, as amended, for their leadership roles within al-Shabaab.

    SOMALI CHARCOAL SMUGGLING NETWORK

    The four charcoal smugglers designated today have operated primarily between Somalia and the Persian Gulf, engaging in the illegal export of charcoal from Somalia. Charcoal smuggling has contributed to local conflicts and revenue generation for groups like al-Shabaab, as well as causing deforestation and other environmental damage. The illicit charcoal trade has previously generated the equivalent of more than $20 million in revenue per year for its associated smugglers, traffickers, and al-Shabaab. Due to its role in fueling instability in Somalia and serving as a source of revenue for criminal and terrorist organizations, the export and import of Somali charcoal after 2012 was banned pursuant to United Nations Security Council Resolution 2036.

    Ali Ahmed Naaji

    Ali Ahmed Naaji (Naaji) has been a supplier and coordinator for the illicit Somali charcoal trade since at least 2013. Naaji has facilitated the export of charcoal from Somalia to the United Arab Emirates (UAE), involving up to 90,000 bags of charcoal in 2016 alone. As part of Naaji’s role as a smuggler, he has coordinated between charcoal suppliers, traffickers, and al-Shabaab, to include facilitating payments for moving the charcoal to al-Shabaab. Naaji has also brokered a revenue sharing agreement between the charcoal producers and al-Shabaab, as well as traffickers, and has facilitated revenue payments to al-Shabaab.

    Additionally, Naaji is an al-Shabaab financial facilitator and has maintained a relationship with the terrorist group since at least 2011, when he stored and distributed al-Shabaab’s petroleum supplies in Somalia. Naaji has also been identified as a former al-Shabaab revenue collector for mandatory donations.

    Naaji is the owner and Chief Executive Officer of Jamame Brothers Company, a Somalia-based company that has business ties to the UAE, Kenya, Djibouti, China, India, and Pakistan. As recently as mid-2022, Naaji transferred nearly $1.2 million to Jamame Brothers Company to finance al-Shabaab. Naaji has additionally purchased nearly 2,500 metric tons of gasoline and 2,000 metric tons of gas oil for a business linked to the Jamame Brothers Company.

    Naaji is being designated pursuant to E.O. 13536, as amended, for having engaged, directly or indirectly, in the import or export of charcoal from Somalia on or after February 22, 2012. Jamame Brothers Company is being designated pursuant to E.O. 13536, as amended, for being owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by Naaji.

    Bashir Khalif Musse and his UAE- and Djibouti-based Companies

    Since at least 2013, Bashir Khalif Musse (Musse), a businessman based in Dubai, UAE, has been involved in the illicit charcoal trade out of Somalia. Musse has facilitated the transshipment of charcoal through Iraq and Iran ultimately to the UAE. In addition, Musse has used fraudulent charcoal shipping paperwork, such as certificates of origin and bills of lading, to facilitate his charcoal smuggling operations. As recently as 2022, Musse has continued to engage in the illicit charcoal trade, having illicitly shipped approximately 4,400 metric tons of charcoal from Somalia to the UAE.

    Musse owns or controls the following UAE-based companies also designated today: Sitti General Trading LLC, Kismayo General Trading LLC, and Bushra Bachir Shipping and Logistics Services L.L.C. Musse additionally owns or controls Djibouti-based companies Red Sea Transit & Transport Service and Royal Shipping Agency.

    Sitti General Trading LLC was the consignee and Bushra Bachir Shipping and Logistics Services L.L.C. was the charter party of the 2022 charcoal shipment from Somalia to the UAE, in which Musse was involved.

    Since at least 2013, Kismayo General Trading LLC has been involved in the production of fraudulent paperwork and repackaging of charcoal cargoes to disguise their origin to facilitate its import to Persian Gulf countries.

    Musse has similarly used Red Sea Transit & Transport Service to obtain false bills of lading. Naaji was also responsible for a shipment that used both Red Sea Transit & Transport Service and Kismayo General Trading LLC.

    Musse is being designated pursuant to E.O. 13536, as amended, for having engaged, directly or indirectly, in the import or export of charcoal from Somalia on or after February 22, 2012. Sitti General Trading LLC, Kismayo General Trading LLC, Red Sea Transit & Transport Service, Royal Shipping Agency, and Bushra Bachir Shipping and Logistics Services L.L.C. are being designated pursuant to E.O. 13536, as amended, for being owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by Musse.

    Mariam Barreh

    Mariam Barreh (Barreh) is the director of Bushra Bachir Shipping and Logistics Services L.L.C., which was implicated in the 2022 shipment of Somali charcoal in which Musse had an interest. Barreh is a partner and investor in Bushra Bachir Shipping and Logistics Services L.L.C., however the business is ultimately controlled by her spouse, Musse.

    Barreh is being designated pursuant to E.O. 13536, as amended, for having engaged, directly or indirectly, in the import or export of charcoal from Somalia on or after February 22, 2012.

    Abdiwahab Noor Abdi

    As of 2014, Abdulwahab Noor Abdi (Abdi), also known as “Tomato,” had brokered the charter for a charcoal delivery to Oman from al-Shabaab-controlled territory in Somalia. Abdi’s operations have been referred to by locals as “Iskaashatada Yaanyo,” or the “Tomato Association.”

    Naaji, Abdi’s business partner, has sent funds to Abdi totaling approximately $200,000. Both Abdi and Naaji have also previously collected funds for al-Shabaab.

    Abdi is a five percent shareholder in and has been the General Manager of Al Nezam Al Asasy General Trading L.L.C since 2017. Abdi was also previously the Director of Al Nezam Al Asasy General Trading L.L.C since 2012.

    Al Nezam Al Asasy General Trading L.L.C has separately received nearly $200,000 from Naaji. Between 2020 and 2022, Al Nezam Al Asasy General Trading L.L.C and Jamame Brothers Company have been involved in receiving at least ten Somali charcoal shipments in the UAE.

    Abdi is being designated pursuant to E.O. 13536, as amended, for having engaged, directly or indirectly, in the import or export of charcoal from Somalia on or after February 22, 2012. Al Nezam Al Asasy General Trading L.L.C is being designated pursuant to E.O. 13536, as amended, for being owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by Abdi.
