Tribesman and Warlord Abdullah Yusuf: The Major Obstacle to Somali Reconciliation Process

 

 

After Embagati Group appointed Nur Adow the Prime Minister of Transitional Government of Somalia, He worked hard to bridge between the illegitimate Alliance of Re-liberation of Somalia (ARS) and Embagati Group led by the Ailing Warlord Abdullah Yusuf. Adow gave much of his time to the stability of the vicious Mogadishu and stop the organized killing against his people by Embagati Group.

 

He exhibited his agenda and policy to International Communities, and fortunately he won the international support. Noor Adow agenda was to stabilize Mogadishu and stop the revenge killing in addition to displacement against his Hawiyo tribe in their home city.

 

He succeeded to establish communication channel with ARS major members including Former Chief of Islamic Courts Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed and many other core members in ARS. This resulted in the famous peace agreement in Djibouti between Nur Adow and ARS leader Sheikh Sharif. The hardliners in ARS like Sheikh Dahir Aweys rejected the agreement and even ARS Council suspended the membership of Sheikh Sharif. This is new beginning of disintegration of ARS.

 

The ARS members who support Sheikh Sharif peace deal with Adow relocated their offices to Djibouti from Asmara, Eritrea. The majority of the ARS hardliners remain in Asmara, regardless of international and regional support to Sheikh Sharif peace deal. The hardliner Sheikh Dahir Aweys called the extension of war against Ethiopian forces in Mogadishu. He vowed to fight the Ethiopians with or without the peace deal in Djibouti.

 

The warlord Transitional Government of Somalia Abdullah Yusuf is not happy with current peace process and reconciliation led by Prime Minister Nur Adow. The Warlord Yusuf want to burn off Mogadishu and its people before leaving it; he is also planning to displace the people of Mogadishu mainly Hawiyo and replace them with ********** Militia as new inhabitants of Mogadishu. This is not new policy to Somali regimes, where Siyad Barre (leader of Somalia 1969-1991) imported large number of ****** tribesmen and Oromo people from Ethiopia into Northern Regions of Somalia (Known Somaliland) during 1980’s after Somalia-Ethiopia War. Siyad Barre intended to displace the people in northern regions by bombing their regions and order the refuges to take over the cities.

 

The Djibouti peace deal between Nur Adow government and some of ARS leaders increased fear of Warlord Abdullah Yusuf that Hawiyo tribe may unite against him and fail his illegal and evil plans to kill the people of Mogadishu. Nur Adow took initiative steps to implement the agreed conditions in Djibouti. These steps triggered disagreements between him and Abdullah Yusuf, particularly after Nur Adow sacked the fake Mayor of Mogadishu Maxamed Dheere. Abdullah Yusuf rejected the suspension decision of Adow and gave back Maxamed Dheere his position.

 

The ARS consider Maxamed Dheere a murder of civilians in Mogadishu who don’t have self respect except the dirty money he gets from Abdullah Yusuf. Dheere is the right arm of the Tribesman and Warlord Abdullah Yusuf in the organized killing campaign. Abdullah Yusuf’s Secret Intelligence Department arrested thousands of Mogadishu innocent citizens; they torture the prisoners and even demand ransom money to release them; British Channel 4 broadcasted the story of Abdullah Yusuf’s officials mainly in Intelligence Department. Many journalists described such prisoners as hostages of Abdullah Yusuf’s Puntland gang.

 

Nur Adow sacked Maxamed Dheere as first step to eliminate the corrupted administration mainly the close alliance of Abdullah Yusuf. Yusuf is planning now to suspend Adow like Former Prime Minister Ali Geedi too. Yusuf is planning to seek the support of the parliament. He asked the parliament “Vote of Confidence” to Adow government. Even, Abdullah Yusuf turned down the request of Sheikh Sharif of ARS to come to Jowhar City of Somalia as agreed with Nur Adow in Djibouti.

 

Abdullah Yusuf asked his gang members in Adow cabinet to resign from the government in an attempt to downgrade the government. But Nur Adow took another courageous step and replaced all the ministers in less than 48 hours with support from Ethiopian government. The policy behind the resignation of the minister was to label the government of Nur Adow as incapable government to run the country and restore the security in Mogadishu like the accusations against government of Geedi.

 

Nur Adow is different than Ali Geedi including his policies and support between the people of Mogadishu. Because Ali Geedi failed to stop the killing and genocide by Abdullah Yusuf’s gang in Mogadishu, as also, he failed to win the support of the Ethiopians. Nur Adow, established him self as the only man who can restore the peace in Somalia.

 

Nur Adow will not be an easy target for Abdullah Yusuf and his gang, because he has political weight in Somalia and the world too. He showed signs of honesty to the Somalis mainly the people of Mogadishu. He was former chief of Red Cross in Somalia, which gives him merciful heart to the innocent people. The Somalis in Mogadishu believe that Nur Adow is the only man who can end the illegal activities of Abdullah’s Secret Intelligence Agents, who kill the people based on tribe.

 

This proves the tribesman and warlord Abdullah Yusuf as the destabilizing factor of Somalia, and that he is thinking only to rule the country in the rest of his life. Abdullah Yusuf, who is from ********** tribe in Puntland, need to take revenge from Hawiyo people, because of bad feelings back to 1991 war in Mogadishu.

 

The question lingering in my mind is, Will Abdullah Yusuf be able to suspend Nur Adow? Will Ethiopians support the peace-man Nur Adow or Warlord Abdullah Yusuf? What will be the future of Somalia after suspension of Nur Adow? Will Abdullah Yusuf nominee Maxamed Dheere as substitute of Nur Adow?

 

The future of Somalia remains in dark as long as the murder and warlord Abdullah Yusuf remains on the top post of the country. We ask Allah the Almighty to help the Somalis in building up their lost nation. Amin

The first three paragraphs were enough to make me stop reading any furthur

Rabish! His names says all "Abdulaziz Al-Mutairi" Another Arab wanna be Somali expert. Experts articules can't change situation in Somalia, only money and military power can. He can write his stuff, but it will not have iota of impacts on Somalia's stability. He is only good for writing about how successful Northren Somalia is.. Another waste time for nothing.

[ilax]

Sory, too much rabish and non-sense message.This article is waste of time and has nothing to be loved. The somali politics is beyond the tribalism and it is getting more in to ideological and semi-politcal strugle. The incubant president is neither represent his *****tan clan nor Somalis, he is just pupet and stooge of Abaysenia, so if you have the old story, please shutdown and keep quit. Somali is One and will remain one, n=insha allah, all will unite one day, if allah say.
