Crisis in Puntland. Cause and solutio?

Recommended Posts

Abdul   

Faroole's lack of leadership skills is most evident whenever there is crisis.He will call anyone even a whole clan terrorist or alshabab.This is no way to lead.

Thankful,

 

There is no such thing as Al Shabab in Galkacyo -- at least in the context of this event. What happened in Galkacyo was unfortuante event and should never happen again.
Al hamduLilaah elders are knee deep in resolving the misunderstanding
. Hope they succeed in their task of adjudicating btw querraling sides.

 

Faroole failed.
His security personnel -- trigger happy -- traspassed their boundaries. They acted as if they are the judge, jury, and executioner. No-go in clan-based society. It appeared as if they are in charge of every decision made, and they have the power to detain or kill whomever they choose
.

Baashi, I think you have a point there.

 

Puntland is contructed on the basis of a clan confederacy with equal participation of clans in its political and governance process. This has worked in creating peace between the sub-clans. But creating the foundations for strong, neutral and independent civil institutions who have earned the trust of the public has become more challenging.

 

Cade Muuse invested a great deal in dialogue, participation and seeking constant mandate from clan elders in Puntland political process. Knowing Puntland is build on the basis of clans. By this there were hardly investments left for the development of Puntland's public insitutions(back then soldiers were randomly paid, money was printed, inflation was high, piracy started flourishing).

 

Faroole's Agenda on the hand was to invest and proffesionalize Puntland public institutions. Goverment started investing in infrastructure, equipment for security forces, Soldiers, teachers and goverment personell received their salaries. In this process he neglected and hardly paid any attention to clan elders and grievances clans had. By this he has challenged the clan-confederancy which was the fundamental principle Puntland was build on.

 

This has contributed to the current governance crisis or lack of it. Where incidents easly escalate to large proportions, dissatisfied regions break away from Puntland(Makhir, SSC, Rascaseyr), mistrust of institutions (PIS, PSF).

The main problem and the biggest obstacle in Puntland now actually seems to be Faroole. This president may have lost the confidence of many, if not the majority, of Puntlanders and is painfully incapable of putting anything right.

 

For those more knowledgeable, is there any way he can be forced to resign or have his term cut short? Probably this route would be through the parliament and some of the stuff I have read seems to imply the moral will exists but perhaps the political will doesn't? Is the parliament capable or toothless when it comes to this?

 

 

Some of the general insecurity possibly has more to do with the existence of an armed population and can happen anywhere.

Its to easy to blame everything on Faroole. Dont forget that before Faroole's Presidency, Puntland had many other problems which Faroole actually solved.

Here are two suggestions made;

 

Mustafa Dhuxulow (TFG parliamentarian) sardonically suggested sending AMISOM to Gaalkacyo residential areas. Another person wrote an article asking; since reer Puntland bought a liver for Yey and a kidney for Cadde Muuse, isn't it about time they bought a brain for Faroole?

Thankful   

If only the secessionists focused less on what is going on in Puntland and more on their failed independence bid, I believe they may have been able to get atl east 1 country to recognize them.

Thankful, you're a smart boy with a bright future. God willing you'll become a leader of Puntland and your citizens will pay for funny bone transplant.

Faroole is at times a mad man but he did not create the political and security challenges Puntland is facing today. And they are primarily two: SSC and the sore point that is Galkacyo.

 

In SSC it is a question of clan ego. In Galkacyo, it is a matter of resource not to fight enemies but to bring governance where non existed for the last twenty years.

 

One can effectively argue that Farole was not helpful for both matters. But the suggestion of his resignation is bit over the top.

^^ War Xiinow beryahan Imaam Faroole qiil baad u raadinaysaa. The man has zero and no good from his record to defend. I once thought Cade Muse as being "Beezaani" Ciyaalka xaafada, was a total failure to lead P/L when he showed many weaknesses in terms of decision making and being firm to his points.. More like he was "Yaakhiiyo kuwaan see camal waaye"..

 

However Imaam Faroole brought far more weaknesses in to the fold than Cade did. He is totally disastrous, incompetency, clanist who is good for nothing. Waa qashin and better to be removed before things even go down far worse than they are now. I can list many missteps he took in the last couple of years and if you ask him today about if he was wrong, he will still insist that he was right and nothing is wrong.. Just try and give him a call to ask. He is a total arrogant cow.. I don't seem to understand what you are defending about and for him other than the state's well being which is fu..ed more already by this moron..

Khadar, awoowe Faroole made many mistakes, which he should be blamed for. But he inherited the two major issues Puntland is facing today. The man is not a warlord, he was selected by his fellow tribesmen. Soon there will be a time when he is up for another selection. That is when people need to get rid of him if they are so passionate about removing him.
