Xiligan la joogo ayaa qaar badani diinta uga bixi doonaan nacaybka Somaliland. Kuwa habeen iyo maalin xumaantayadda maleegaya badhaadhahayaga Neceb bal ka warama? 24/7 dad muslim ah ayey xumaan la raadinayaan!

Every President's trip to foreign country is based on two issues: Business, Security (sometimes travels). Both of these issues were discussed in the President' visit. Here is the President's debriefing to the Somaliland Diaspora community in UAE. He covers most of the things that were discussed, things achieved and things that will be realised soon.

If Somalia can fast track the one man one vote and have decent parliament instead of the one appointed by elders, warlors, friends etc Qatar has a key role that can be easily filled by Somalia - food Qatar is surviving by Turkey and Iran for now, but Somalia can provide that with closed eyes, no sweat. They are starting in Sudan, but this could be perfect time. Expect increased security risk from UAE Saudis. Somalia can reduce security risk by being suplier of food to the Gulf. There is nothing to make one think twice than if you are the bread provider. Turkey can help with modern industrial scale farms.

I think the case is so deep behind the scenes no pblic statements, but few trips between Saudi and Ethiopia happened couple of weeks into the arrest. Even though most of his money is from Sweden, Libya and Ethiopia, the guy is involved in few major things: In Ethiopia has enemies in Oromo/Amhara same as regime. Some third world typical idiot Ethiopian opposition diaspora actually celebrated. They are convinced that his mother is Tigray. Amazing. Clinton foundation had made about 10 million from him - was on behalf of Ethiopia mostly Saudi Star for food security could have been strictly with the deposed prince that making him part of the Royals scuffle Egypt could have asked the Saudis to hold him, since pressuring the Ethiopian government It may even have something to do with Ghelleh and UAE many things.
