I don't know but it looks like Abiy is honoring his word. Me thinks he will do so until he consolidates his power then he will be sending his own Gabres.

Abiy can easily give him a tiny kilil. Expect everything today.

Galbeedi, Speaking about sharing the pie, how does your average Farax or Xalimo benefit from that? I never understood why Somalis argue if their minister is not in the government or not. As far as I know there is one MJ minister in the federal government, I don't see how his presence there is helping MJs or Puntland? Same goes for everyone. The ministers might get fat but not your average guy. We are focusing on the wrong thing. We need an actual government that can be hold accountable. How does Awdal benefit from a vice-president position in Hargeisa? Or even where Dahir Riyaale was there? Even among Habro, did your average HJ benefited Siiraanyo's reign. Those around him did but certainly not your average person in Burco. Of course, government should reflect people that govern but we must not kid ourselves so as to think any minister from any given tribe truly represents the interests of his tribe. We need to be forward thinking and come up with different system.

Xaaji, Adinguna ma waxaad bilawday ku qabso ku qadimayside? Gaashaamo is the larger settlement of the Habro, but it is in Hawd , close to the Burco border, and Harta Sheikh is a village for trades to pass. Awbare is the largest district in all of Zone five except Jigjiga and Diridhaba. We will not accept the OG created 70 districts of their own where small wells of 100 people are made districts. Cabdi Illey Edadi meesha ay makhaayad ka furatay Edadii ee geedaka hoosyiisa ayaa degmo noqotay. This people has no shame. This Cagjar guy might talk Somalinimo, yet he is weak and corrupt. I am not buying the false blue flag he is carrying. I will never accuse Farmaajo of Qabyaalad . He might be weak but not tribal. This Cagjar guy is trying to fool us but we are awake. As they say, “ symbols are intended for the simple minded”. Abiy Ahmed appointment a lady from Caafar community as the Defense minister, Amhara lady as president and a Somali guy as the finance minister. This Facebook guy supposed to reform the system and bring Somalis together, yet he keep playing the same Illey card in different manner. He must disband or reform the old Illey Party rather than surround himself with his tribal henchmen. If he doesn’t change and share the pie with others and reform the system, he will be history. Every tribe will create their own Liyu police and clan militias if they keep their “ Qaadicu Dariiq “ mentality. Besides, Yaa Xaaji, you the Western Jeegaan is only interestted making few dollars from Wajaale and the trade. You do not care about othets.

Saaxiib, ishaad ka tuurtay! Abiy’s objective here is to make a muddle of the federal regional system of Ethiopia by encouraging every Tom, Dick and Harry out there, who has the minutest of grievances, to go ahead and setup their own federal state. For Somali Galbeed in particular, he will attempt to agitate Somali rival clans to pursue their own independent states that will come directly under his regime in Addis Ababa. Naturally, this will lead to conflict within communities and not to mention— against other communities, and will lead to chaos, mistrust and instability...Instability, he thinks(sic) he can use to his advantage and help prolong his hold on power long enough to build sufficient wealth and power for him to subjugate the whole country and rule like one of the kings of yesteryears.
