Very sad to see most of us reduced to choosing "masters". Some are anti-Tigray yet choose to serve Oromo Amxara interests with the same way they blamed Illey and others. Some are anti-Uganda and Kenya yet are very happy to dance for Abiy and Isayas Some are anti-Turkish yet will dance in Asmara the home of Saudis and UAE in Horn of Africa. Why not first determine what is in the best interest of the Somali people? Who can best help in achieving that interest? Turkish would be choice no.1 since they respect the Somali autonomy in all affairs, local culture, language, future plans and will. The rest consider the Somali as to be told only. The Turish have the moral standing to ask what you want to do and help you or suggest this is better than that and influence you by real plan and action.

Of course we are. Suldaanka, The Northern Unionists have no choice but to take the power from corrupt southerns who are happy with the status quo. For them " Caadi Waaye" The problem is we have seen this film before in 2011 almost eight years ago. Musaveni told Farmaajo in 2011 that "without our tanks you are no body" , then he called the two Shariifs and told Farmaajo to leave the seat. Our president found himself in the same situation again. Even if you give these people a second chance and opportunity to correct the last blunder they will never learn. Here , Farmaajo is back in 2017. What did he prepare to face Muaveni again within two years of taking power. Halkii uu kaga tagay sideed sanadood ka hor ayuu ugu yimid isagii oo jooga waxna diyaar u hayn. How many times we told you that a government is judged by how it moves the first hundred days. When he was elected in 2017, he told them that he want Somalis tp protect him, and the Ugandans told him, " Hey there are no Somalis to protect you, here , sign this paper, we are not responsible if some thing happens". The poor fellow was scared and chose the Ugandan to continue doing his job. . This statement from the Ugandan dictator is a well calculated shot backed by others like the British and even the UN. Musaveni couldn't build four lane highway in Uganda after 30 years of power. I do believe that most Africans dictators like in west Africa and other places, the army usually moves in and removes the long serving rulers with a coup. For Musaveni , the Somali cash cow keeps soldiers and officers busy by making money. The UN has its own private airport, huge kilometer wide container warehouses and their own lane at the airport queue. The Ugandan people are relatively educated and patient people. In my conversation with some Kampala residents, they told me that if Musveni doesn't leave this time around the country might go to civil war again. Yet, even if civil war breaks in Uganda, their hope is that nations go to civil war, people die and then things becomes normal. Someone will become a leader and make the decisions. No one in the world have this low intensity conflict that never goes away except Somalia. As a supporter of Farmaajo, I have been quite for the last few days about what took place in Garoowe. While the peaceful transfer of power in Puntland is celebrated, Farmaajo forgot to use that platform to set his agenda and take a route different than the old failed politicians and old men like Faroole who never goes away. Faroole was taking credit of the creation of the useless Upper House that has no reason to exist in Somalia. Farmaajo should have set his agenda and tell those who were there and the Somali people in general how he wanted to move and implement his agenda for the next few years. He should have known that in this kind of gathering, where every washed up politician want the microphone and talks the usual gibberish, his role should be different than anyone. He was failed by those who run his office and those who advice him. . He just went there as usual without any plan and talked just like those who were seeking some exposure. In fact, it was Mr. Saciid Deni, a novice politician who took the limelight and acted like a leader and set his agenda by talking his future plans at the inauguration. The most difficult issue that Farmaajo would face is that how to reconcile the presence of these foreign armies from Ethiopia, Kenya, Eritrea and Uganda to co-exist within Somalia, while knowing that each one of them has his own national interest. Besides, C/laahi Yusuf tried to clear the land with the Ethiopian army. Unlike Farmaajo he had his own Somali soldiers lifting the heavy lift, yet when he tried to convince the Ethiopians to finish the job and implement his agenda , they refused and started to weaken him using other Somali actors. He was stronger before he came to Mogadishu, but the day he took over the real presidency, they sabotaged him until they forced him out. My conclusion is Musveni want to stay here until 2025, and will do what ever it takes to stop Farmaajo and company for interfering with his plan. So, what plan Mr. Farmaajo has to kick out t these mercenaries?.

Little of you wrote made any sense. If I understand you right, you are saying Villa Somalia is not in position to talk to Hargeysa and some international actors share that view. That begs the question what's stopping Hargeisa from gaining recognition considering Villa Somalia's ineffectiveness and IC willingness to engage with Hargeisa?

Replace, replace replace, destroy destroy, is that all we know, that comes from Somali brain, Cagjar is highly qualified and must be given a chance
