    The Hassan Khayre led government is failing both on domestic security and international policy. Today , the sixth bombing as many day has rocked Mogadishu with deadly fatalities. Despite the " peace security brigade" formed to pacify the capital and intercept the bomb laden cars, nothing seem to be working. Mogadishu is already the most fortified city in the world with blocked streets and checkpoints. Just like the colonial powers of the last century the government and their connected NGO's live in these fortified neighborhoods while the native populations resides outside these zones . Leaving the native population outside had allowed Al-shabaab to have free hand plot their deadly attacks in a way that impacts the nation. Would be Somali soldiers were trained by many nations for the last six years. Americans, European union soldiers, Italians , and African countries were some of the nations training these soldiers. Turkey , the most important partner of rebuilding Somalia, has been training professional Somali soldiers for more than a year and was graduating hundreds of soldiers. Yey, no one can travel between Mogadishu and Jowhar. Is these soldiers become ghost soldiers after graduation? , or they just disappear when they no longer able receive their salary. I always believed that a small but effective and well paid professional soldiers are the answers for the security issues. It seems that there is no shortage of soldiers but what is missing is the management and deployment of the soldiers . As the Farmaajo speech has shown , he delegated most of these tasks to the generals and the defense department. Yet, the blame should go to those who manage these generals and the prime minister himself. We have enough of the false bosting and promises of prime minister Khayre. He had enough time to pacify the capital or make his ministers accountable. Farmaajo must force Khayre to either shuffle the cabinet or ask him to resign. The area that need a change are mostly foreign policy department, internal ministry, defense ministry and national security. I would not ask him to change the army commanders and leadership which needs continuity . We do need to critically look the foreign policy of Somalia. Things are happening without critical consultation and deep debate within the leadership. Farmaajo went to Eritrea and helped them get rid of the sanctions against Eritrea without no tangible exchange. Before the president flies to any country , he must have his foreign policy group ahead of him and digest everything before hand. He seems to be stumbling to surprises prepared by other nations. If others present a blue print that t is too good to be true , it is the duty of the foreign ministry to read the fine print and analyse the future consequences. Abiy Ahmed looked the cards Farmaajo was carrying and took those who were useful for him and is now using now one by one. Without notice , Abiy took him to Kenya un prepared and got nothing from Kenya. When Dr. Bayleh took the Kenyans to international court, the Kenyan president came to Mogadishu to resolve the issue. As Trump had shown with the Syrian Golan Height issue, the international rule and law that guided the world since the second world war is disappearing. As Somalia passes one of our weakest time in history, predator nations could take advantage and annex some of the best and fertile land in Somalia especially the Jubba area. When you have landlocked nations like Uganda, Ethiopia, and Burundi debating Somali maritime territory and rules, we must all worry. They are probably shocked that how a failed state and dysfunctional government and people could own this prime real estate and ocean in the horn of Africa. In order to avoid theft of maritime resource and even the annexation of Somali proper, Farmaajo must quicken the withdrawal of foreign forces from somalia. It will diminish the future theft and domination by others. Those and many others reasons must be a case to fire and replace the foreign minister and his team. If he is overruled and Farmaajo is carrying his foreign policy in a whimp , then there is no hope of shuffling or changing things. I have even Seen the prime minister fly to Kenya without the foreign minister and do his personal business with Kenyan leadership. Waxaanu nahay dameer malab sida oo aan ogayn waxa uu sido. We are carrying a gold yet we do not know the value in our back. As I stated in these pages, the defense minister is missing in action. No one knows him, and no one has seen him speak or address the nation on the issue of soldiers and the missing salary. Same thing goes with the home affairs ministry. I have never seen him travel to the hotspots of the country. It was the first time today I saw him visit central Somalia. Just like the defense minister, the national security minister is an unknown hotel manager who usually discusses checkpoints or couple of soldiers who abandoned a check point.In other words , he acts like a police officer in Xamar Weyne. Furthermore, the national intelligence man is money carrying election hacker who thinks he can buy anyone just like the presidential elections. He spends most of his days to bribe warlords in the media and unemployed social media personalities to increase the popularity of the government. While politics is important in any system, it must end somewhere and the real work of nation building, performing your duty and regular work is an everyday thing. These tasks need honesty, dedication and commitment. The Southern ways of shortcutting things or being shrewd doesn't build long term and stable system. These and many other shortcomings can't be allowed to continue. Farmaajo is already in big hole and the chances to come out are very small, yet one must always try and dig himself out. To keep doing the same thing and not changing the course would be digging deeper. There are few options. Fire the prime minister and appoint a new one. Looking the choices Khayre made in his cabinet it is difficult to keep going the same bath. Having incompetent members of cabinet had allowed the prime minister to keep all decision making in his office and increase his workload. Weak members of the cabinet usually draw their salaries and try not ruffle any feathers. That is why the defense minister is not comfortable coming out to the media and make the case.Ministers are not allowed to make decisions and push the issues with confidence. The 66 men cabinet that is assembled are nothing but liaison officers to help them inside the parliament to defeat motions. Other than few members of the cabinet most of them had failed or sidelined by khayre. Furthermore, Khayre had failed to build a sustainable relationship with the Mogadishu community. As a local son , he should had the courage to confront the Mogadishu instability without fear and repercussions. He no longer have the confidence of the locals and as a bad police could no longer arrest or confront the anti peace elements. These and many other reasons should force Farmaajo to change course and get a new government for the remaining years. Renewing the mandate and getting a new government is one of the ways to energize the system. Make an overarching cabinet shuffle. Rather than micromanage everything, the prime minister must appoint known heavy weights to the cabinet and allow them to shine. Mr. Khayre must not expect his ministers to be school children that should be either muzzled or lectured. The last men who asked few normal questions---Yusuf Garaad and Juxa--were fired without cause. In fact, since Yusuf Garaad was fired the foreign policy of the country was going down the drain.Mr. Garaad had managed the gulf Arabs and their blockade saga very well, he nurtured the Turkish bond and release hundreds of Somalis from foreign jails. He must change at least those who are involved in defense, interior, security and intelligence. In fact, it could be argued these three, the interior, defense and intelligence were appointed to fill their tribal slots without qualifications. If anyone of those options are impossible then you must expect to make your bed in that hole. If you do not change the course, you could become the worst president since Carta government. Do not listen to the unemployed social media kids and others who would never tell you the truth. Somalia is in the crossroads and change of course is a must.

    Farmaajo iyo Kheyre oo qorsheynaya inay xaalad deg deg ah geliyaan Muqdisho Madaxweynaha Soomaaliya Maxamed Cabdullaahi Farmaajo iyo ra’iisul wasaare Xasan Cali Kheyre ayaa mar kale xalay kulan ka yeeshay ammaanka faraha ka baxay ee magaalada Muqdisho, oo maalmihii dhowaa ay qaraxyada caadi ka noqdeen. Kulanka ayaa looga hadlay sida wax looga beddeli karo xaaladda magaalada Muqdisho, waxaana waxyaabaha yaabka leh ee la isku soo qaday ka mid ah in magaalada la geliyo xaalad deg deg ah muddo 3 bilood ah, sida ay saraakiil ka tirsan Villa Somalia u xaqiijiyeen Caasimada Online. Tallaabadan ayaa u ogolaaneyso dowladda in ciidamo badan kusoo daabusho magaalada, la xiro dhammaan waddooyinka magaalada, gur-guri loo galo, islamarkaana ugu yaraamn la hakiyo qaraxyada joogtada ah ee magaalada. Qorshahan ayaa la sheegay in madaxweynaha iyo ra’iisul wasaaraha ay mabda’ ahaan isku raaceen hase yeeshee waxaan weli la hayn qaabkii loo fulin lahaa. Waxaa sidoo kale laga cabsi qabaa in baarlamanku ansixinayaan iyo in kale marka madaxweynuhu ku dhowaaqo, maadaama dastuurka dhigayo inay qasab tahay in baarlamanku ansixiyo. Madaxweynaha iyo ra’iisul wasaaraha ayaa lagu warramayaa in ka cabsi qabaan in qorshahan aysan xildhibaanada baarlamanka ogolaan doonin, taasi oo darteed aan weli qorshahan loogu dhowaaqin. Waxaa sidoo kale jirta in beesha caalamka aysan ogolaan doonin qorshahan, taasi oo mar kale isku dhac ka dhex abuuri karta madaxda dowladda iyo beesha caalamka, oo horey ugu kala tagay cayrintii wakiilkii QM ee Soomaaliya, Nicholas Haysom. Madaxda dowladda ayaa la rumeysan yahay ina taageero hoose u raadi doonaan qorshahan ka hor inta aysan ku dhowaaqin, ayada oo laga yaabo inay ka tanaasulaan haddii aysan taageero ku filan u helin. Xigasho _________________ Waa soo dhaweynayaa. Ha lagu soo rogo Muqdisho state of emergency. Kuwa maanta dacaayadeynaayo amaandarrada - ka mid yihiin Mahad Salaad iyo C/raxmaan C/shakuur - iyagaa isla beri qeylin doono, kana soo horjeesan doono. Maantana iyagaa ugu qeylo badan.

    Waa runtaa. Soomaaliya, gaar ahaan Muqdisho, cadow badan ayee leedahay, qaarkood Soomaali nala sheeganaayo laakiin niyadda ka baqtiyey, shisheeyana u adeego. Dad qaar waxee ku maal heleen qaska iyo qaxa, marka wey adagtahay inay maamul wanaagsan rabaan haddaan loo xusul duuban meel la iska saarin. Barbaarta kaliya ma'aha waxa wax dilo, qof walba wax garanaayo og taas Yuusuf Garaad just wrote this: Yuusuf Garaad: “Waxaan ogahay in Shabaab kaliya aysan Xamar dad ku dilin Wasiirkii hore ee arimaha dibadda Soomaaliya Yuusuf Garaad Cumar ayaa ka hadlay xaaladaha amaanka ee magaalada Muqdisho iyo dadka ka dambeeya qaraxyadii ugu dambeeyay ee ka dhacay magaalada Muqdisho. Yuuruf Garaad Cumar qoraal uu soo dhigay bartiisa Facebook wuxuu kaga hadlay xaaladaha amaan ee magaalada Muqdisho, waxaana uu ku yiri qoraalkiisa:- Qaraxii iigu horreeyay oo ka dhacay meel aan joogo waxay ahayd 2013. Weerarkaas waxaa soo qaaday saddex wiil oo labana ay isqarxisay midna lagala hormaray oo la dilay isaga oo gashan jaakad qarax ku rakiban yahay. Isla markiiba waxaa tuhun la geliyay cidda ka dambeysa weerarka. Xataa shisheeya ayaa ka qeyb qaatay far ku fiiqidda jiho aan ahayn Shabaab. Ilaa markaas waxaan arkayay marka uu qarax dhaco dadka qaar keena tuhun ah in weerarku Shabaab ahayn ee ay ka dambeeyaan dhinacyo kale. Ma ogi xaqiiqadeeda. Mid ayaanse ogahay. Shabaab keliyihi Muqdisho dadka kuma dilo. Baaritaan cilmi ku saleysan ayaa loo baahan yahay in weerar kasta lagu sameeyo waxna laga barto. Xuuraansi ka sokow, Maaddooyinka laga sameeyay qaraxa iyo tabta loo sameeyay waxay wax ka sheegaan cidda sameysay. Xataa waxaa laga ogaan karaa qofka qaraxa sameeyay cidda tababbartay. Goobta la beegsaday, goorta iyo xeesha weerarka iyagana khubaro akhrin taqaan ayaa jirta. Diiwaanka warbixinnada weerarrada Shabaab haddii uu jirana wax baa lagala dhex bixi karaa. Baaritaan iyo dabaggal noocaas ah ama ka sarreeya maaddaama aanan arag cid natiijadiisa ila wadaagta, anigu waxaan weerarrada u sameystay miisaan fudud. Waxaan hubiyaa in weerarka uu fuliyay ama uu qeyb ka yahay qof is qarxiyay. Haddii ay jawaabtu haa tahay, Shabaab oo keliya ayaa haysta dad isu qarxiya, adeegsadana. Xigasho

    @galbeedi A good man, probably for his family, but not as a leader. What we know of Cheeseman so far is all negative. For start, he is a complete fraud. His so called nationalist credentials are no where to be found when the going getting tough. As the old Somali saying goes, you will only learn the true character of a man if you spent time traveling with him, or fought alongside him in wartime, or you had to rely on him to use his wordsmith to defuse a tense situation bringing peace and brotherly between foes and friends. 2 years of Cheeseman leadership, the only thing we have learned so far are, 1. He hides when the going gets tough - exactly when a real man is supposed to shine and make his mark. 2. He is obedient servant that never says no to anything. 3. He is very low IQ person that cannot objectively or subjectively communicate a point clearly 4. There is more reason to think that he is a boogeyman used by CIA or other foreign powers to do their bidding without any regards to the interest of the people he is leading. Case in Point, why he is unable to relinguish his USA passport and represent his country at the UN.

    Qof fahmi karaaba ma jiro wuxuu ka hadlayo.! Ma af hayeenbaa, mise ra'yigiisuu hadlayaa marka ugu horaysa? Yuu soo fariisinayaa meesha? Maxay tahay labada dawladood oo 60kii jirtay oo uu ka hadlayo? Tabashada? Tabashada marka la fasiro waa cataw ama calaacal waxaana lagu daweeyaa garaabid. Garaabidana waxaa bixiya dadkii wax dhexmareen oo kaliya. Haday ula jeedaan labo dawladood baan nahaye hanaloo garaabo waa ajadde siyaasadeed oo aad u daciifa, sababtoo ah dawladihii dhismay burburkii ka dib kama garaabi karaan waxaysan shaqo ku lahayn iyo dagaal sokeeye soo dhex maray. Waxaan filayaa khudbadda farmaajo inay aad u koobnayd macnaheeduna ahaa umadda waa walaalo, dalkuna waa mid taas haloo wada hadlo, meelna xanaf iyo xumaan kagama jirto. Snm kii marqaama hadii saxaafaddu ag fariisato waxaan la fahmi karin yuu la imaan waana mushkiladda jaadka laga dhaxlo.
