Very nice indeed. but Beledweyn gets my vote as the most spectacular city, with the river cutting through through, Hargeysa would've been a stunner if the dry river had water.

I think Siilaanyo mixed up the phone numbers, he wanted to invite Turkey's leader but instead phoned the mayor of sleepy, ship building town of Turku.

That is one option we can seal with the Turks, do you know only about 18% of Somalia's fertile agriculture land is farmed, we have two rivers and we import almost every kind of food from abroad, so instead of the land just sitting there where no one is farming, why can't you lease it to the Gulf states and the Turks for 20, 25, or 30 years so they can bring their much needed expertise & market, feed the nation and bring much needed hard currency, everyone is a winner. but we Somalis are a paranoid nation and can not see what is good us.

I am afraid this will change nothing, you guys are talking about only $100m, but American firms looted a whole country (Iraq) and still doing so, The oil of that country, its heritage of artifacts and hard currency was systematically looted in 2003 and the people who ordered that looting are still around and are receiving good pensions. a big chunk of the American economy is based on this type of daylight robberies.

Mr Riyole go and ask the Ethios of what they think about us, go and ask the jews about what they thinks about the Palestinians. The Greeks are the staunch enemy of the Turks historically, so don't expect them to paint rosy picture about them. Come back to the topic, here is an up coming power house trying to help you recover from your mis-fortunes, what would you do? kick them out or grab the opportunity and say thank you. Yes the Turks have their interest at heart, but hey,, tell me a nation who hasn't got their interest at heart.. but the logical conclusion should be "guard my interest and I will guard yours" that is how the EU exists, that is how NATO and NAFTA exists and we should do the same, Mutual interest. look how Ethiopia, Sudan, Kenya and many countries are leasing large areas of fertile land to the Gulf states which is bringing huge amount of income to these african countries and creating jobs, we should adopt these models when the country is stable enough to generate hard currency source.

Somalis are the least grateful people on earth. if you ignore them like the arabs did, they will complain, if you give them too much attention like the Turks, they will complain, that is why the British intelligence in 1960 described the somali mentality as "volatile, un-predictable, and opportunistic".. I don't like Hassan Sheikh and his crew, but I whole heartedly support the Turks and what they are doing in my country.

Thanks for the post. interesting read. 21 gun salute for this lioness.

I know he even will get 2 garaad from Buhoodle. I believe some segments of the garaad clan would reject Abdisamad still i think Abdisamad can pull it off i also money will play a role in this. These Garaads are whole heartedly with PL, but for them to dis-mental and disband what is left of Ali Khaliif's failed khaatumo project they don't want to see the status-quo, an Abdiwali or Awaare win will definitely justify mass defection to PL.

Xaaji Sool MPs are like the swing states of US elections, they always make presidents of Puntland, this time they are angry and feel betrayed, although A.samad is in Taleex and trying to twist arms, but I don't think a wise khaatumite MP will vote for Farole this time.

Maya xajiga ma aha qolyaha Gabiley, Xaajigu waa qolyihii Xaqsoor ee ciidda la cunsiiyay ee shabaabka wada noqday;) Faroole seedi fiican buu nimanka u ahaa weyna ku naalloodeen, khaatumo MPs might not be duped this time like 2009.

This woman represents an endangered species, In my life time I never heard a Somali resigning to pre-empt corroption. Well done YUSUR. Allah yaxayiik

The man shares my vision for Somalia Xiin look beyond that vision, yes Faroole is a big hitter when it comes to his no nonsense policy with Xamar, but beyond that you have a trail of bad economy, whole regions lost to SL, al-shabab infiltration in Galgala area. another 5 years of Faroole will be a repeat of disasters and pain.

But it also shows that he was genuine in his desire to see greater and united Somalia. .. some analysts believe the opposite, the whole point of the war was to shrink this giant army which put Siyaad Barre such un-ease since this was at the peak era of african coups, but what ever the intentions, this was un necessary and drained the young republic men and resource, we were alone fighting this war except Iraq who stood by us heroically, but the other side had the backing of the two great powers, the Warsaw block, even many arab nations such as Libya, South Yemen, and the PLO backed the Ethios. The WSLF guerrillas were doing great job by giving the Ethios a bloody nose and Siyad Barre should've continued supporting them until they captured the whole ****** region.

Gen Abdisamad will bring the 17 Garaad clan MPS , although we must admit there is allot of opposition to faroole. Where is the detoore so that he can tell us about General Siciid Samtar is he favored by the Bosaaso communities. There is a god fearing Sheikh also running i have seen he also ran for Somalia presidency is he liked, and does he have the money to bribe the MPS. i mean Sheikhs have a big wallet. By the way are all the candidates from the ssdf families no one from Goldogob maakhir or the garaad clan is running? This seems to be a two horse race, Farole against Gaas, but I heard Omar Sharmake could crash the party at later stage and throw his hat in, that will make it a thrilling election to watch, but don't rule out the ex-Golis CEO Ali Haji (pictured below), as we know Golis is the wealthiest company in PL and this guy has alot of reserve cash, maybe he has less chance when it comes to the Geo-politics in the region since he is an Islamist, but this guy could give uncle Finger and Odey Gaas a run for their money.

NO way.
