Since this topic is hot now, I figured I should do a little SOL poll. Click on the icons to vote for your favorite candidate or see the result. Remember, you must be logged in first in order to take part. You can also speak your mind if you wish to post. This is a poll and an open thread as well. I will try to send an email (the ones who have an email) to the candidates about the result. The last day of voting is Monday, the 13th of September.

Tababarihii iyo Ciyaartoydii Soomaaliya uga qeybgashay ciyaarihii Olombikada adduunka oo goostay Talaado, August 31, 2004 Tababarihii ciyaartoyda ciyaaraha fudud Maxamed Faarax Cajab iyo Fartuun Abuukar Cumar oo magaca Qaranka Soomaaliyeed ku meteleysay ciyaarihii Olombikada Adduunka ee lagu qabtay dalka Greece ayaa ka goostay wafdigii ay la socdeen. Labadaasi xubnood ayaa la sheegay in ay u sii baqooleen dalal kale oo Yurub ah, inkastoo uu arrintaasi beeniyay madaxii wafdigaas Aadan Xaaji Yabarow Wiish oo sheegay in tababaruhu uu fasax weydiistay markii ciyaaruhu dhamaadeen, lana fasaxay, halka gabadha uu ku tilmaamay in ay daqiiqadihii ugu dambeeyay baskii soo qaadayay uu ka soo tegay. Goosashada ciyaartoyda iyo mas'uuliyiinta Isboortiga Soomaaliyeed ayaa iska noqday wax caadi ah iyo fursad lala fiirsado ka qeybgalka tartamada caalamiga ah, iyadoo beryahaan dambena ay jireen warar sheegaya in Guddiga Olombikada Soomaaliyeed (GOS) Xiriirro ka mid ah ay safarradda ceynkaas oo kale ah u isticmaalaan qaab ganacsi ah, iyagoo dad dibadaha ku geeya, isla markaana mararka qaarkood ku dara wafdiga Isboorti ee ciyaaraha caalami ah Soomaaliya uga qeybgelaya dad aanan ehel u ahayn Isboortiga. a ahan markii ugu horeysay ee ay goostaan ciyaartoy iyo mas'uuliyiin Soomaaliyeed oo dalalka dibadda u tegay ka qeybgalka ciyaaraha caalamiga ah, waxaana la xusuusan yahay in labo jeer oo hadda ka horeysay oo Soomaaliyana ay ka qeybgashay ciyaaraha Olombikada Adduunka ay labaduba baxsanayeen ciyaartoydii Soomaaliya uga qeybgashay tartamadaas, waana arrin fadeexad ku ah Isboortiga Soomaaliyeed.

Correction: Widh Widh is not a village.

Foxxy, iska warran inadeer. Good to see you too. Just browsing old topics. I usually use my famous "." for reviving old topics, but Libaax changed his mind this time just to hypnotise the young minds. The answer to my question? hmmm ...

What was the right word? sixir? indhasarcaad? mucjiso? Look deep into the above picture. Tell me what you see.

Originally posted by Saxardiid: Only one tribe ever claimed that position and you know whom they are no need for more explanation. Saxardiid, I think it was more than one tribe.

Originally posted by HornAfrique: the support of sub-clan I agree. This is amazing considering Galaydh just came into the picture not that long ago. He came in with an agenda, put it on the table, everybody listened and now you have the veteran warlords running for cover. Now, it is wait and see. Siyaasadani waa political -- Lakkad.

Horn, this is just ku tiri kuteen. Meeqaan maqlaynay Morgan baa halkaa soo socda iyo moorgan baa soo duulaya. I wouldn't put much weight into it.

^^ There goes the fabricated "milk " character again.

Originally posted by HornAfrique: Ooh is this why there's been some ice between Libaax and Jumatatu in other threads? because of this one. Horn, there is no serious ice between me and Jamatatu. I saw him break the rules of the website more than once. That is all saxib. The only difference between him and others who break the rules is that I am actually keeping an eye on him because I do recognize him from previous threads outside the politics section where he was insulting the staff for simply doing their job. Now that you don't get away with. Either way, it is nothing that serious. He just needs to calm down and respect others including the men and women who volunteer daily to give the nomads a good platform for clean discussions. That is all.

Sue, now you know that having rules and enforcing them ain't that bad for keeping the good name of Sue. Start campaigning for a moderator position again. As I remember, you were 4569 votes short of becoming one the last round.

Rainbow, there is no other choice. But remember these are just accusations and Somalis will always find something for anyone who is not their distant uncle. That is pretty much how it has come down to lately. I am honestly sickened by all these baseless accusations against a man who I think is more decent than 90% of the candidates in Doofaareey. It is sad.

This guy is a joke.

OFF TOPIC: I wonder who this "milk" character is. I am getting very suspicous again. Aaway odayaashii Baashi iyo Gediid oo wax analyze gareyn jiray. Mise AYOUB sheekh buu ahaa ninkii arimahan ku fiicnaa. Waryaa, Jamatatu, what is my hope inadeer? Wallee sidii inan yar oon qaan qaarin baad wax u qortay. Is yara deji oo iska ilaali inaad ku xad gudubtid forumka iyo dadka wax ku qoraba. Waana tallo wanaagsan baan u malaynayaa maandhow. Rahima, the latest word from the conference is that Galeydh is doing very well interms of garnering support for his bid and he is likely to be a tough challenge for the artificial incumbents (Caddow and Abdullahi Yusuf). Galeydh is said to be getting the backing of many delegetes including those from Puntland lately. Abdullahi Yusuf also has many loyal delegates and I wouldn't count him out. As for Caddow, I don't know anything about him and his politics but I know he is one of the well known candidates who is likely to be elected. The only problem is that Abdiqasim and Abdullahi Yusuf might leave the conference and that would practically end this whole process because of the consitituents they hold.

^^ come again? Saxib dhagayso, hadalka iyo muranka intaad iska dayso, respect the rules of the website. Don't use tribal names on the forum. That is not too much to ask for. Is it?

Milk and Jamatatu, please stop using tribal names on the forum. You are not allowed to use SOL as a platform to openly spread your qabiil garbage and hate for others.

To tell you the truth, by just evaluating their current administrations, Riyaale and Abdiqasim are not even close. Riyaale is succeeding in building his state and is moving forward, while Abdiqasim is doing absolutely nothing but corruption and creating a state of violent disorder.

Safi, welcome back. The piece is very inspirational and moving. I hope something good comes out of Nairobi.

^^ Jamatatu, I am afraid milk is not joking. I respect folks like Horn and Rahima who have always been consistent on their absolute rejection of this dictator. But here is a question for the nomads. After all is said and done ... where do we go from here? What if he is elected to be the president of the republic?

Nice try!. Milk!.

I don't like the title of this thread. Originally posted by Waryaa Dude: Galayr is more corrupt than Mobutu!!! Pretty powerful indictment, I have to admit. Galeydh is not one of the like-minded murderers hell-bent on shredding the already tattered peace in our country.

Originally posted by Suldaanka: Abdilaahi Yusuf seems cornered by a strong and organised Artha Faction. looooool. qosol badanaa. . Wallee Baashi iyo Gediidow, Suldaanka ayaa xikamadiiba ku dambaysay. Bahal kulul ayuu u hoos galiyay raggii meeshan ku doodayay.

Baashi, why go inland when we already talked about developing the Bajuni Islands? I know, I know ... you are reer Kismayo but the Islands aren't far off dee. Stay focused man. Don't change plans saxib. Nur, thanks for the info ... Nice to hear Somalis are picking up the pieces one by one ...
