This people have been given opportunity after opportunity since 1991. Every time they failed. This primitive people cannot run a modern state. In 1991, they abandoned Dir Dhaba and went to small town called Godney, then they created a quagmire, and finally, Illey shows up and followed by this new Geeljire from Xalane. This are fake Somali, but this time the damage they leave behind will be un repairable. Definitely gather Dir will have a lot of options.

I can't ima6how ruthless and arrogant this people are. Geeljirahan waxba yaan laguna darsan. Now I know since when Illey was deposed, Waxaad moodaysay in uu buufis ku dhacay. They probably could not live without government handouts and looting. This fool from Xalane should know that he is not elected to anything. He was selected to subdue the Liyu criminal gangs and lead communal harmony, yet he want for the Kill. Muxuu yidhi, Isma doorin Daalikaan diary iyo daarta kii galay.

Colonel Mukhtar was the notorious Cabdi Illey lieutenant of Cabdi Illey was in charge of Bayaxow prison camp where people were tortured. Now he is appointed as the intelligence chief. These people should have vocational the landscape after their oppressive twins were thrown out. For the first time, I am agreeing with Ducale that the OG community should stand down and give up or they will destroy Somali Galbeed. In 2011, I remember meting in Hotel Ray's in Borama, a former agricultural director who was doing some farming in Lafaciise. He told me that about his issues with Illey and his security people harassing his farm and said,, Dadkani haddaan la iska qaban, sidii ay Somalia u dumiyeen ayey halkana u dumin. I thought he was harsh but now I understand.

Barely a week has passed since Mutafe Cagjar was selected as the new president of the Somali state in Ethiopia. As soon as he was proclaimed, he did few symbolic moves to attract the Somali people both inside and outside Ethiopia. He reintroduced the old flag with blue star in the corner and named the Somali region, " The Somali State" joust like the Amhara, Oromo and Tigray states. These moves had given him a good review among Somalis. We all thought that since the Somali region had suffered through the harsh and uniquely tribal rules of the last 11 years, we might finally get a Somali centered leader and government. Yet, as usual, Somali leaders never miss an opportunity to fail their people and always appeal to their tribal and clannish instincts. The Ogaden community and their leaders are committed a lot of crimes against their own clan members and other Somalis for the last ten years in Somali Galbeed. Illey was by himself in the early years before 2012, but for the last six years, 75% of the ONLF commanders had joined him and became members of his security. Others had joined from the diaspora and got became important members of the system and rode the gravy train until it.s end. This man which was brought to save his community and revive their bad image among the Somalis went rogue and followed his typical Geeljire culture of impunity to crown his illiterate clansmen just like before. Today he appointed nine people in different positions from police chief to intelligence cheif. 90% of those he appointed are all from one single clan called Absame. He is following the same book his warlord cousin Ahmed Madoobe uses in Jubbland. Among those nine security and palace minister , there is no one single from the noble Dir community. This is the typical tribal politics of Somalia, and it is called " Shock Test" to try who will accept this or who will fight. Well, Geeljire Mustafe, we will not be taking this while we are sitting down and you will get our answer soon. I urge the Dir community to some critical moves to teach a lesson this new Geeljire from Xalane compound, 1- Announce a Shir among the community and set up a parallel government 2- Make Diri Dhaba the new capital of that government or set up in Shiniile or Awbare , later being the largest Somali district in Somali galbeed in terms of population 3-Set up your own security and police and recruit from those regions. 4-Blockade Jigjiga and other area controlled by the Ogaden community and their allies. Most of the trade routes go through our communities which has Somalialnd borders and Djibouti.. 5- Jigjiga is a mixed city . No clan can own, but our land surrounds Jigjiga in the east south and north. Without our trade the greedy Geeljire will suffer since he is not known to create life, agriculture or stable civilization. They mostly live off of government coffers and will surfer more than others. 6- You must disband both the executive counsel and the governing party filled by the same cronies of Illey and company. Everyone knows that when people talk about Somali Galbeed, the main centers of production, agriculture , urban and civilization was always the land east of Jigjiga to Diri Dhaba to Djibouti border and Wajaale. Let the greedy and arogant Geeljire take his hinterlands and rule it. They tried in 1992 when they took the capital from Diri Dhaba to Godey. After four years of suffering and hardship Cabdi Majiid brought the capital to Jigjiga. Illey has transferred to Oromo more than 104 disputed villages in ten years. The strtegy was to diminish the Somali territories inhabited by others who might challenge them politically. We know for fact that Awbare has more people than combined population of Godey, Dhagaxmodobbe, Qabribayax and other districts. Illey and his community not only participated immensely for the oppression of the Somali people, but had fought hard to keep the TPLF system until to it's end just three weeks ago.Imagine if the TPLF had found a new Tigray reformer who points out their crimes and rides the bandwagon of change. People would have said , " hey guys, you had 27 years to right the ship, now is not your time, you must retire". Yet, another Ogaden man, who was sipping latte in Xalane compound, where African and foreign mercenaries cash on the Somali problems, came ridding with white night proclaiming to be the new savior. His only fame was that Cabdi Illey killed his brother and he wrote few articles criticizing the Illey leadership. Folks, that is not enough to fix the huge problems created by the TPLF and the Ogaden community in general and Illey and his security apparatus in general. Now we know that he was corresponding with so called Dulmi diid groups who were acting on his behalf while hiding behind the curtain . I knew early that the Dulmidiid were front for someone other than themselves. We know that the 30,000 or so Liyu who are nothing but tribal gangs who rooming the land to cause trouble. I call them illegal gangs created to serve only for the interest of TPLF and their tribe. As soon as Illey left for Addis, they abandoned their positions and went to their rural homes and towns in Dhagxbuur and beyond. You can't find one single LIyu in Diri Dhaba, Awbare, Shiniile, Dambal and even east , north and south of Jigjiga. Folks, I am writing on I phone , but I can assure you that we will get this fool @Abtigiiswho is trying to set up another tribal enclave after what his clansmen had done to all Somalis.

It is really strange. The prime minister who managed the oppressive system is free wheeling around the globe including a visit to Zimbabwe to meet the old butcher Mengistu. Non of the TPLF commanders of the army and the intelligence are charged with any crime , yet a Somali working for them is now the only one arrested. This Mustafe Abtigus guy is happy with this. If Illey is guilty then bring him and try him among Somalis. Not one single Oromo commander or culprit is arrested . Lema Magrasa whose police committed crimes is free without no cloud. This just to humiliate Somalis. The only Kilil leaders ever arrested were always Somalis.

Didn’t I said Sanaag will fall before Sool months ago?. This Somali idea of “ Qabyaalada Ha La Dhaafo AMA ha la Aaso habeenkiina hala soo Baxo ma shaqaynayso. finally at the end , every tribe want a piece of the pie donated by the white man and the rich but foolish Arabs. One cannot allow his schiool drop out friend to build a high rise and drive landcruser while he is getting by.

I am busy , and I do not have access to my laptop these days. I have to write on this thing called I phone This whole project of Somaliland was started by bogus tribal grievances. An Ethiopian dictator trying to bring back the war out of Ethiopia and inside the Somali Republic took advantage . Verily that project had transformed to secession due to the long unending of the Mogadishu political saga which has both tribal and regional geopolitics issue. Some us already knew that tribal projects for the tribe and by the tribe would never became a viable institution unless serious inclusive and modern reforms are coupled. It is beyond belief for some like OOdweyne and Xaaji to play ignorant on these issues. Their useless answers of " Reer Hebel Mujaahidiin bay Ahaayeen, ama waa Duriyada oo waxay u dhimanayaan hawsha reerka" will not cut it. What ever is build on lies and pure tribal loyalty will crumble when the tribal chain breaks up .Just look at Cabdi Illey, his people are lucky that they are not hanged in flag pols because of their crimes. You and your ilk had minimized or out right ignored the looting of public purses, land grabbing of public lands and open day light patronage of government posts without shame. In today's interactive world, where the Somali Geeljire can access the internet and the news to see the extend of your misdeeds, it is easy to create an insurgency or another tribal project to stop those who are getting rich. Government jobs that suppose to go to the most qualified had been transformed by the successive Jeegaan rules as excessive appointed positions. Mere directors or government agency accountants which suppose to be not political positions are appointed by the tribal chief. Over 300 posts are appointed by the jeegaan 70% of them goes to them. Despite its huge and disorganized style of big city, everyone in Hargeisa knows who got which job or who was promoted by the tribe. It is easy to find. The Sanaag thing would go from bad to worse because of the arrogance of the Jeegaan and the water carriers like OOdweyne who want to sing " Cumbayaa". I see some of the danged kids using the " Alcohol" card to denigrate Colonel Caare , but that label will not stop him. Just liker most of former and current Somaliland leaders, he could get his white " Khamiis" lead the prayer in the first line, repent and call himself a repentant leader of the Habro. Siilaanyo was a well known drinker before he became a good practicing Sheikh and attended prayers in Hargeisa mosques. In the late nineties, Cigaal came to Borama and went for the Friday prayers in the main mosque where the local "Sheikhul Beled" Sheikh A. Cali Jawhar told him to lead the faithful. Later When people inquired the move of making Cigaal the Imam to lead the prayer, the Sheikh rightfully said, " Waa Amiirkii Ummada Xaq ayuu u Leeyahay in uu Salaada Hogaamiyo". So, since the good colonel became a leader now, it should be easy to kick outwhar ever vice he had just like your former leaders. Besides, didn't you guys said that those who fought the war for the tribe to be good " MUjaahiduun" without any sins that would go directly to Jannah. Mujaahidka cayda ka daaya. Folks, the chickens are coming home to roast . Stop the chest bumping and resolve the issue without insulting the new leader.

The end of an era. One of the last American statesmen in the Senate. Vladmir Putin was lucky John Mcain never became a president.

We know for fact that a dozen or so people in Somaliland both politicians, Ulema and Artists that was send to Dubai and other places for medical travel financed by the government. Among to notables: Boobe Yusuf Ducaale Sheikh Adan Siiro Cabduraxman Tolwaa and many others were among them. itvis really absurd for Xasji to say the Graraad community should pay. By the way this man was the one who handed Laadcaanood to Somaliland and created the current problems in that region, who knows, he could be paying the mess he created in different way. Allah ha Cafiyo

Waxa jira wax aad jeceshahay oo Shar kuugi Jiro, Iyo wax aad neceb tahay oo Khayr ku Jiro. i was one of those who were wishing AHMED Shide or others from the other side of the coin. First, I felt like “ Marna Rasaaq , Marna Rashiid , inta kale ma rootibaa”. Having said that, listening and reading the initial remarks of the new president, it looks like we got a decent, civilized, educated and open minded Somali Nomad reflecting the new generation of forward looking Somalis of our time. He sounded more like some of the measured and logical guys of Sol like Che and others. His first pronouncements if letting Somalis speak and criticized is a huge step forward for most Somalis who are muzzled. Can you imagine the audacity of today’s Somali leaders from Djibouti to Kismaayo who had denied Somalis the right to vote, to earn a living , and even to room the land while poor, had decided to deny that poor nomad to even speak his mind. Our language has been written just over 40 years ago, and the only freedom we enjoy in the land of nomads is to talk and talk for bad or worse. As they say, the Somali misery loves a company to talk, gossip and inform. ” Waar ninka ma inta aad gaajo ku riday, oo aad u diiday in uu wax doorto isna la doorto ayaad haddana afka qabatay “ if President Mustafe does these simple things he will achieve great things. Personally, I have a lot of issues to discuss with this new president including dismantling the many things that favour certain people, but now is not the time. it looks like we got one of our own guy who understands the future of the Somali people and that Somali Galbred which has always been one of the indisputable Somali territories that many of our fathers and uncles paid a dear price to recover from the colonies. cogratulations for common sense.

The Ciise community has left Diri Dhaba long ago. Everyone is looking or connected to Djibouti you can chew Qar without working and the bad culture of Djibouti is affected the locals . The largest Somali community in Dir Dhaba has always been the Gurgure who are stretched from Harar, Baabili to Dire Dhaba . In fact they were the original inhabitants of the city . Bith the TPLF and Illey has isolated the region. The Train that used to trade goods from Djibouti to the region had stopped ten years ago due to disrepair and old system, and the new in mostly connecting Addis. The only business that was coming from Djibouti was TPLF connected transit trucks that pass the land. The small contraband used by the locals were also destroyed. Everyone either come to Jigjiga to beg Illey or joined theOromo Kilil to survive. I do believe that the new Somali leadership can revatelize the economy and settle more Somalis to Diredawa. The Somali nomads east of the city can trade and come back to city. Thete was strategy from Illey and his clansmen to reduce the Somali territory to just to the Ogaden Hawd and those East of Jigjiga where Awdalitez live. He let go Baabili, Fayaan Biiro, Tulli, Jinacsani and others. These Somali Territories and their people including The Jasrso must be brought back. It will be tough , but a Somali strategy could make Dir Dhaba a Somali majority within few years. More Somali services must be brought to the city, and Paved roads from Diri Dhaba to east all the way to the Somali birder could bring more people and more trade Djibouti had killed Diri Dhaba and the likes of Ghelle won’t do anything.

Somali land always had done the opposite of what is right in terms of Somali region. Both Rayaale, Cigaal and Siilaanyo handed innocent victims to the Tplf. When Cabdi Illey and his henchmen murdered innocent people within Somali land borders they said nothing. Illey and his men used to come and party in Wajaale as they pleased. They even arrested people in Gabiley. Now falsely they are acting like someone who cares about human suffering. This is the traditional culture of the rich gulf Arabs. Haddad xoog Leedahay ood ku joogsato way kuu Sujuudi, Haddad daciif tahayna way kugu joogsan. If you step on their head they will respect you, but if you are weak, they will abuse you. That is the moral foundation of what we have seen the last 10 years.

Mooge , Do you know the guy?

This new guy is not stooge as far as his bacground is concerned . His brother was killed by Cabdi Illey, and his whole family was a victim of the Illey regime. He is an educated outsider who worked on humanitarian projects through the UN and other NGO. He was food security coordinator as his last job. he is getting good reviews and. Support from the Somalis in the region.

The ONLF has lost its marbles. Last week they landed in Jigjiga and was escorted by the Liyu police and a gang group called “ Heego”who were created by Cabdi Illey to terrorize and attach private property. As soon as the people of Jigjiga saw them with these hated groups they were stoned by the city people and shots were fired. Despite their old history, they have zero credibility among other Somalis of the region. They must work with others and find common ground with other Somalis. Both the former victims of Illey and the oppressors , the Liyu police, are allies now agatthd the rest of Somalis. The other group ASRD are bank rolled by Djibouti and will not go anywhere.

As Dahireto said he might have a lot of powers as the chief of of staff of the president. Yet I have a different take on Fahad Yasin , Farah Cabdulqadir and others on the Somali power structure. Fahad Yasin like his predecessor Farah Abduqadir earned this post with his skil , ability and education. They are not appointed to these powerful positions through clan affliliation or nepotism. They earned through personal achievements. In fact, he Sheikh community has been always a well educated, hard working community that reached an excellent achievements in business, education and social and communal harmony. They are pioneers of religious education and spreading Islam throughout the Horn of Africa. They easily join and became integral parts of the communities they settled with. A lot of people from Mogadishu and other places are shocked that an unarmed community could achieve this top positions of power without belonging the trouble makers who are crying for power daily in the social media and other platforms.. Weak leaders who couldn’t achieve their goals and their tribal entourage blame always the chief of staff who happen to be the wrong tribe. The chief of staff serves on the pleasure of the elected leader. During the regime of Hassan Sheikh , the HAG community blamed Farah Abduqadir,on any issues of public policy., and now the the D block under Farmaajo are saying that things are bad because of Fahad Yasin. these men , Fahad and company had rejected the Somali hiring practices of 4.5 and reached high places without clan affiliation and this is the opposite of the Mogadishu norm.i take my hats off to these men who are self made unlike many who are appointed through the clan system. You know what, Next time these men should run to the highest office rather help these weak leaders. Besides, since when the Kikuyo passport became important. Anyone with cash can buy their identity card and get their passports.

This has nothing to do with “Xorayn” or libration. It is a political party that has the word freedom in its name. Did you hear the Freedom Party or something similar? Onlf has to contest the next election like everyone else.

Xaaji as a northern people we must have full confidence in our ability. These so called Duopoly could be broken by confident people who are willing to play the game as it was designed. Fulaynimada iska Daa. The typical southern man is not a serious person by nature. Why would anyone accept to be a lame duck for four years and be ordered around by others while they telling you and calling you a president. Tough men who had mission, like Cabdilahi Yusuf quit and left when he realized that he could not be allowed to implement his agendas. I do not believe in duopoly or whatever name you call it. It is a political game that could be played and won by anybody. Men like Camey should work to gain the top jobs both inSomalia and Puntland.

Camey is a charismatic man with an eloquent command of the Somali language, everyone knows he has more stature than Gaas, Farmaajo and Biixi . If I were Farmaajo, I would have transferred the whole thing to him. In other words, he is a natural born leader.

The Turkish economy is strong in many different ways. Foreign nationals buying Turkish property is up 65%. ; in July , they had a quarter billion surplus in terms by their budget and many stake holders want the stability of the Turkish economy including power house Germany. Turkish private companies had borrowed billions from the European banks from Spain, Italy, Germany and UK, and these nations would lose billions if these compare default their payments. Turkey had always expected these, From late 2017, to this summer the Turkish bank had liquiditated and sold half of their Americas treasuriy bonds . Folks, this not a banana republic or some Eastern European country that could crush easily. It is a mighty nation of 80 million people who will be a player in the world affairs. There are another five or so Turkic speaking Central Asian nations that are also connected with Turkey. In early September, Turkey, Germany, France and Russia will be meeting in Istanbul to discuss Syria, security , refugee and defence issue without Trump managed USA. Turkey is targeted for so many reasons, yet it can’t be stopped anymore.. The Pax Americana that ruled the world since Second World War is dismantled with less than two years by Trump. These erratic behaviour of the Americans leadership is pushing many nations to find an alternative reserve currency for the global trade. If China, Russia, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan and others use local currency for trade, the dollar could be weakened, and as the dollar goes down so does Uncle Sam. Other than the Lira , the Turkish economy is fundamentally strong. From Monday on the Lira is gaining an average of 5 to 7% . I am not worried about Turkey, but the UAE and others will be in grave trouble if Trump and company are impeached.

Xasji tell that to the Gas Dhagoole or the know nothing southern boys. Any place where people settle without urban planning might look like a million people city. An acre that could have housed 20 houses is occupied by four or less. I have seen all these in the Hargeisa and Borama hills. The CIA fact book says that Hargrisa is inhabited by 750,000 people and I agree. If you look back the number of people that voted in the “ Gobolka Woqoyi galbeed “ —-which includes Wajaale, Gabiley, Salacley and all other small towns between them—-it was 225,000. If two thirds of them are under age or unable to vote that is exactly right. The mayor is selected by the ministry of the interior and they can dismiss him at will. This thing might not be all about the tribe, the whole purpose is to weaken the system to cover their crimes in the name of tribe. If the rule of law and the system is strengthened, the ruling class might not be able to steal or squander the resources. Unfortunately, they got people like Xaaji, although educated enough, yet willing to keep the old order of the Soviets .

If I were Farmaajo, I would kick out the do nothing, Ugali eating Africans who can’t venture outside at night in the dark. You have 5000 off them sitting in Stadio Mogadishu, another ten thousand or so are between Halane , the airport, and few bases in Shabelle were hey have aba ndoned back and forth since 2014. Why in the world do you keep 18,000 soldiers in Mogadishu?, There is no Al Shabaab army within Mogadishu that could take over the city military . All the African troops must leave city and take the fight outside. This has nothing to do with Djibouti, but Somalia trying to do things differently. Eritrea can join the Amisom group and replace Ethiopia, Uganda and Djibouti, and I am 100% sure the result will be much different. They are more Hungry and battle hardened than the Africans. There is already movement in villa Somalia, Qatar representatives Fahad Yasin is out of Villa Somalia, and the old military commanders were replaced. This is probably the last chance for Farmaajo to try different things. Despite the talk, things are sliding back to their old ways. Dr. Baadiyow who came from Mogadishu said that no matter who is in charge , the system is set up for failure. Now, let us address and refute the representative of the Hargeisa oligarchs in Djibouti Mr. Xaaji Xanjuf. Of course, there were IBRAHIM Dheere and other business people from Hargrisa who earned their money through legal means and the people of Djibouti know them and respect them. Those men and the old trading system are gone. They are replaced by banks, money laundering schemes and international oligarchs with no borders. The current crop of Hargrisa oligarchs in Djibouti are all corrupt thieves who are stealing millions of dollars from the poor people of Djibouti with help of Khadra Hayd , the greedy wife of Cumar Gheele. They own in Djibouti “ Waxii Dhaqaaqa “ and the people of Djibouti hate them like never before. Millions are borrowed from the Djibouti central bank that disappeared to Hargrisa.the former bank governor and brother of the Ghelle wife, Jana Hayd had invested millions with these guys, but suddenly he got sick and died in Nairobi hospital. During his last days at the hospital , an airplane full of oligarchs had landed in Nairobi to find ways to recover the millions of dollars guaranteed by the banker. Ina Geele Arab and the Cumar Geele family invested $30 million to set up a Coka Cola and water bottling company in Hargeisa, and these family and others with help of the wife had taken over the former businesses of Cabdiraxman Borreh , including running the port of Djibouti, American base services and all logistics for foreign armies in Djibouti. . This Ina Geele Arab , had suddenly left Djibouti in the middle of the night and disappeared to Hargeisa. Cumar Geele demand his return from the government of Hargeisa with no avail. The Hargrisa clan had been relocating and taking hard currency from Djibouti for the last few years. Everyone knows that they do not care about Djibouti, but since Djibouti is a financial hub and the base of many international banks , the Hargeisa oligarchs will stay there for now. There is a strong Djibouti opposition led by Dahir Ahmed Farah, and they should start maneuvering to replayGeele. The Hargeisa Habro want to keep the status quo and milk Djibouti as long as their in laws are controlling the money follow. Everyone in Djibouti knows that if change comes the first to be kicked out and stripped of the looted assets will be the West Hargeisa oligarchs.

Xaaji , whether you call it Federal Somaliland or not , this most centralized Soviet style system in Somaliland doesn’t work. In 2018, you can’t appoint governors and police chiefs to other regions, you can’t take property taxes and small business taxes to the coffers of Hargeisa. You should not be appointing even mayors from the counsel. Some of the major slogans of your grievances were that Somali government was sending governors from Gaalkacayo and Kismaayo. Finally, stop cheating there is no such thing as Saaxiil region, it is only the city of Berbera which belongs to Gobolka Wowoyi Galbred.

By the way, your darling Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, is getting ready to campaign for Cumar Ghelle and make this an election issue. we are two and half years away but everyone including Xaaji is ready. Unlike, Xaaji I don’t worry about my groceries.

Oodweyne, Sheeksdu ma waxay Dhaafi la’dahay Somaliland ayaa la soo weerarsyaa. Maxaad wax walba uga Dhigaydaan ansgaa nalagu soo socdaa . Mida kale Af Xumadan aad wax walba Bulaacada gaynaysaan miyaa iska Daysaan. In your world, Whom ever I attack probably denied me a base to attack Somaliland. Cumar Ghelle has been oppressing my people for twenty years, and he isn’t going any where. The average Djiboutian is suffering from sky rocketing Cost of living, lack of water and electricity while few families are stealing the resources like oligarchs and our Xaaji and company are the beneficiaries. The Hargeisa Habro control foreign exchanges and the treasury of Djibouti through their in laws and other thieving mechanism. On the other hand we the owners of Djibouti are poorer every day. I am speaking for the hundreds of thousands of poor Djiboutian who are looking way out. just like Meles, the president of Burundi and others , Mr. Ghelle is using the Somalia insecurity as a ladder to gain geopolitical stature and make money from the corrupt western donors. When he started the Carta conference twenty or so years ago, he was just a gangster who inherited his uncle, but hosting Somali Vagnonds made him statesman. We will get him sooner or later. Ooweyne, you are from Burco, you do not understand these quarrels , it is about the rule of law , good governance and helping the Djibouti people. Xaaji and company are Guilty of stealing just like the Tplf in Addis. Folks, some nights, I couldn’t fell sleep when I reflect about the crimes of Ghelle and company. Who knows we might get justice one day. Finally, I am not coming to get you so you could sleep in tranquillity . All we need is give Ahmed Shide a chance to prove himself. Who knows he might order Mr. Biixi around like the TPLF.
