this election reversed a lot of gains that the people made for the last ten years. Xaaji i don;t understand why you putting here a tribal boasting video. their are too many clips in the net were certain tribe is thumping their chest. when it comes to zaylac 95% of the businesses and houses belong to AWDAL COMMUNITY. That does not mean people who hail the Djibouti majority community does not live their. it is all about demography. the last parliamentary election in somaliland 14 seats were contested in awdal region and they were given with out competition in order for them to have presence. We the awdal community game them because we share a lot. now here we see a guy like you who came from the East of somaliland string the pot to make some mischief among neighbors. here we have a government that does not want to flow the rule of law. usually it is the citizens who should be convinced to follow the rules. in zaylac election was held and 10 out of 17 were gedabuurisi , they elected the mayorand vice mayor. Siilaanyo says that Geele of djibouti asked me a favor to make the mayor for the ciise community since you guys did the same thing during Rayaale;s time. Well mr Siilaanyo the world is changed. on of Somaliland warlords by the name of Muuse Biixi who suppose to be kulmiye chairman spoke like the commander of Hutu militis by publicly saying that during Snm strugle the djibouti community helped us , so now it is our turn to help them in Zaylac. All we saying is the election result must be followed, this city is not different from the whole country or else.We spent a great deal of time to educate this Eastern guys with no avail. if you look Burco in one election the number is 137,000 the second when which Siilaanyo won they registered 340,000, every cycle is different . while in Awdal it is always the same number with some up and down. Mr. Siilaanyo their is news flash for my friend if you mess with the vote of people of Zaylac kiss good by your throne, because this time we mean business. I am for the rule of law but if the head of the state want to destabilize the land , I cannot help. also mr. Xaaji we are the fouders of djibouti and 25% of djibouti we fought for the Independence of that land against the french ho decimated us because we were fighting to unite djibouti to Soomaliweyn. . we established also Somaliland in Borama so we could live in peace with our neighbors who are always drifting to Fawdo and Qabiil.

I think the presence of Faisal in Somaliland is important. because of him democracy survived . during Rayaale and siilanyo quarrels he was the one who stood up for rule of law. No without him their is no opposition. He is interested in rule of law , will be much better than Siilaanyo and Cirro.I think Awdal will vote for ucid.

Well Siilaanyo made a lot of mistakes especially the armature Palace minister running the show. he is former Islamist with a checkered past, having said that this writer's article is just tribal garbage and name calling. it has no place in this forum.

Oba, saaxiib arintan aad soo qortay AWdal state oo Pro. Samatar dacaadaynaysa ayaa soo qortay. Anigu ma qabo in qof lagu eryadu qabiilkaaga maxaad u qabatay. Casharadan saxaafada la idiin marinayey sanadkan oo dhan no money can buy. mida kale xamar lagu joogo ciidan usc ee waxa lagu joogaa awooda unisom. Shariifku during his term he did visit even Balcad. as soon as he lands from the airport he is taken by aminson tank to the villa, so , I deos not mather whether you are from Borama or xamar. also being surrounded by tribal militia or foreign army doesn't bring stability. your uncle Aidid captured Gaakacayo to Kismayo, finally he was killed one of his nephews. How about Abdilahi yusuf with 30,000 Ethiopian troops, dhiigii uun buu sii badiyey. to take 100 dollars of a solders salary from mogadishu to hiiraan is a big task. dawladnimadu wasiiro iyo madaxweynayaal diyaardaha raaca wey ka weyn tahay. Ina Samatar oo kale hadaad heli lahaydeen burburka iyo dhibta waad ka bixi lahaydeen. waar umadan hala badbaadiye xukunkan iyo wareerkan iska daaya oo fadhiista , miyaydaan bani aadam ahayn labaatan sano ayaad kor u dhaafteen weli , it is like nothing happen. Beelaha D iyo H ba walaalayaal fadhiista koob shaaha ma caanaynaysaane.

Markii shirkii Carta la regeyey ayaa Allah ha u naxariistee Cigaal waxa u yimid Mohamed abshir Haamaan talana waa la isla meel dhigay. in Baarlamaanka carta lagu soo doorto cigaal loo keeno, oo la yidhaahdo idinku lixdankii baad noo keenteen anaguna hadaanu wadnaa ee wax ka yeel , madaxweyne noqotayaa wixii kaleba, caasimad nabad ah waad joogtaaye. markii dJIBOUTI LAGU DOORTAY BAARLAMAANKI C/qaasim iyo rag kale ayaa la aaday hotel xamar ku yaala oo xabadi wiifta ka dul hayso. markii 20111 kii Shariifku taangiga unisom ku dhuumanayey ayaa oday waayeela oo saaxiibkay ah oo reer hatgeisa ah ayaa yidhi " adeer maanta ninkani sow kursi dhiigle kuma fadhiyo, haa, ma saldanad uu luminaya ayaa jirta hadii uu kursiga ka dego , waa maya. hadaba adeer hadaad tidhaahdo maanta bahashn aynu qaado oo siday u dhan tahay aynu Hargeisa geyno, kaa yeeli maayo. sidaa uu diyaaradaha u raacayo eee madaxweyne la lleeyahay waxba ugama damayso. dhamaantood waa sidaa. kurbaba ma hayso. nin jawhar iyo baoidhabo ku dhashy aragtidaa dheer ee umaddan geeska joogta ma garan karo. dawladnimadii reer woqooyigu keenan ma garan karo.

When prof. Samatar was campaigning for Hiil qaran in early may he did big speech about the future and how Somalia is in the crossroads. he said (dad baa qaba in ay somaalinimadii dhimatay oo baabaday, anigu waxaan rumaysnahay in dhaawac badani gaadhay oo weli la badaadin karo). reer koonfurku wax welba waxay u haystaan hadal la iska yidhi. waxa uu yidhi waar Soomaaliyey is daba qabta, Folks this wasn't an academic exercise, it was a real diagnosis of the issue. every thing is a game for you guys. you seem to think every body is a professor, by the way he is not geography prof, he teaches political economy and the first black man to become a dean of a white university. reer puntland kan ina wareeriyey iyo reer suoth kan hadii maanta lagu wareejiyo xagay gayn dalkan. . shan reer koonfur ah iyo intaas in leeg oo reer puntland ah ayaa madax noqday. koob shaaha ma caanayn. Weligiinba is bedbedela, Samatar wuu soo taabtay, wuxuu arkay prof. wada bug ah oo meesha ordaya.hadiiba ay dhacdo mustaqbalka in la isku biiro waa in Caasimada Hrgeisa la keena. u malayn maayo qof reer Soomaliland ah ayuun baa diyaarada marba meel u raaci lahaa ayadoo dadku gaajo iyo macaluul u dhimanayaan. ku jira ciyaarta oo xukunka iku bedbedela ilaa qiyaamaha.

If people don't criticize this slow moving caravan now, four years will lost without no achievement. the most important job of this president is to bring security. He probably thought by declaring war on al-shabaab will be enough credit to gain the confidence and acceptance of Ethiopia. Nin xaaskaaga doonaya gabadhayda aan ku siiyo kaa yeeli maato. waxuu u malaynayaa arrinta ugu weyn ee shisheeyaha Somaalia keenay gaar ahaan dalalka deriska in ay Al-shaab tahay. I remember during Abdi qasims term, Premier Hassan Abshir going to ADDIS, and guaranteeing Meles that no islamist will be allowed in the cabinet and offering so many other concessions. Finally he said mr. pime minister what is your answer, meles said you will get my answer soon. as soon as Abshir landed mogadhisho the Ethiopian troops entered Gaalkacayo. Former american president Eisenhower said you make peace through strength. In diplomacy peace must be mutual. those who reject peace must know their are prices to be paid. Another main point is he was elected in uu Xadhkahan deriska kala furfuro. sanad gudohood hadii aanu waxba kala furikarin uu dhibku sii bato ciidamada shisheeyana soo bataan. waa in baarlamaanku is dhaafiyaa, ilayn afar sano ma khasaari karto.

You staying their hotel because they own the best buildings, hotels and businesses in town.

I think it is wrong to blame Dahabshiil any other legitimate businessmen who hail from the east. These men made their money before Siilaanyo and they employ a lot of people in Somaliland.Their investment must be welcomed whether it is Berbera or zaylac.

Maybe I went little overboard, I have no intention of dismissing this regions, but if you look carefully those who advise him and his inner circle , it does not take much to know how this president is challenged in so many ways. Oba la isma gaadhin, markii tartanka lagalay lixdii qof ee u saraysay, Afar ka mid ah isku xaafad ayey ahaayeen. taas macneheedu ma reer Balcad ayaa uGu kambayn fiicnaa Soomaalidii tartamaysay. jawaabtu waa mayua. because the used the resource of the capital region. that is some us will be demanding sooon that the capital city must moved to Hargeisa or some where else, other wise we will have the same recycled politician's of Mogadhisu.This is the last time, you have three years or less to get your act together, because the survival of the nation is more important than the capital.

Yes , I agree, after one year of confusion he will get rid of these prime minister and start all over again. He does `t understand the difference between friendship and competence. this has been the hallmark of this government who want to surround themselves with relatives and friends. just check Vila somalia you don`t have one single heavy weight politician who can handle international diplomacy. Of course that is what you get because the most important resume is born in Ali Yaale, jowhar in hiiraan. Since when the southern Somalis mastered foreign diplomacy. none.maba oga wadankani ku daynayo hadaanu helin dad wax garanaya.

the kulmiye guys wanted to manipulate the the session to elect the mayor. they dispatched a vice minister who wanted the meeting behind closed doors but the governor demanded open vote by raising the hand which eliminated the old mayor and elected two new people. in return the president and the palace minister got mad and fired the governor. PEOPLE feel that was retaliation . BY the way berbera is the home of the late great Cigaal.

When do the Somali people stop blaming others. You have an elected government with a mandate, these IGAD issues and other maneuvers are part of international diplomacy and pressure tactics. we all remember as soon as the president Hassan was elected a Kenyan foreign minister came to mogadishu to meet the leader which coincided the blowing up of the hotel by al-shaaab, after he returned to Nairobi he accused Shariif to be the culprit. guys that was the first bullet of diplomacy waxani ciddii kala furfuri lahayd ayaa la rabaaa. waa maxay blaankiisu. Shariif baa wuxuu yidhi` Àddeer dabagaale ayaan dabin u dhigtay Maroodi aaa iigu soo dhacay`. waa sidii oo kale, wadan hawlihiisu u baahan yihiin khibrad iyo furdaamin oo shisheeye iyo sokeeyaba curyaamiyey miyaa Ustaad yar oo Xamar iyo Nairobi u dhaxeeya kala furdaamin.karaa. hadaad xasuusataan Samatar iyo dadkii wax fahmayey waxay dhaheen wadanku xaalad adag buu marayaa oo u baahan karti. reer Koonfurka waa lagu yaqaana diyaarado la raaco oo mar uun madaxweyne la dhaho.

It is a new cash cow for the `(bariga iyo badhtamaha afrika)., you remember the old days when Somalis travel to Sauudiga to make hard currency, we use to call them ``Janaale` , well folks it is the same thing. They make 1200 dollars a month while the somali solder in beledweyne couldn't even get his 100 dollar per month. Qoslaaye thinks buy laughing like a boy who met his favorite idol when meeting world leaders will bridge the gab. The problem in this country is their is no stranded . a country who has suffered so much must must build it`s reputation and honor slowly rather than begging neighboring countries. Why not send the so called foreign minister or the slow moving prime minister to set the stage and discuss the outstanding issues with other leaders before hand. reliable sources said that he left empty handed both from Ethiobia and kenya. When you get a small time traded from Gedo with no government experience as prime minister and low level ustad who never met difficult challenge in his life , no wonder after 100 days they didn't left the door.

President shariif as soon as he was elected in Djibouti flew to Addis, without even considering that the Ethiobian army crushed his movement few months ago. rather than build the bridge slowly and restore some honor he was interrogated by foreign minister Musfin. this nation's honor was rapped many times. Have you seen any minister or prime minister setting the stage before the president embarks this voyages. the agenda of the state and the contentious issues must be discussed extensively with other leaders by the foreign minister or some body else before you hit the capitals. He keeps smiling like a teenage who met his idol.

The most pressing issue is national security, for every dollar they get , ninety cents must be spent on national army. this president thinks having entourage and friends in villa Somalia will do the trick. He visited Ethiopia and he gave the shop away, for what . he thought getting close to Ethiopia would marginalize Kenya from Kismayo. he failed on both sides. listen, this southern elites can`t save this country. they only think being called president is enough. Their only hope is foreign aid. Even today he was complaining the allocation of money from donors. Look at his cabinet, there are no heavy weights who could bring any meaningful help from the international community. This is the foundation of their thinking, avoid those who may have higher understanding of government and politics. fill the deck with no bodies. what a waste of four years.

In the real world hundred days usually gives you an idea where the elected government is heading. It took the prime minister over two months to complete the cabinet. some ministries have a minister, minister of state and two vice ministers. their is no job for four guys. they don't have any plan to raise internal revenue, they have no idea how to build a national army and their only hope is foreign aid and African troops. This country can't afford people who sit idle and spend 100 days to nominate a cabinet. They should be working sixteen hours a day to improve the lot of the people. What a waste of time especially the prime minister.

Does any one remember booli qaran in mogadhisho, that is exactly what you see. all these buildings and mansions are owned by the ruling class with foreign aid money. it is the most expensive place in Africa. the ruling class get paid one million franks a month which is equivalent of 6500 dollars. it is one city of 700,000 people including the small towns. the only airline they have is owned by the president and it is parked in south Africa, when he needs to fly some where the south african pilots bring to Djibouti. electricity costs $300 a month for the poor., water is scarce, unemployment is 50% for the youth , their are no universities and the elite send their kids to France. It is treble place if you are poor or a regular people. He gets money from France, European union, Saudis, Iran and many other countries. their are no newsapers or private Tv and no one can question the dictator
