Duqii hore ee Muqdisho Taabit Cabdi Maxamed ayaa si adag uga hadlay xayiraada la saaray shacabka Muqdisho iyo dilalka isi soo taraya ee lagu hayo dhallinyarada ku xamaalata gaadiidka Bajaajta. Maalmihii lasoo dhaafay, Muqdisho waxey aheyd magaalo kala xiran waxaana intaas dheer dilal ay ciidanka Dowladu ku hayaan shacabka. Wuxuu Taabit Cabdi Dowladda ka codsaday in ay cadaalad helaan qoysaska caruurtooda la laayay. Gudoomiyihii hore ee gobalka Banaadir ayaa qaba in Muqdisho oo aan heysan mataalad siyaasadeed in aaney xamili karin caburin joogto ah isagoo yiri “Xamar Xuquuq la’aan iyo Xorriyad la’aan ma wada qabato”. Hoos ka Aqriso qoraal uu Taabit soo dhigay boggiisa rasmiga ah ee Facebook. Xaaladda shacabka Muqdisho waa sii adkaaneysa maalinba maalinka xiga. Jidadka xiran waxaa ku biiray dilalka joogtada ah ee wiilasha dhallinyarada ah ee Bajaajta ku xamaasha. Aad baan uga murugoonayaa aqbaarta nuucaas ah. Bajaajleydu dhaqaale ayey magaalada u yihiin, waxay sahlaan isu-socodka bulshada, waxayna u badan yihiin dhallinyaro. Sidaa darteed waa inaan la dabar jarin jiilka Caasimadda. Dhowrkii maalmood ee lasoo dhaafay dilalka lagu hayo Bajaajleyda wuu batay mana jirto sabab cad oo loo aaneyn karo iyo wax ay galabsadeen toona. Waxaan tacsi u dirayaa dhamaan qoysaskii ay ka baxeen dhallinyaradaas gardarada lagu dilay. Dowladda waxaan ka codsanaya in ay cadaalad helaan ehelada marxuumintaas iyo in talaabo adag laga qaado askarta dhaqankaas caadeysatay. Waxaa fooda inagu soo heysa Ciidul-Fidrigii, weli Muqdisho waa kala xiran tahay, waxaana jira ganacsato badan oo aan weli suuq u helin agabkii ay u keeneen Ciida awgeed, sidoo kale waalidiin iyo caruur badan ayaan weli helin fursad ay ku tagaan goobaha ganacsiga jidadka xiran awgood. Dowladdu waa iney fududeysa isu-socodka magaalada, waa in ay raadisaa xal fudud oo amniga lagu sugi karo, bulshada Muqdishana ay ku ganacsan karto kuna noolan karto bilaa caburin. Xamar Xuquuq la’aan iyo Xorriyad la’aan ma wada qabato! Mahad-badan Thaabit Cabdi Maxamed

Sida ay sheegeen ilo xogogaal ahi, Maamulka Somaliland ayaa aqbalay qorshe ay wadeen Qaramada Midoobay iyo IGAD oo ah in marka koowaad laga sameeyo xabad joojin rasmi ah Tukaraq islamarkaana la bilaabo in la wada hadlo. Hase yeeshee Madaxweynaha Puntland Cabdiweli Maxamed Cali Gaas, ayaa qorshahaas diiday islamarkaana shuruud ku xidhay. Warku wuxuu sheegay in Mr. Gaas uu shuruud ka dhigay in Somaliland ay ciidamadeeda kala baxdo Sool, ka dibna la bilaabo xabad joojin iyo wada hadal. Talaabadan Puntland, ayaa warku wuxuu sheegay in beesha caalamka uu ku noqday caqabad islamarkaana ay ku cuslaatay shuruudaas uu Cabdiweli Gaas ku xidhay xabad joojinta,

Muqdisho (Caasimada Online)-Xildhibaan Mahad Salaad ayaa ka hadlay dhibaatooyinka ay dadka shacabka ah ku qabaan xirnaanshiyaha waddooyinka magaalada Muqdisho. Xildhibaan Mahad ayaa xernaanshiyada daba dheeraaday ku eedeeyay Dowlada Somalia, gaar ahaan madaxda ugu sareysa. Xildhibaan Mahad Salaad oo arrintaan ku cabiray qoraal uu kusoo daabacay boggiisa Facebook, ayaa su’aal ka keenay sababta ay Hay’adaha amniga u dhaqan galin la’yihiin amarka kasoo baxay Madaxweynaha dalka. Waxa uu sheegay inay garan la’yihiin waxa u sababta ah in amarka Madaxweynaha dalka ahna Taliyaha Guud ee ciidamada Qalabka sida uu ka dhaqan gali la’yahay keliya magaalada Muqdisho. Mahad waxa uu qoraalkiisa ku sheegay inuu garan la’ yahay in dalka uu leeyahay laba Madaxweyne oo talooyinkooda siyaabo kala duwan u fula.

Ilaa hada magaaladu sidii ayay ciriiri ugu jirtaa, cabashada shacabkana waa sii labo jibaarantay! Sida ku cad Qodobka 90aad, Farqadiisa (b, c) ee Dastuurka KMG, Madaxweynahu waa Taliyaha Guud ee Ciidammada Qalabka Sida. Wuxuuna magacaabaa Taliyeyaasha Ciidammada Heer Federaal xilkana waa ka qaadaa. Haddaba, hadii Madaxweynuhu amray in la furo wadooyinka xiran, waa su’aale: – Yey u xiranyihiin wadooyinka magaalada Mogadishu ilaa hada? – Hadiise Madaxweynuhu amar bixiyay maxay u fuli la’yihiin amaradiisu? – Mise magaaladii Mogadishu ayaa labo Madaxweyne yeelatay oo jidadka la gooyay Dowlad kale ayaa ka talisa?! Mudane Madaxweyne bil Ramadaan ayaa lagu jiraa, maalmihii ciidana afka ayay nagu soo hayaan ee dadka shacabka ah ciqaabta Ciidammada Amnigu ku hayaan halaga dul qaado. Mahadsanid. Hon.

Wadanka Imaaraadka ayaa u qabtay kooxaha Xuutiyinta Yemen waqti kama dambays ah oo ay ciidamadooda ugala baxaan magaalada dekadda leh ee Xudeydah. Imaaraadka ayaa waxa ay ku hanjabeen in haddii aysan Xutiyiinta ciidamadooda halkaasi kala bixin ay weerari doonaan. Gargaarka bina’aadanimo ee muhimka ah ee la gaarsiiyo Yemen ayaa waxa uu ka degaa dekadaasi. Wasiirka arrimaha dibadda Imaaraadka, Anwar Gargash, ayaa BBC u sheegay in isbahaysiga uu dulqaadkii ka dhamaaday gaar ahaan marka ay timaado in arrintan lagu xaliyo qaab dublamaasiyadeed. Xulafada uu Sacuudiga hogaamiyo ayaa waxa ay horey Xuutiyinta ugu qabteen in muddo 48 saacadood ah ay uga baxaaan Xudeydah. Horey ayay dowladda Britain u sheegtay in ay isku dayi doonto in ay ku qanciso xulufadada uu Sacuudiga hogaamiyo in aysan weerarin magaalada dekadda leh ee Xudeydah ee dalka Yamen. Qaramada Midoobay ayaa ka digtay in 250,000 ay naftooda halis galaayso haddii xulufada Sacuudiga ay ku dhaqaaqaan weerar ay ku qadaan dekadda magaaladaasi. ISHA BBC

Waxa uuna kashifay in 30 sano kadib aysan Somaliya weli ka guurin hayb iyo habar wacasho Qabiil, welina lagu murunsanyahay; Magaca dagaalka! Cida wada ama ka danbaysa! Sababta loo huriyey waqtigaan! Yey faa’iido ugu jirtaa! Yaa laga sugayaa joojintiisa iyo Xalkiisa!. Dagaal Sokeeye oo u dhexeeya beelaha deegaanka miyaa? Dagaal u dhexeeya dawladda Somaliland iyo dawladda Puntland miyaa? Maamulka Somaliland iyo Maamulka Puntland miyaa? Dawlada Federaalka iyo Maamulka Hargeysa miyaa? Midnimo-doon iyo Goosasha-doon miyaa? Harti iyo Isaaq miyaa? Jeegaan iyo Majeerteen miyaa? Siyaasiyiinta Sool ee kala jooga Hargeysa iyo Garoowe miyaa? Haddii aan Magaca, Sababka iyo cida wada dagaalka aan toos loo helin, runtana laga sheegin, loona kala fasirto siyaabo kala duwan, beena laga sheego u jeedka iyo xaqiiqda dagaalka xalkiisa lama gaarayo, lamana garano cida laga sugayo xalka? Dagaalka Tukaraq sabab kasta ha dhalisee waxa uu daaha ka qaaday dhawr arrimood; 1-Madaxweyne Biixi oo fulinaya talooyin ay siiyeen aqoon-yahanno reer galbeed ah oo Ictiraaf u raadinaya Somaliland iyo balan-qaadkiisii ahaa in uu Xuduuda Somaliland iyo Ictiraafkeeda keenayo. 2-Madaxweyne Gaas oo doorashada kusoo dhaw awgeed raba in uu dagaalka dhibco ka helo ama mudada ku kordhisto. 3-Khilaafka Khaliijka iyo taageerada Emaaraatka oo qeyb ka ah. 4-Labada Maamul oo ku fashilmay 28 sano kadib in ay ku qanciyaan labada Gobal ee Sool iyo Sanaag in ay midkood raacaan. 5-Labada Maamul oo ku fashilmay in ay ilaaliyaan Magacii iyo Nabaddii ka jirtay Gobaladaas mudada dheer kadib dagaalada Ceel-Afweyn iyo Tukataq. 6-Maamulka Hargeysa oo raba in uu dagaalka shaati Fedaraal u geliyo si uu taageero uga helo beelaha Somaliland. 7-Maamulka Garowe oo raba in uu arrinta beeleeyo si sheegashada Somaliland ee xuduuda Engriiska meesha uga baxdo. 8-Siyaasiyiinta Sool iyo Sanaag oo ku fashilmay in ay dadkooda maamul u sameeyaan ama labada maamul mid raaciyaan. 9-Wasiirada iyo Xildhibaanada kasoo jeeda Gobalada Sool iyo Sanaag ee Golayaasha Fedaraalka oo ku fashilmay in ay joojiyaan dagaalada Ceel-Afweyn iyo Tukaraq, Nabad na ugu baaqaan ama u geeyaan, kadibna kala taageeray Hargeysa iyo Garowe. 10-Dawladda Fedaraalka oo eed ka carar awgiis ka gaabsatay dagaalka, markii laga reebo baaq nabadeed oo ay hawada marisay. Hadaba waxaa nasiib darro ah in Nabadda aan lagu raadi karin qaab dhaqameed loo adeegsado xeerarkii Colaada iyo Nabadda beelaha Somaliyeed, loona mari karin wadadii dagaalka dawladaha iyo qaabka loo dhexdhexaadiyo! Maa daama uu leeyahay muuqaal dawladeed, hoosna ka yahay dagaal Qabiil???. Dawlada Fedaraalka waxaa u furan: 1-In ay maamul gaar ah u dhisto Gobalada Sool iyo Sanaag kana saarto murankan labadaan Maamul oo daba dheeraaday. 2-In ay u dirto AMISOM oo ay kala dhex dhigto. 3-In ay gogol u fidiso dhaqanka Sool iyo Sanaag si ay aayahooda uga tashadaan. Haddiise Maamulka Somaliland oo taageero ka helayo Labada Gobal ee Togdheer iyo Waqooyi-galbeed ku adkaysto in uu qasab ku muuqiniyo Gobalada Sool iyo Sanaag taas waxaa ka dhalan kara in 16 ka Gobal ee kale u midoobaan oo iyana muuqiniyaan labada Gobal, si aysan taasi u dhicin waa in ay wadahadal iyo baryo wax ku raadiyaan, haddii ay waayaana Somalidooda iska iimaansadaan!.

Muqdisho (PP) ─ Madaxweynaha Jamhuuriyadda Federaalka Soomaaliya Mudane Maxamed Cabdullaahi Farmaajo oo caawa la kulmay dalladaha ay ku midaysanyihiin culumada Soomaaliyeed ayaa ugu baaqay culumada diinta in ay dardar geliyaan kaalintooda kaga aaddan dagaalka ka dhanka ah afkaaraha xagjirnimada ah. Madaxweynaha ayaa sheegay in wadajirka iyo wada-shaqeynta culamadu ay asaas u tahay qorsheyaasha cirib-tirka argagixisada iyo dabar-gooynta fikradaha dib u dhigay dowladnimadeenna, oo ay ka mid yihiin qabyaaladda, musuqmaasuqa iyo caddaalad darrada. “Argagixisadu waxa ay ka macaashaan khilaafka ka dhex jira bulshada, gaar ahaan wada shaqeyn la’aanta culummada Diinta iyo Hormuudka Bulshada. Sidaas darteed, waa in idinka oo mideysan mar kasta aad u iftiimisaan bulshada in dagaalka aan kula jirno argagixisada uu yahay jihaad waajib nagu wada ah,” ayuu yiri Farmaajo. Isagoo sii hadlaya ayuu intaas ku daray. “Shacabka Soomaaliyeed waxay leeyihiin dhaqan sharaf leh oo waafaqsan diinteena suubban ee Islaamka, balse waxaa ku soo duulay kuwo ujeedkoodu yahay in ay tirtiraan cid kasta oo ku abtirsata magaceenna. Culumadu waa in ay bulshada u iftiimisaa dhagarta Al Shabaab iyo afkaarahooda gurracan.” Dhanka kale, Culumada oo la wadaagay Madaxweynaha aragtidooda iyo talooyinkooda ku aaddan dagaalka ka dhanka ah argagixisada Alshabaab, ayaa bogaadiyey guulaha la taaban karo ee ay ku tallaabsatay Dowladda Federaalka Soomaaliya. Culumada ayaa sheegay in ay kalsooni ku qabaan dadaallada ay dowladdu ku bixineyso dib-u-habeynta garsoorka, ilaalinta madax-bannaanida dalka, kobcinta dhaqaalaha iyo dib u soo-celinta boqolaalka dhallinyarada ah ee ku dhibaateysan xabsiyada shisheeye. Ugu dambeyn, Madaxweynaha Somalia ayaa uga mahad celiyey culamadii ka soo qayb gashay kulankan sida ay u ajiibeen marti qaadkan, isagoona tilmaamay sooyaalka ay culumada Soomaaliyeed ku leeyihiin gobonnimo doonkii dalka iyo dadaallada ay haatan ku bixiyaan wacyigelinta, faafinta cilmiga, xoojinta amniga iyo toosinta dhaqanka bulshada.

Around 3,500 fishermen in Somaliland have been put out of a living by the tropical cyclone Sagar that struck northern parts of Somalia on 18 May. Fishermen in Lughaya, Berbera, Sayla, Laas-qoray and El-Sheikh are struggling to feed their families after losing equipment and the damage of infrastructure. Ali Hussein Nur, director of Somaliland’s ministry of pastoralism and fishing, said four large fish cold storage facilities in Lughaya had been destroyed in the storms. The deputy chairman of the fishermen association in Lughaya, Awil Hussein, said their 1,500 members had seen their income slashed. Feysal Ali Sheikh, director of Somaliland’s disaster preparedness and food storage agency, said 53 fishermen who were out at sea when the storm came had made narrow escapes. Their boats were destroyed whilst the men were saved by the coast guards. Feysal said the government had issued warnings to stay away from the ocean two days prior to the cyclone. However, the fishermen continued to go out to fish. Feysal said he asked the regional administration to send out the coast guard to save fishermen stranded some 200 metres off shore as the storm increased. Mohamud Farah Ali, a fisherman in Las-qoray, Sanag region, and a father of five, normally earns $6 a day from fishing. His family is currently buying food on credit from the stores. Mohamud and two others were saved off Lasqoray coast. He told Radio Ergo they were powerless to navigate their way back to the shore due to the high winds. After two hours in the rain and storm, the coast guard came to their rescue. Some families dependent on fishing are now relying on aid handouts from Somaliland and Djibouti, as well as from UN agencies including UNICEF and WFP. Hussein Ibrahim Rayaale lost his house in the storm and is sheltering with his four children under plastic sheeting given out by UNICEF. He said they lost all their belongings. Awil Hussein, deputy chairman of the fishermen’s association in Lughaya, told Radio Ergo they have not calculated the losses caused by the cyclone. They are working to rebuild the fish storage facilities. Radio Ergo

The move by the Ethiopian government to open key economic sectors, among them Ethiopian Airlines, to foreign investment is likely to spur fast development of the country. The government this week said “state corporations– railway, sugar companies, industrial parks, hotels and various manufacturing firms” would also be either partially or fully privatised. This will enable Ethiopians in diaspora, who have wished to contribute to the development of their country, and foreigners to play a positive role in the country’s growth, according to a statement issued by the government. The move to liberalise sectors of the economy, particularly telecoms, which have always been off limits to foreign investors, came as a surprise after Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed earlier hinted to local businessmen that the government would still be in charge of infrastructural development, banking and telecoms. ECONOMIC REFORMS The ruling EPRDF coalition, which has held power since 1991, said it had taken the decision because economic reforms were needed to sustain rapid growth and to boost exports. “Hence … while majority stakes will be held by the State, shares in Ethio-Telecom, Ethiopian Airlines, Ethiopian Power, and the Maritime Transport and Logistics Corporation will be sold to both local and foreign investors,” the EPRDF said in a statement. The ruling coalition was referring to the state monopolies in the electricity, telecoms and logistics sectors, as well as the highly profitable Ethiopian Airlines. A shortage of foreign currency has threatened Ethiopia’s economic growth, which dropped to 8.5 per cent this year from 10.9 per cent in 2017, according to the International Monetary Fund. One of Africa’s leading money transfer companies, Dahabshiil, which operates in Ethiopia and other African countries, has welcomed the new move which its Chief Executive Officer, Abdirashid Duale, has described as a new dawn in Ethiopia’s economic growth. FOREIGN INVESTORS “Ethiopia is definitely going to grow at a faster rate economically, thanks to the government’s decision to open its doors to foreign investors and the Ethiopian diaspora,” said Mr Duale on Monday. Hundreds of investors from Africa and the rest of the world have always wanted an opportunity to work and invest in Ethiopia. This move opens doors for new entrepreneurs, investors and experts in different fields to move in to bring new ideas which will be beneficial for the growth of the country,” he added. Remittances, which is Dahabshiil’s key business, is an important source of foreign exchange for Ethiopia, perhaps larger than the export earnings of the country in its foreign exchange generation capacity. Over the last five years, the volume of remittances to Ethiopia has risen to between 2 to 6 billion USD per year. This is approximately the size of Ethiopia’s total export and development aid combined. DELIVER REMITTANCES Dahabshiil works with Ethiopian banks to deliver remittances to the Ethiopian community from one corner of the country to the other. Last year, Maureen Achieng’, Chief of Mission of the IOM Special Liaison Mission to Ethiopia and Representative to the African Union, UN-ECA and Intergovernmental Authority on Development, said both the receiving community and the Ethiopian government could benefit better from remittances. “If some of the persisting barriers are mitigated, such as high transaction costs, this could reduce the large percentage of informal remittance inflows, estimated at nearly 78 per cent for Ethiopia.” FOREIGN CURRENCY According to financial experts, another serious problem that drives remittances and affects Ethiopia’s ability to attract more foreign currency is the serious limitations faced by remittance companies that use Ethiopian banks. Their customers cannot withdraw their remittances from the bank of their choice because Ethiopian banks do not transfer foreign currency, such as US dollars, between themselves. The remittance companies can only withdraw funds from these banks in local currency and cannot get their foreign currencies back. Mr Duale is optimistic the new government, which is bent towards spurring economic growth, will act on this to encourage the more than three million Ethiopians in the diaspora to send more money through formal channels to help boost the economy.

Exporting southern troubles to the north will not be a solution for the war-torn population in Mogadisho and Kismayo. Being free from war businesses in Somalia, Farmajo’s presidency seems to be a glimpse of hope for those who learned his appearance in Shekh Sharif’s interim government. Because of his inexperience and untested personality, Farmajo seems to be unwise when he was tempted into Arb’s tug-of-war games. Although Sool was politically unresolved contention, it is evident that Puntland, before Farmajo’s tenure, were unwilling to attain its territorial claims through deadly military engagements. Last months, It was evident that Farmajo were doing whatever he could to disturb Somaliland’s investment opportunity, in which Dubai and Ethiopia are expected to develop the infrastructure of Ber-bara port. Farmajo was doing this to please his Qatari and Turkish patrons, disregarding the development of this investment will contribute to the region. He mobilized his Mogadisho Parliament to ridiculously outlaw the tripartite treaty, and ousted Jaware (Chairman of parliament) who appeared to be confused with substance of that motion. Respectively, they never stopped to call the Security Council attention to terminate the investment deal, and now, enough to sink the ship; Farmajo is building up armies and weapon in the name of Darodism along the border. Before those manipulations, Puntland as a neighboring region had shared common things with Somaliland. Both administrations had proved cooperative policies in many aspects, including security, Commerce and social movements. The political stability and the resilience of Somaliland was a model for Puntland—which is the only region that succeeded to build up a functioning administration in Somalia. Like Somaliland, they defiantly decided to do business with UAE, which was not in favour to the Federal Government. If we put it in Somaliland’s Perspective, this was seen as a rightful choice; for Garoowe administration to develop its infrastructure in the same way that Mogadisho improved its air and seaports with the Turkish investments. It is not right to interpret the military counteractions as antipathy towards to those who live across the border, but if asked Somalilanders will not hesitate to admit what the stability of Puntland’s polity means to them, since it provides them a buffer against the stresses of South. What makes Sool and Sanaag to be a contentious issue was not the cross-bordering ideal of Darodism that we recently hear from Groowe. These claims were not there before Abdillahi Yousuf. It is him, who told that including Sool clan and Warsengali figures in Garowe conference was not more than a political maneuver aimed to disturb Somaliland’s Effort toward recognition. On the other hand, Somaliland had no interventionist policy, seeing that it had done nothing to interrupt the arrangements of Puntland’s First Conference, whereas Mr Yousuf admitted in his Halgan and Hagardamo book his involvement in that conspiracies before the nascency of his Garowe bureaucracy . It is good for Puntland’s unskilled leader, and his colleague, Farmajo, to read the memoir of their Forefather (Abdillahi Yousuf) before they answer whether Tukaraq is a worth-fighting issue or not. Las-anod was left to itself to directly choose its local council; since Garoowe had failed to get its first elected Mayor. The basic question that one should ask himsef Is whether the Abdulhakeem Amey of Puntland is the true advocate for Sool people, or the 25 councilors whom they supported with their votes? If Puntland claims Sool and Sanaag territories on the basis of its blood-relation are logic; it should define its attitude towards the people whom their relatives are coexisting; are they casted from another planet? It is shame for its administration, to engage their peace-loving people into the uncertainty of a brand new, ethnic-related hostility. Somalilanders believe that Sool people will be lucky, if they took advantage from their kinship with Puntland and citizenship in Somaliland at once. Nothing prevents them to be the brothers of one and the cousins of the other. The pastoral life of that regions does not need territorial restrictions and patrolling troops, but to live out the troubles of urban classes. So Puntland’s argument is nothing more demagoguing Somaliland People with hatred. Previously, Abdillahi Yousuf had failed to adopt his Nazi-like pan-darodism advocacy, when lower juba Marehansof Kismayo refused to be dictated from Graroowe, and chose non clan-related alliance with another group (Mogadishu Clan, eyr). In this regard only Harti communities neither will be logical nor empirical approach, since there is no well-defined social topography that demarcates Harti-clans from their neighboring clans. Whatever their clans, Sool and Sanaag populations are interwoven society. They are ecologically compelled to live side by side, despite of their lineage diversity. The socio-economic structure of this area is non-urbanized, sparsely populated, where lives of its communities depend on sharing pasture and water. So the dissidence of Diaspora and certain office-holders in Garowe is not serving for the interest of their pastoral communities. Yes, there are many things that are wrong in the make-up of Somaliland’s political structure. And I believe that wrongs cannot be righted by those who hang-out in Garoowe, but by those whom the life and the development of their constituency is concerned. Although Somaliland is not a politically repressive or restricted environment, it has to do more to demonstrate its willingness to actually respond to the political grievances of Sool and Sanaag people. There should be more openness and flexibility from the part of the government, whenever the question of what the future of Somaliland’s statehood holds for non-isaks, is on the table. Thanks to intellectuals like Ali Khalif, Ahmed Samatar and Hagle-tosiye who shared the conviction that says ‘Sool and Awdal should not treat themselves as the guests that wait to be served, rather standing to the ‘heat of the kitchen’.

HARGEISA– Somaliland says it has welcomed United Nations and IGAD’s efforts to declare truce between Somaliland govt and militia soldiers backed by Puntland which skirmished in the town of Tuka Raq. Puntland, a federal state in Somalia has dismissed the relentless attempt from the international community to end the hostility between the two sides. Somaliland has fomally accepted the move to declare a ceasefire and is to start talks with Puntland authority. The president of Puntland, Abdiweli Gaas has rebuffed the peace agreement proposed by UN and IGAD but said that he will only make peace with Somaliland unless certain demands are met. Firt of all, Mr. Gaas has said that Somaliland must withdraw its armed forces from Tuka Raq. The President further reiterated that Somaliland must end the fighting and start talkning. Puntland’s refusal to accept UN and IGAD brokerered peace agreement is an obsticale to end the animoisty between Somaliloand and Puntland. The Int’l community is due to make a decision in the days to come concerning the rejection of Puntland to accept the proposed peace accord. Puntland has categorically denied media reports that talks are to start with Somaliland as said by SL’s FM, Dr. Sa’ad Ali Shire.

By Dr. Hussein M Nur Despite the serious concerns described in the previous part and as articulated in poetic styles, the government did not address them the issues and the Somaliland politicians were unable to rectify the distorted situation. But the widespread dissent and injustices paved grounds for the rise dissidence. A practical show of the rejection of the unification presented itself when a group of junior military officers of Somaliland origin attempted a military coup. Fresh from British and Egyptian military academies and colleges, the junior officers joined the Somaliland Scouts, they were indeed ingenious to evaluate to evaluate the political situation. They immediately became disenchanted with the system and the union state. They faced direct discrimination and injustices within the military force. They rightly predicted the distorted road Somaliland was set. They were young innocent officers who had no taste for power yet. Just before the instatement of the union, in Italian Somalia, there was a frantic race and a mad rush for promotions among the armed forces. There was a wholesale officer promotion open only for the officers in the South. The officers of the Somaliland Scouts regiment of the Somaliland protectorate were not involved in the commotion and mayhem of that matter. The officers from the South before union were all from the Police force (there was no military force in Italian-administered Somalia). Contrarily, however, in Somaliland, there was a well-trained Somaliland Scouts military regiment. Most of the Its junior officers were graduates from distinguished top military academies in Britain such as Sandhurst and Mono as well as Egypt. At the time of unification, besides the well-trained army, the Somaliland Scouts of about 2000 strong. Somaliland also had its police force. Just before the union, in Italian Somalia, many of the police officers were transferred to form a new military force even though they had no military experience and training at all. According to Abdillahi Aden ‘Congo’ and Awil Ali Duale (two of the few members of the aborted coup in 1961 to be discussed), most of the officers in the south were promoted twice. Firstly they were promoted when Somaliland independence was declared on 26 June 1960. For example, those with the ranks of Captains or Majors were promoted a rank up, i.e., dressing as Majors and Lieutenant Colonels respectively and again they were promoted another rank up when Italian Somalia became independent on 1 July 1960 as Lieutenant Colonels and colonels. Even the junior officers dressed two ranks up with some being promoted to seniors. There was plainly a mad rush for promotions. Whilst in Somalia such a scramble for higher ranks and generous bonus promotions were up for grabs, in Somaliland, owing to their loyalty, the officers from the Somaliland Scouts regiment and police did not take part, i.e., they did not make themselves promoted not even once. In the first year of the union, some junior officers (Abdillahi Aden ‘Congo’, Awil Ali Duale and Abdillahi Said Abby) visited Mogadishu to meet up with the newly-appointed Military Commander, General Daud Abdulle Hersi and to make their complaints but the General did not listen to them. General Hersi was a police officer of Italian Somalia. The General was the fourth in a rank of the police force in Somalia whilst General Mohamed Abshir was the highest in rank in the police force followed by General Mohamed Siyad Barre and General Abdalla Sandhere as the third in rank of the police force. General Hersi showed no sympathy to the Somaliland junior officers’ in relation to their complaints. Meanwhile, the government’s top posts of the government were dominated by people from Somalia. Allocations were based on clan system and not on merit. Representatives from the two major clans of Somalia were the candidates for major posts. General Mohamed Abshir and General Mohamed Siyad Barre were from the same main lineage. The allocation of most important posts and portfolios involved taking turns between officers of the two main clans in Somalia (Mogadishu Clan and Darod). Abdillahi Aden Congo compares this act as a Somali children’s traditional riddle or game “ii Cug!, Cirka!’ (‘I Take this! You Take that!’) or ‘qaatay ee qaado’ (I got, you pick). Thus, taking turns was the default formula for power-sharing between the two main protagonist tribal actors. Because of that game in play, General Siyad Barre lost his seniority post. He was second in seniority after General Mohamed Abshir and expected to be allocated to the post of military commander. But nevertheless, since General Abshir was from the same clan as Barre was allocated the post Police Commander, the post of military commander was the turn of the major rival clan. So, therefore, it went to General Daud who was the fourth in the chain of seniority (Mohamed Siyad Barre was, in fact, second the seniority after Mohamed Abshir and Abdalla Sandhere who was the third in seniority chain. Barre, a senior ahead of General Daud, was demoted to the Chief of Staff post of the Military simply because he belonged to the same clan as Mohamed Abshir. Barre was denied the post of Military Commander because of his clan affiliation to general Abshir. Siyad Bare felt bitter injustices. The Somaliland junior officers decided to plan a military coup the aim of which was to bring back the lost independent state of Somaliland so that Somaliland would be in a better position to correct the mistakes incurred during the unification and to eventually address the unforeseen consequential issues of injustices, marginalization and domination. They saw that only in that way would Somaliland be in a stronger position to make reasonable negotiations and adjustments should it wished to unite with Somalia. In fact, it was only the Somaliland Scouts was still intact as an institution not yet touched with the quagmire of the politics. Immediately, after the union, almost all of the civil servants in Somaliland government offices were transferred in masses to the South. The Somaliland government in the North was dismantled and reduced to some fringe offices run by southerners and as a region with a governor. Such injustices were clearly sensed by the public in the North. The cardinal objective of the junior officers was to return Somaliland to back its independent status quo. Who is who of the members of the coup? The core group of the coup was initially composed of eleven officers though later increased to twenty-three. They were: 1.Hassan Abdillahi Walanwal (Hassan Kayd) (2-star lieutenant) (Buroa/Togdheer);2. Abdillahi Mohamed Aden (Abdillahi Congo) (2-star Lieutenant) (Hargeisa);3. Muhumed Abdillahi Robleh (Muhumed Awr) (2-star lieutenant); (Sahil); the rest were one-star lieutenants: 4. Abdillahi Said Abby (aka as Gamadhere) (Hargeisa); 5. Said Ali Ghir (Las Anod); 6. Mohamed Mohamoud Said ‘Bidihleh (Hargeisa); 7. Mohamed Abdirahman Haji Jama (Lugooyo) (?); 8. Faisal Haji Jama Geddi (Buroa); 9. Awil Haji Ali Dualeh (Hargeisa); 10. Abdillahi Abdi Farah ‘Deyr’ (Hargeisa); 11. Daud Ali Yahye (Borama); 12. Hussein Mohamed Bullaleh (Hussein Dakhare) (Berbera); 13. Abdillahi Ahmed Kibar (Gabiley); 14. Mohamed Warsame (Borama); 15. Mohamed Mohamoud Raghe (Berbera); 16. Abdi Yusuf (Hargeisa); 17. Mohamed Sh Muse (Sheikh); 18. Ahmed Haji Deria (Buroa); 19. Ali Harun (Buroa); 20. Said Oogle (Buroa/Togdheer); 21. Abdi Dhala Abdi (Las Anod); 22. Abdikarim Ashur (Las Qoray); 23. Abdi Ali Hussein (Abdi Habashi) (Jigjiga) Abdillahi Aden ‘Congo’ Until today there is an archetypal myth – that those involved in the coup belonged to one clan. However, the truth of the matter is that they represented most of the clans and regions across Somaliland as they shared the same common feelings – the imbalance power, the injustices and inequalities in the military force and the way Somaliland independence was handled at the time. Therefore, the officers stood for a unique experience. Some senior officers who were not involved today express that the junior officers were young fresh graduates, inexperienced and understood no politics. I retain the opinion that the junior officers were right and they did it for that reasons and not for a search of power as seniors would have liked. As retold by Abdillahi Aden and Awil Ali Duale (both of them members of the coup) the plan was to conduct the coup in two years’ time. But nonetheless, for internal technical reasons and for unforeseen circumstances, the coup took place earlier on 10th December 1961. In earnest preparations, some officers already and immediately showed reluctance while others not even endorsed the idea. That brought suspicions among the coup planners and that they would foil the operation by disclosure of the movement of the groups. Therefore, a hasty decision had to be taken – the coup to occur well in advance of its planned timescale. The Commander of the Somaliland Scouts regiment, Colonel Mohamed Ainanshe, the late Colonel Abdillahi Yusuf and other officers from the South were detained on the day. Lieutenant Abdillahi Abdi Farah (Deyr) was posted to take control of the central police station and Lieutenant Mohamed Mohamoud Rage held Radio Hargeisa. The plan was that detainees were to be kept far from the scene of the operation, Hargeisa and Somaliland Scouts Headquarters. They were supposed to be kept at the Government rest house at Ga’an Libah Mountain, near Adadley. That did not happen as the officer who was assigned to the task did not execute the job as planned. Instead, they were kept at a private house owned by Abdillahi Darawal then resided by Awil Ali Duale, one of the coup plotters. The prisoners were under guard by Lieutenant Abdillahi Said Abby and private Abdillahi Ali Hussein. The Somaliland scouts soldiers at Birjeex military base in Hargeisa missed their commander, Colonel Mohamed Ainanshe and other superiors. That itself raised suspicion and as soon as their whereabouts were sighted, the soldiers stormed the house. A fire was exchanged between Lieutenant Abdillahi Said Abby, the officer in charge of the detainees. Officer Abby and a companion, Ahmed Awad, were killed in the exchange of fire as they refused to give up and release the detainees. Hassan Kayd, a senior member of the coup was shot and injured in the knee walking by the gate of Birjeex Military HQ. Within the same day, the coup was aborted. All officers in revolt were imprisoned overnight in Hargeisa but were immediately transferred to Mogadishu. The details of the conditions of the prison and how they were treated were exposed by the surviving individuals of the plotters. The prisoners were taken into custody at a training camp known as ‘Botigo’ (later re-named as ‘Halane’) near Mogadishu. In the jail, they were badly and inhumanely treated in appalling conditions. After several months, they were then transferred to Mogadishu central prison (‘cella morta’ in Italian which means the ‘dead cell’). They were kept in the dark underground at the basement, tunneled under the Indian Ocean Sea. After languishing in jail for about a year and a half, private Indian-Kenyan lawyers were hired from Nairobi, Kenya for them and court proceedings started in Mogadishu. The proceedings of the trial at the court in Mogadishu began in July 1963. The judge was Mr. Hazelwood, a British from the court of Hargeisa in Somaliland oversaw the deliberations and the final verdict ruling with an Italian prosecutor. (St. Ricardo!!). The proceedings took nearly two months. Finally, the prisoners were cleared and acquitted. The verdict was ‘not guilty’. In fact, the judge declared no case at all. The debacle of the case at the court was determined by several reasons: That the officers were never sworn for a country called ‘Somali Republic’. The last time they swore, it was for the Queen of England for Britain. That the judgment was not to be brought under the constitution of a country called (Somali Republic). Instead, it should have been conducted under Somaliland state jurisdiction. Hence, to be judged under the Indian Penal code. The only constitution available (that of Somalia) which was only effective at the time took precedence and the case was taken as a civilian case. Had the case been heard in a Somaliland court, it would have a criminal court and the prisoners would have been tried under the Somaliland legal instruments, i.e., the Indian Penal Code and they would have been court marshaled under the Somaliland Scouts military law. Therefore, article 6 of the Republic’s constitution directed that court marshaling of military officers was inapplicable so long as there was no war situation in the country. In Somaliland, the prisoners would have been convicted as guilty and concluded with a firing squad (death penalties). The court case proved that the union with South was not void and non-existent and there was no binding document ratified bilaterally by the partners of the union. In fact, there was no Act of Union which was ratified as a legal binding contract between the two states. Abdillahi Mohamed Aden (Congo), a senior officer member of the coup, affirms: “Had the court been in Hargeisa, we would have been court marshaled in accordance with the Somaliland Scouts regiment law. We would have surely been shot by a firing squad because we committed a treason crime against the State of Somaliland and not against a country called the Somali Republic for which we had never avowed or taken an oath for”. Soon after the failed coup, punitive measures were taken by the government which was dominated and powered by the South. In the same month of the year 1961, another serious discontent surfaced. The SNL, a northern political party, noticeably expressed discontent and advocated boycott in the referendum. Such episodes clearly constituted some of the early signs of discontent and disagreements as a result of political and administrative differences. They also acted as forms of expression and discontent by the people from the North within the union right from the start the civilian governments that came to power between 1960 and 1969 failed to address the problems and to find out solutions for the standing grievances of the northerners.
