Maakhir, instead of namecalling and insulting a person why don't you critize his policies. Its naive of you to attack him with Fadhi Ku dirir jibes such as his mental issues when you could discuss what your expectations of him were and where his performance came short. If there is a foretell of where Farmaajo euphoria will end look no further than the complaints against Abdiwali Gaas. I think Somali leaders promise a lot and we the people don't question how they are going to fulfill their promises i.e how they are going to pay for their rosy projects. We need to face our delusions of we are blessed with resources.The reality is the country is broke and whatever little there is, it's not enough for the huge obstacles that is facing any leader. Add this to the constant bickering of clans and sub clans over silly posts that any leader has to navigate through.

Gooni Correction: Puntland did not claim strikes so far except low level officer who I heard has been disciplined. No minster or senior officer ever claimed to be orchestrated from Puntland. I think Galmudug was quick to nail the blame on Punland. Wixii dhintay Allah unaxariisto somalidana Allah mideeyo.

Galbeedi, Sxb ha isku daalin ninkaan wuxuu rabo ilaa iyo hada lama yaqaan. Waa uun ismuujin iyo reerkayaga qori waa qaadan karaan ii fiirsha. Reerkiisu haday rabaan xukun meesha ay u maraan waa yaqaaniin. Midna ogoow tani lama mid aha Cade Muuse iyo C/laahi Yusuf. C/laahi termkii baa ka dhamaaday wakhti kororsi aan sharci ahayn buu sameeyay taasaana dagaalka keentay. Dad badan oo reer mudug ahna waxay u arkayeen inuu gardarnaa. Laakiin wiilkaan Galan xukunkii markii laga qaaday buu maleeshiyo reerkiisa aruursaday si uu loo dhaho meel ha la geeyo ama uu gorgortomo. Meesha dhibku ka jirana waa Aruntii muxiyadiin ee reerkiisu khalad ugu hiiliyeen baa uun la kobinayaa. Puntland iyo Soomalyana inta ninka reerkeena qori u qaada gar iyo gardaraba aan u calan wadleyneynio dawladnimo lama gaarayo.

I can't understand how WE of all people can be xenophobes. We travelled far and wide and experienced first hand racism and xenophobia and then at home we take it on poor people? Sheik Dahir is great Sheikh and I can understand his concerns but where is the Daawah of when you see Munkar you stop by whatever way you can rather than calling a deportation of poor largely muslim Oromos? Are we becoming Saudi Arabia that deports people like animals?

^correction He is quarter Paki as he himself proclaimed. Sadiq is unknown product nevertheless is good for Muslim community who have seen growing islamophobia.

Ma naqaan, adiguse maxaad ugu diidi ma intay yihiin baad taqaan?

Holac, it won't have any effect on Bosaso port for two reasons. Bosaso will always be first choice for the ships and boats to and from middle east due to its proximity to that region. Secondly, Gara'ad port is intended to mainly serve as commercial fishing hub and not export/import. Gara'ad is about 300km from Ethopian border so if the Goldogob custom is opened that means 80 million hungry Amharos to serve fresh fish to.This will increase business activities and prosperity in the region which also have positive impact on Bosaso port.

The problem with Gaas is he promises a lot he can not possibly deliver. I think he was naive to come up with the statement such as "We will not accept 4.5 even if they bring Ban Ki-moon". Being PHD holder with no political experience have something to do with this. Other than that I believe he is very sincere to bring change to Puntland and so far he has delivered great projects, dealt a blow to Alshabab, strengthen security and worked very hard to negotiate new projects for the state.

Xarardheere is controlled by Alshabab for a long time without any one challenging them. Galmudug threatened few times to capture Xarardhere but reality is they are well entrenched there.

Dowlad hub lasiiyo ma joogto. Hubka waxaa ka horeeya inaad ciidan la timaado. Kuwaan AK 47ka gadanaya ma tank bay cafinayaan?

Asad they hit villa Somalia and killed 8 people, 4 from the same family including a policeman who was Omar Abdieadhid's body guard.

As they villa Somalia and killed 8 people, 4 from the same family including a policeman who was Omar Abdieadhid's body guards.

Malistar you remind me of Said Sahafi the former information minster. The American tanks were literally few kilo metres away and he was brieging reporters his side were winning. What NISA you are talking about Alshabab are resurging and getting bolder. Today they fired motors at will to Villa Somalia and eight people including a policeman that worked in the therw got killed.

So what about all other hundreds of suicide bomnbers and Alshabab foot soldiers that caused mayhem and havoc in Mogadishu, where did they come from? which qabiil were they? What about the two men who smuggled and handed the laptop to Borleh? I hear the tall one of the two is from president's clan, so where does he fit in the Somaliland conspiracy? Is not I am defending Somaliland and there might be some truth in it or at least they tolerate Alshabab as long as they are not shooting them. But equally Reer Mogadishu have lot to answer as they produce more Alshabab fighters and colloborators than any other qabiil and I notice when suicide bombers are from them, no mention of qabiil and its just Alshabab factor but one or two Alshabab from somewhere else then the qabiil conspiracy comes in. Why haven't we heard from the people who were behind Lido massacre? Where did they come from?

Lol@Kings sirens kulahaa Wallahi waa iga qosliseen you bloody racists. Guys get your facts right. He is not Reer Boqor but could be related to them from mother side, who knows. Galbeedi, this guy was the governer of Bari for the last five years and was only replaced few months ago by Abdiwali. If it is true that his grievances are legit did they just came about now and did not exist in the last five years. That is why many of his clansmen are not buying his BS and right now he is on the run. I believe some disgruntled former officers are targetting Abdiwali hiding behind sub-clan grievances just becouse he is professor and new comer to the Puntland affairs to get concessions for their own personal gain. Otherwise they wouldn't dare doing sometging like this to Faroole or Abdullah Yusuf. Bosaso and Bari in general are seeing a lot of development including the runway, port refurbishment, and mini-highways. There are a lot of money going into this developments and the most people to benefit whether directly or indirectly are the Reer Baris who own most businesses and the real estate in Bosaso. Why these developnents are going to Bosaso one may ask and not to other areas in Puntland. It is because the importance of Bsaso to the whole of Puntland economy and some one to come and claim the city for his clan is being foolish. Take away the port, the airport, livestock Market and business community from other regions, Bosaso will be inhabitable desert derelict like Berbera.

Diinta in lagu jees jeeso waa dambi wayn marka waxaad idinka utaqaanaan ugly waa someone else's beauty. Sxbayaal Xabad a self proclaimed atheist yuusan baxar idin galin. As Alshabaab are brainwashed there are kids brainwashed by agnostics and atheists who do not have any leg to stand except being obnoxious. We Somalis we are already badly divided on clan lines we can't afford to be divided idealogically so these people and Alshavab are danger to our existence as Umad.

Asad for your information Puntland MPs are shared based on districts and not on clan lines, alas the districts may still use clan to share power from one term to onother. For example the Bari region which is the biggest and most populous has the most number of MPs representing them closely followed by Sanaag. So although no one man one vote but still each member of MP know which district he represent and selected from.

Why People seem to want only Kenyans out and not Ethopians, Ugandans, Burumdians and the rest? Kenyans are the weakest of them all and in my opinion the least worry. Somalis can take Kenya on in any day any time. Their soldiers are poorly trained poorly equiped and they not known to be warriors as you would say of for example the Ethopians. Marka sheekadu waa oohinta orgiga ka wayn. Timir lafbaa ku jirta. Some people don't seem to have got over the Jubaland debacle. Hence, Alshabaab is not a priority. Alshabab are more dangerous than Kenya is and as long as we sympathise with them and lose focus these other countries will continuee dominating us.

Oromos are persecuted group in Ethopia due to their sheer numbers the TPLF regime does not trust them hence they enjoy little freedom and rights in Ethopia. Many of them do not consider themselves Ethopians and rightly so. Majority of Oromos are muslims and our brothers we should help them however we can. We should not spew hatred especially when you are Somali. Maahmaahdii Somalida ahay nin guri dhalo ah ku jira dhagax ma tuuro. Somali people have travelled far and wide and we complain couple of thousand Oromos?

Xabad waxaan u gartay hadalkaaga sideeda aamuska ah gabdhaga halagu silciyo oo yaan kor loo sheeg sheegin ceebta jirta. Macnaha tabar kale ma jirtee Aamuska ku dadaal

Gooni, kolba taa kama jirto Sacuudiga wadamada kale sida Emirate waan maqlay arab ma ogola. Pakistan iyo Afghanistan waa dad dhaqan adag naagahooda marka horeba kaligood masoo baxaan iskabaa daa inay wadan kale ka booseeyaan. Somali balo waxaan ku dhignay gabadha aabaheed baa gaari/dooni/diyaarad saaraya isagoon waxay mudandoonto ogayn, waa arin dadyoowga muslimka aan uga duwanahay. Sxbyaal aniga hadaan heli karo gabar Somaliyeed maalin dal aan dalkeeda ahayn joog na dheheen, laakiin kumanaanka usoo silcaya xuquuq la'aanta la exploit gareenayo waxaa dhaanta inay si sharciya ku yimaadaan oo xuquuqdooda laga warqabo waa meeshaan ka iri weeso ma noo dhowrna.

Xabad inay futo ufoorariyaan sheekadu ma joogto, subax Allah keeno bay ufoorariyaan iyagoo boqolaal ah sharci darana ah hadii la kufsado xataa kama hadli karaan. Marka saaxiib nin weeso u dhowrantahay ha iska dhigin waxaa laga yaabaa nin gabdho ilmo adeer taa ah ay Yemen soo maraan jidka lagu kufsado hadana guryaha wixii la rabo lagu sameeyo maxaad u qabankartaa hadaba? Mar aan tagay ninbaa wuxuu iiga sheekeeyay sida gabdhaha Somaliyed markay kasoo baxayaan Yemen Pills ilmaha dila horay usoo qaateen si aysan uur uyeelan. Marka arintan haday jirto dowladu waxay ku yaraynkartaa dhibta tahriibka ka qabsata iyo inay xuquuq ay ku yeeshaan guryaha dhexdeeda ah. inta vadan abuse nimanka ma aha waa naagaha arabta ah oo aan naxriisan maxaa yeelay waxay ogyihiin inaysan xuquuq lahayn. Tan Somali kaliya guryo kama shaqayso Indonesian, masaari, morokaan iyo philiphinese waa ka shaqeeyaan si sharci oo waliba safaaradahooda ayaa udooda oo ilaaliya xaqooda

Thousands of somali girls already work in Saudi Arabia illegally and in appaling conditions without any rights, add that the So if this means that they will be legal and can claim their rights then be it. You can talk about somali pride and all that but there is no pride in work especially when you are from poor country.

Kkkk habaar miyey sheekadii taktay. Nichilas Kay tell the world that Somalia is no longer failed state and here came our friend and tell us Somalia and reer bari ( notice how he singled them out) are dead finished. Only if words could kill! In my opinion Somaliland is in worse shape than Somalia and Puntland. If any one was following the Somaliland politics you would see how low and clanish is everything Somaliland. Their goverment can not even re-open cement factory that belonged to the Somali state becouse clan x does not approve it where Abdiwali Gaas tamed his reer Mudug lot and forced yhem out the state properties whether people liked or not! Then who is collapsing?

Gaas has his own short comings one of it being the economy and hence affecting the budgeted revenues and in turn paying the civil service and soldiers on time. But let's put things in perspective. The economy was deteriorating already in the last year of Farole's tenure due to lack of Somali Shilling notes hence dollar rocketing to the roof affecting low income people to survive on less. This was further excercipated when big cash cow individuals and businesses moved money from Puntland to Mogadishu to invest in high rocketing property market. Also lack of good infrastructure such as airports and seaports made it hard for Puntland to compete with the likes of Bernera port, Hair ga is airport and Mogadishu air as sea ports. That's why he's always banging about infrastructure and these should improve when big infrastructure projects materialise. All in all I think he has done well given the circumstances he was working under. Also security has improved tremendously in the last last two years. He weaken Alshabab's hold in Puntland and chased them out from Galgala town. There are a lot of changes taking place but he might not be the one sees their fruition in the time left for him.
