Ongeri reveals intrigues behind Somalia's assassination plot STEPHEn MUDIARI | NATION Foreign Affairs Minister Sam Ongeri speaks to journalists upon arrival from Mogadishu at the Wilson Airport in Nairobi on September 12, 2012. By Henry Nyarora Posted Monday, September 17 2012 at 09:24 Foreign Affairs Minister Sam Ongeri has for the first time revealed the power struggles in Somalia that led to last week's attempted assassination of President-elect Hassan Sheikh Mahmud. The Minister over the weekend recounted how an attempt by former President Sheikh Sharif to solicit Kenya's support for re-election failed and which may have prompted the assassination attempt. The Islamist militant group Al-Shabaab has since claimed responsibility for the attack. “Before the elections, Mr Sharif had talked with me for one and half hours, requesting that Kenya support him capture the presidency. But I told him that Kenya did not want to support any candidate as it wanted a free and fair elections in order to restore peace among Somali people which they had missed for the last 22 years,” Prof Ongeri said. The minister said he was surprised when he saw the former President Sharif at Aljazeera Palace Hotel soon after the incident occurred and who appeared unshaken by what had happened. “Although Al-Shabaab has accepted responsibility of the incident, I don’t know whether it was by coincident that Sharif came to the scene soon event as we held our breath waiting in the room for a bomb to be detonated,” Prof Ongeri said. The Minister was accompanied with MPs Adan Keynan, Fred Kapondi, Mohamed Affey, Hussein Ali, his personal assistant Jackson Nyagaka and bodyguard a Mr Njagi. “I believe that God delayed our arrival in Mogadishu for our own safety. There was no meaningful security details in the early hours of the day when we were expected to arrive in the Somali capital since there was peace and calm,” Prof Ongeri recounted. When he arrived with his delegation at 1pm, three hours late, he narrated, they attempted to use ordinary vehicles due to the assurance of calm. But Kenya's envoy to Somali Mr Wafula Wamunyinyi and General Karanja cautioned them against the move. Share This Story “When you have a high value target, you cannot afford to go in an ordinary vehicle,” Prof Ongeri remembers Mr Wamunyi’s warning. The minister said they were whisked to Aljazeera Palace Hotel in Armoured Personnel to shield them from possible explosives. At the hotel, he said he had hardly read President Kibaki's goodwill message to President Hassan when he heard gun shots outside the hotel. “Although I continued reading the goodwill message to President Hassan, who remained composed despite heavy gunshots from outside the hotel, I saw the Kenyan delegation that included Kenyan journalists taking cover under tables,” Prof Ongeri said. He added: “I prayed and I remained calm for I knew God will not allow us perish as we were out for a good course.” The worst came when one of attackers was shot and the explosives he carried detonated, spraying his flesh and blood to the windows where their meeting was going on. The Minister said the four attackers had powerful explosives, one created a big depression at the entrance of the hotel's compound after detonation. “But we thank God that explosives of one of the attackers who was shot near the entrance of the hotel did not go off as it could have brought down the whole building,” Prof Ongeri added. He was addressing his Nyaribari Masaba constituents in his Omoyo rural home in Borabu District on Sunday.

President Hasan of Somalia ready for Somaliland talks Resumption Sunday, 16 September 2012 07:57 President Hasan wnats talks resumption MOGADISHU (Somalilandsun) – The internationally sanctioned talks between Somaliland and Somalia have termed as appropriate. Then newly elected president of Somalia Hassan Sheikh Mahmud said this during an interview with the VOA in Mogadishu where he also informed that security was his priority number one. Stressing on the importance of the talks between the countries, President Hassan Sheikh Mahmud, who replaces sheikh Sharif said that his administration would re-engage Somaliland as a follow to the past and successful discussions held with the outgoing TFG government. "Although am all for unity, Somaliland's sovereignty should not be belittled thus forced to rejoin the south but enticed through friendly means" Said president Hasan Perceived as a political moderate the academic president congratulated the governments of Somaliland and the outgoing TFG for initiating the talks between the former united nations that have not seen eye to eye in 21 years. He said that the talks suspended by Somaliland authorities awaiting a TFG replacement government would resume as soon as possible for the sake of establishing humane rapport as well as for the greater good of the Horn of Africa region. Incoming Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mahmud, the target of an assassination attempt earlier this week, says restoring security will be his first order of business once he officially assumes office Sunday. Mahmud spoke Saturday to VOA from the country's heavily fortified presidential palace in Mogadishu where He arrived, three days early, under heavy security hours after three suicide bombers attacked a Mogadishu hotel where he was residing. At least four people, including all three bombers, were killed. The first Somali President selected in Somalia soil in 21 years said his first presidential priority would be to determine why so many young Somali men and women have sought to join the outlawed al-Shabaab militant group. He said his administration would then try to create what he called "opportunities for them to defect from [the] al-Shabaab group." He also called on militants to leave Somalia voluntarily as soon as possible. Speaking of the assassination attempt, Mr. Mahmud said he knew he would be facing serious risks when he decided to seek the presidency. Nevertheless, he said the attack would not deter him from upcoming duties. Mahmud, elected September 10, takes over a country that has not had a stable central government since 1991. However, hopes for peace and stability are rising. Al-Shabaab has lost most of its major strongholds to African Union and Somali government forces, and peace has largely returned to Mogadishu, which endured years of almost daily fighting. Last month, Somali leaders adopted a new constitution and installed a new federal parliament and speaker.

Somaliland is not part of Somalia so whether Somalias leaders give the people of somaliland one seat in their parliament or 20 it doesnt matter it doesnt change anything the MPs that are supposed to rep Somaliland according to ur constitution. And if they set foot in Somaliland get arrested. As for .5 clan how do you want to solve their issue.5 is not one clan its a group of smaller clans and they seem to be happy with their place in Somalia.

Jacpher;870247 wrote: No what I am saying is stop picking and choosing parts of the formula you agree with. Either accept it in its entirety or refuse it all together. You can't say Somaliland is not part of that formula which you and I know it is, and accept the 0.5 part to suggest some Somalis are lower than the other. Whether you agree or disagree the political status of SL, a point out of the 4.5 is allocated for Somaliland. This part you oppose but you accept the point five part. Why? I have nothing against the 4.5 Jacpher he people in Somalia are not against 4.5

Jacpher;870241 wrote: ^Yeah in that formula, Somaliland is part of that 4.5 Somalia but you conveniently ignore that one. Why? Somaliland is not part of Somalia so they cant be part of that system. But jacpher that system is how the system operates in Somalias parliament hate it or love it thats the system.

The Prime minister most likely will be from the Puntland clan as it looks like with a less smaller chance being from the gedo and cabuudwaaq community

Horta is it technically possible for the President to appoint a person from the .5 clan for the PM position?
