Now Somalia will develop insha Allah now your hero Sharif's are gone.. You are forgetting that the Somaliland affairs concerning the UK will be connected to the Embassy in Ethiopia and the Political office recently opened will deal with the Somaliland corporation issues in the SL capital. While the Nairobi based Embassy for Somalia will run the affairs of Somalia from Kenya that's how its organized u have to deal with it.

Yes an Ambassador for Somalia which is very good good but this is a Political office which will also help facilitate the Somaliland development corporation that was launched earlier this year. How ever the British Government their embassy for Somalia is based in Kenya Nairobi matt baugh is the Ambassador for Somalia based Kenya. While the British Embassy in addis ababa maintans a full range of Bilateral relations with the Somaliland govt in Hargeysa. Thats how the Brits organized the situation of Somaliland and Somalia.

SRSG Augustine Mahiga shakes hands with Somali President-elect Hassan Sheikh Mohamud during a courtesy visit. Photo: UNPOS Tuesday, September 11, 2012 United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon today welcomed the selection of a new president for Somalia, the final step in the war-torn East African nation’s political transition process. Hassan Sheikh Mohamud was selected as President of the Federal Republic of Somalia on Monday, following a vote which involved two rounds of balloting in the country’s so-called New Federal Parliament in the capital, Mogadishu. “The selection of the new President brings an end to the eight-year political transition. The Secretary-General congratulates the New Federal Parliament and its Speaker for the peaceful and orderly conduct of the process,” Mr. Ban’s spokesperson said in a statement “He also pays tribute to all the signatories of the Roadmap for Ending the Transition for the important role they have played to bring the process to a successful conclusion,” the spokesperson added, while also noting that the UN chief congratulates Mr. Sheikh Mohamud on his selection. After decades of warfare, Somalia has been undergoing a peace and national reconciliation process, with the country's transitional governing arrangements coming to an end with the selection of a president – a key and final part of the so-called Roadmap for Ending the Transition, which Somali authorities had been implementing. Monday’s selection marks the culmination of a series of landmark steps contained in the Roadmap. These include the adoption of Somalia’s provisional constitution, the establishment of the New Federal Parliament and the appointment of that body’s Speaker. “The Secretary-General encourages the new President to move expeditiously, to appoint an inclusive, accountable Government that can begin the work of peacebuilding in the country,” Mr. Ban’s spokespersonsaid. “He urges Somali and international actors alike to pledge their continued support.” He added that the UN chief looks forward to the upcoming high-level meeting on Somalia in the margins of the General Assembly later this month, which will be “an opportunity for Somalia’s new leadership to consolidate the partnership with the international community.” The Secretary-General also thanked his Special Representative for Somalia, Augustine P. Mahiga, and the staff of the UN Political Office for Somalia (UNPOS), as well as the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) and other stakeholders for their “tireless and dedicated work” in support of the peace process in Somalia. Earlier Tuesday, Mr. Mahiga and his deputy paid a courtesy visit on President Sheikh Mohamud in Mogadishu, congratulating him and pledging to support the new Somali Government. According to an UNPOS news release, they also “paid tribute to the integrity and quality of the process, which was both representative and transparent,” and President Sheikh Mohamud indicated that he was looking forward to work with the United Nations. In a statement on Monday night, Mr. Mahiga said while much remains to be done in the war-torn country, Somalis can be proud of the transition process that culminated in the selection of a new president. “The transition is over – Somalia must now focus on stabilization, reconciliation and building sustainable and accountable institutions of governance capable of providing services to its people,” the Special Representative said. He added, “We salute all candidates regardless of the outcome. I call on the winners to be magnanimous in victory, the losers to be gracious in defeat and for all to lead Somalia forward to a brighter day. All Somalis must now reconcile for the good of the nation at this remarkable moment in the country's history.” Until last year, most of Mogadishu, was, for several years, riven by a fluid frontline dividing the two sides – Al Shabaab fighters and Government troops, with the latter supported by the UN-backed AMISOM forces. Displaced by fighting and drought elsewhere in the country, some 184,000 people have sought humanitarian relief in the city. Since the Al Shabaab withdrawal from the capital's central parts in August last year, the frontlines have been pushed back to the city's surrounding area. However, the use of roadside bombs, grenades and suicide bombers still take place, as do armed clashes. Since late May, AMISOM, Government troops and their allies pushed into the Afgooye corridor, outside of Mogadishu, and also gained control of the town of Balad, located within an important agricultural area near the capital.

But lets say you are right, do you think if that was a bad choice, it should be repeated again? They have no real power and they are just being used for the better cause the same way Cabdilahi Yusuf did only this time there are no xabashis involved and constant killings in Xamar so the situation this time is much better. The warlords live now by the rules of the Somali government that's the future. The Islamic courts union was loved by the people of Mogadishu except the warlords hated them because they lost their power and ofcourse Puntland hated the ICU to. But Alshabaab is hated by the people of Mogadishu the people of Puntland the people of Galmudug and Hiiraan etc. Different agenda's different leaders different times same warlords.

They were castrated cleaned from Mogadishu after 16 years they were totally removed from the capital they were brought back by the Ethiopians and Abdilahi Yusuf to fill the vacuum because they didn't had a plan for Mogadishu other than fighting the ICU. When the Tigrayan tanks captured Mogadishu they needed so called officials people who ran the daily affairs in Mogadishu on behalf of them and the warlords were used.Why was it such a noble thing to do back than, And today its the most despicable treasonous act of the universe come on son wa inagi.

The warlords were all defeated they were brought back by Cabdilahi Yusuf and his Ethiopian overlords the Islamic courts union (ICU) cleaned them from Somalia the likes of Qeybdid Maxamad dhere Muse suudi Barre hiiraale etc etc. The fact that u justify that u can use them partly when it suits ur interest but others are not allowed to use them, to you're knowledge Sh sharif or sakin are not allowed to use them to achieve their political objectives. How does that make u sound Mr Somalia?

He is winning i can feel it.

So its wrong if sh sharif uses these guys but its perfectly normal that Cabdilahi Yusuf used all the warlords in Somalia to be in power:D Still galmudug is not a different country its ur next door neighbor whom u share the same country and city with.

^^:D:D abdiweli is doing everything to be in the final round.
