Militarily, I doubt Galnus will win, they lost big time there because they are a minority in gaalkacyo 10-15% maximum and that's the reality. But this war wasn't about a silly road in Garsoor, this was a clear plot by the federal govt to get Puntland to recognize Galnus and sit down with them and the only way they could manage to do that is start a war over a road knowing it will lead to peace talks. They did win politically though, they got recognized by Puntland. If I was Gaas I would've said to the PM, we will not sit with Galmudug and we will sign our side of the peace agreement with you as the PM and you can do the same with them. That is a more politically savvy move but gaas is useless, the worst leader puntland has ever had.

Naalistar, I think you should focus on helping these poor people that are dying out there due to exposure and the elements. https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=1081301218560277 Btw those people your showing as captives are mere civilians, but it's well known that you go around fighting civilians, you wouldn't dare fight with soldiers.

Salax, what I am suprised about hargeisa and mogadishu is why dont they build more because they dont really need to invest anything into their port, airports because it was already built and completed by siyad barre. Puntland however is focussing on building it's infrastructure because this region was known as gaari-wa an isolated region that's why we need to focus on infrastructure like roads, airports,ports if that wasn't holding us back, I think we would've been booming alot more then we are now.

Puntland Armed forces currently stationed in Baraxlay, you can listen to the audio here from the deputy governor of Mudug. I like how Puntland forces are not killing civilians like those cowards in Baraxlay do. They can't fight man to man with troops, they fight civilians. Puntland is advising all galnus civilians to return and get treated at Puntland hospitals because they are dying out there due to the exposure and lack of water. http://puntlandone.com/war-deg-deg-ahdhegayso-dawladda-puntland-oo-sheegtay-inay-gaalkacyo-sifaysay-khasaaraha-dhashay/

Baraxlay is tonight under Puntland control, Galnus has also lost Hobyo the other day to shabab and ahlul sunnah controls dhusamareeb, so where does this phantom state operate? its not even a constitutional regional state, its only 1.5 states and must be dismantled immediately.

There is no Galmudug, its galnus it comprises one and half regions and is unconstitutional to become a federal member state. This the current map of galnus, not even 20% of galkacyo

I don't think they're will be an election in 2016. They going to say the current 2016 consultations has come to a stalemate with baydhabo and galmudug folks wanting 4.5 and jubaland and puntland wanting district elections. Hassan sheikh will ask for a term extension untill 2018 which gives gaas an opportunity to run for president in mogadishu because he is gone in january 2019 and sharmarke will then leave and come to puntland and run for president since it's qardho folks to rule. Really sad if things play out like this because I can't stand sharmarke or gaas they are both terrible.

Che, I Dont have much hope the Bosaso let alone the Garacad port will be extended. I will only believe it when I see it, I think it's just a storyline by the Gaas government. If it was being extended wouldn't we see agreement details of the company extending the port and what their share of the taxes will be.

libaax, I am not sure what the next phase of the airport is, but from what I heard, they saying that the run-way will be extended to 3.4 kilometers because right now the first phase only completes the runway to 2.4 kilometers. I have heard the second phase includes a new terminal also but we will wait and see. Che, I think there is a drainage system, it will be an all weather airport. Makhir university already started.

Check out the Bosaso airport apron where the planes park, it's massive concrete
