BBC and VOA Battle for Audience—and Employees When Ahmed Hassan Awke and Abdisalam Herari moved their iconic radio personalities from the BBC Somali Service to the newly rekindled VOA Somali Service, the world of Somali media seemed to be up on its head, and the BBC appeared to be teetering—some even said diminishing. That's until the last few weeks, when the BBC, in a classic tit-for-tat action, plucked two leading journalists from the VOA: Abdirahman Aynte and Mohamed Haji Hussien (Shiino). The latter is slated to join the BBC in few weeks, but has already resigned from the VOA. Aynte, a long time editor of Hiiraan Online, has already joined the BBC in February. By all accounts, the trade off is both tactical and strategic. Tactical because both Aynte and Shiino are the new generation of Somali media and have shown remarkable energy for creativity. Strategic because Shiino and Aynte and are young, the former being in his mid 30's, and the latter being in his late 20's. Short of a major detour, the two are likely to be a fix on the BBC for decades to come. Aynte, if you don't know, is easily Somalia's next Raghe Omar. A journalist by training, he has worked for local newspapers in Minnesota and appeared CNN, MSNBC, NPR, not to mention his articulate and regular analysis on Minnesota Public Radio. Shiino, also from Minnesota, was the long time anchor of the Somali TV in Minneapolis, where he helped that program become a formidable show above all those clan-based shows. At the VOA, he was the towering voice who interviewed Somali leaders and even Dr. Jendayi Frazer, the U.S. assistant secretary for African affairs. So, is this a war between Britain and USA, the inseparable allies? To a certain degree, it's a competition for the marketplace of ideas. But at its core, it's a stiff match between the old guard and the new generation in Somali media. Yusuf Garaad, himself a relative young media personality (compared to Awke, Said Ali Musse and Abdullahi Haji) and the head of the BBC Somali Service, has, deliberately or otherwise, uprooted the old guard that dominated the BBC for decades and replaced them with a young, more educated team. By enticing Shiino and Aynte to the crowd, Garaad has reinforced his quest to rid off the dominance of the old, inflexible guard from the ranks of the most popular Somali media. Ironically, it's the VOA that's now off-balance as it celebrates its first year. That said, the VOA still stands on a fair ground that it could refuse to capitulate. Led by two fine editors, Abdirahman Yabarow and Mohamed Haydara, it has taken laudable steps to strengthen its capacity and widen its scope. Unlike those born-again clanists who incorrectly accuse the VOA of being another BBC, I believe that the VOA has made an effort to distinguish its self from the BBC, though it hasn't always been successful. A more legitimate criticism of the VOA is its fervent attempt to embarrass the BBC though Abdullahi Yusuf's mouth, of all people. A few weeks ago, the VOA interviewed Yusuf from his bedside in London, where he unleashed a barrage of sectarian insults against the BBC. Secondly, the VOA continues to broadcast a program called "How democracy works," and another one known as "Americana." The latter might be acceptable if its folded in some informative fashion, but the former is a complete propaganda agenda to "introduce" Somalis on how democracy works. Of all countries, the United States is hardly an authority on this issue, given its history of undermining legitimate democracies from Iran in the 1950's to Latin America, when they don't resemble US's democracy. Suffice to say that the VOA's board of governors encompasses the messenger of America's wicked democracy, Condoleezza Rice, the secretary of state. Ibrahim Sheikh-Nor Ibrahim.sheikhnor@gmail.com

It is all in your head...matey ..all in your head.

There is an element of truth in the story in terms of the rift - but I think the websites having no real sources or facts to get an insight of what the rift is about or how deep it is chose to propagate and take it out of context. Hence undermining completely the truth of the rift and its existence. I dont think Gabre can 'dharbax' C/llahi Yusuf or vice versa. And on the other hand the version peddled by Shabeele.com questions their ability to comprehend the situation when they state that Darwish is on the side of Gabre and against Yeey. Wuxusa ogeyn ayan uu maleyna in ay cida kala hariin. Regardless of how tabloids put it. It is an open secret that there is a rift amid the two individuals big-time. Lets see how it develops it or is solved in the coming days. It is also reported that Geedi has been summoned to Addis by aderkis Menez.

I'm bit certain the delegations visit to the Ministry of Tourism was not solely limited to 'Ecole' - if it was part of the agenda at all.

Is that what we call them now days 'occupying'?

Oppositon groups are stakeholders in Somalia affairs:Somalia PM Nairobi, Kenya (HOL) - The Somalia Prime Minister Nuur Adde once again reiterated his earlier position stating that it is of paramount importance for the government and the opposition groups to reconcile if Somalia is to achieve a lasting peace. The Prime Minister is accompanied by the Miniter for Foreing Affairs Mr. Ali Jama Jangali, his Finance Minister Mr. Ali Hamud and the Somali Ambassador to Kenya Mr. Mohamed Ali Nur (America). The PM was addressing to the Somali intellectuals at the Panari Hotel in Nairobi. The PM stated that the oppositions are part of the wider Somalia community who are stakeholders in Somali affairs and their involvement in the peace process will yield a lasting solution to the Somalia problems. "I see their case because some of them see the government as weak while others are opposing it. They feel they have been excluded in power sharing" said the Prime Minister . Nuur Adde added that there is need to integrate both the radical and the liberal in the peace and reconciliation process to resolve the current stalemate in the peace process and to bring a lasting solution to the torn apart by civil war for over fifteen years. Responding to suggestion proposed by the participants for the immediate withdrawal of the Ethiopians troops, the prime minister said "It will take us within twenty four hours to remove Ethiopians troops out of Somalia but we have to consider the general security vacuum when they leave and how to fill it" said the Prime Minister.". The Prime Mimister also expressed concern over the general humanitarian situation of the country. He said that the majority of the poor are not getting any food aid despite efforts by the government and donor agencies to supply food aid to the internally displaced people in Mogadishu. He feared for humanitarian disaster if the population does not get immediate aid and he appealed to the international community to assist victims of the recent clashes in Mogadishu who are internally displace due to insecurity. The Prime Minister also told the participants about his recent trip to abroad informing them of the willingness by the European Union and the international community for the support of his government and his initiative to reconcile the Somali people. He appealed to Somali elites in Nairobi to fully contribute to the rebuilding of the war-torn and to participate in the road map to peace and the search for a lasting solution to the problems in Somalia. The war-torn Somalia rermain without a central government since the overthrow of the former President Mohamed Siad Bare in 1991. Two previous government established in Carta Djibouti and Nairobi Kenya have not achieved the desired peace and reconciliations. Source: HOL, Feb 16, 200

Kofi Annan and the art of intelligent intervention Jonathan Steele: The Guardian 15/02/08 This is a tale of two neighbours: one on the brink of national disaster, unless mediation can prevent a new wave of ethnic killing; the other already in full-scale collapse, with no functioning government or basic services, and 700,000 people driven from their homes. The first is being watched attentively by foreign governments; the second has dropped off the radar, abandoned by those same governments because it all seems so difficult. I refer to Kenya and Somalia, countries that illustrate the inconsistencies in international policy-making David Miliband failed to reflect in his speech on interventionism this week. Long-standing economic injustices, grievances over land and water, ethnic and clan discrimination, and chronic under-development cannot be corrected by sudden surges of interest and moral fervour. They need decades of subtle care and unflagging attention. Kenya's case is the more hopeful. Kofi Annan, the former UN secretary general, and a team of UN advisers have been talking to both sides in a secluded safari lodge to find a power-sharing formula after December's flawed presidential election. This is intelligent intervention, impartial and headline-avoiding. Foreign governments are taking a back seat. The US initially favoured President Mwai Kibaki on the false grounds that the Kikuyu have always been the best motor for Kenya's progress. It also disliked the fact that Raila Odinga, the opposition leader, condemned the way suspects in the "war on terror" were subject to "extraordinary rendition". But now Washington is standing aside, Britain too is lying low, wary of the charge of neocolonial interference. Whether Annan can get agreement when the talks resume next week remains to be seen. Though the evidence points to Odinga winning the election - his party won two-thirds of the seats in the simultaneous and less riggable parliamentary elections - his side has made the larger concessions. It has dropped its insistence on Kibaki standing down, and its demands for an early re-run of the stolen election, and is considering the Annan proposal for a two-year pause. It has hinted at readiness to split the ministries in a coalition cabinet 50-50. A deal on these lines will be tough for Odinga to sell, especially as Kibaki reneged on a 2002 deal to reduce the power of the presidency and create a prime minister. "Kibaki's problem is with his elite, Odinga's is with his base," as one observer put it this week. Any agreement Annan comes up with must be anchored in law and some form of continuing UN supervision. The anti-Kikuyu anger and killings that swept through parts of the Rift Valley last month could explode again if people feel Odinga has given up too much. So another part of the deal should be a carefully monitored role for the Kenyan army to forestall rioting - a necessary but risky proposition, since the army is poorly trained for crowd control. If Kenya's eruption into violence shocked the world by being unexpected, Somalia's collapse was fully foreseen. As many experts warned, US collusion with Ethiopia a year ago to send Ethiopian troops into Mogadishu to topple the Islamic Courts regime has backfired as badly as the invasion of Iraq. According to reports from UN and other aid workers in Somalia, almost three-quarters of a million people have fled since the Ethiopians arrived. Far from eliminating the Islamic Courts, the invasion attracted waves of new recruits, motivated by resentment at the presence of foreign troops and not just by jihadi ideology. The Ethiopians installed one of the worst Somali warlords as mayor of Mogadishu, allowing him to turn his militia into the police. Most of the capital's people are from a different clan. Resistance has intensified in the past months as the occupation shows no sign of ending, and Islamist insurgents now operate well beyond Mogadishu. Indiscriminate mortaring and machine-gun fire by all sides is said by aid workers to be horrendous, though there are no TV cameras to raise international alarm. Adding to the chaos, insurgent groups are splitting - with the same erosion of discipline and clan rivalry that have divided rebel movements in Darfur. This reduces the chance of holding successful peace talks. Banditry is on the rise with aid workers increasingly targets, as last month's killing of three staff for Médecins sans Frontières demonstrates. MSF has now withdrawn all its international doctors, leaving hospitals without surgeons. Meanwhile, Somalia's Transitional Federal Government (TFG) still sits in the town of Baidoa, with no presence in the capital except for a fortified and symbolic mini-green zone. What little support the TFG had in Mogadishu has disappeared. In November, fighting prompted another 200,000 people to escape into the desert, meaning that more than half the capital's population has left. In a grim reversal of urbanisation, they know it is safer to live outside Mogadishu. Only the poorest and weakest remain inside the ruined city. Here is a catastrophe crying out for sustained and well-funded UN intervention. It would not be a case of overthrowing a government, since there is none. It is not an issue of using "soft power" or sanctions against a bad regime. It is a blatant example of a massive humanitarian emergency, to which the so-called international community is content to turn a blind eye. The TFG was cobbled together by foreign governments, knowing its legitimacy was thin. They tolerated the Ethiopian invasion because Washington wanted it. Now these governments stumble on, bereft of ideas, privately glad that the media do not highlight the issue so their inaction can continue. Under an African Union mandate, Uganda and Burundi have sent a few hundred troops (their airlift paid in part by Britain), but Rwanda pulled out and Nigeria stalled. Now Ban Ki-moon, the UN secretary general, has sent a mission to assess if a more powerful UN force can replace the discredited invaders. But will the big powers back him in urgently alleviating the present misery? Will they recognise their earlier mistake and find a political compromise? Demonising all the Islamists as terror-mongers makes no sense and will not bring peace. Talks between the TFG and the Islamists are the only way out. In Kenya, there is at least mediation and a chance of compromise. In Somalia, there is nothing on offer because the security council got it wrong and has all but given up.

No, not an opposition - but a change in direction.

Thus, not because he is a righteous man nor a man who is touched by the suffering of the people of Mogadishu, ironically from your divide of the Somali clan makeup if not your immediate divide in the sub-clannish sense, but because he can pull a fast one on the old Yey by prostrating himself more lower than the said man. Cajiib sxb your measurement bar does not expand further than 'Barre Hirale' - hence the prostration. Yes you are right I want Nuur Caade to be more closer than Yeey to Zenawi and the powers beyond which made easy for Yeey to conduct his merciless masaccre on the people in Mogadishu. Now if Nuur Caade can reverse that by getting more closer , then let it be. Mida kale isnt it Hirale's closeness to the man that is preventing Yeey from making Mogadishu 2 in Kismayo.Hadey adigu ku shaqeysey in ay ana ii shaqeyso maxaad igu diide.

Originally posted by LANDER: Revive Somalia? Are you folks delusional? This character is still playing the ‘terrorism’ card, has legitimized the Ethiopian invasion, sanctified the CIA’s free hand in Somalia, downplayed the already grave humanitarian crisis and has not indicated any concrete measures to reconcile with the resistance. So am I reading the wrong interview? Newsweek: The United States views Somalia as part of its international war against terrorism. How much of the current violence there now is related to international terror groups, and how much is simply clans or factions fighting for power? Nuur: For some time Somalia was without government and you can imagine that in this environment or vacuum, without enforcement, there is a possibility to see so many things. There was a conception that the deteriorating situation would allow terrorists to find a haven in Somalia. Newsweek: A few U.N. officials have said that Somalia is Africa's worst humanitarian crisis. Is it really that bad? Nuur: I would not say the worst, but definitely we have to admit that up to a certain degree there is a humanitarian crisis, which cannot be denied. You can imagine that if the security situation is so bad, the access for humanitarian operations is hampered. But right now we are witnessing a visible improvement. We will try our best so that the relief operations intended to reach the vulnerable people are not hampered. Yes I think you did you are reading the wrong interview.

Originally posted by Kashafa: Spin your way out of this one, boys. There is nothing to spin in here sxb, unless you seek out the negative aspects of a well formulated text. Nuur Caade did not invite the Ethios into the country nor were the cheerleaders. The reason why the Amaxaros are there does not go further than a factor created by your 'cimamaad' wielding idols. And if you chose the following extracts from the 'interview' your understanding would have been proved wrong. Newsweek: The United States says some of the people responsible for the bombings of the U.S. embassies in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam are still in Somalia right now. Why are they free, and what will it take to capture them? Nuur Caade: I cannot confirm really that they are in Somalia right now. Definitely we are still continuing to fight against the insurgents, against any sort of terrorism. When we reach what we call a complete victory, including reconciliation, I think then we can identify who is here, who is there, who is responsible and so on. Newsweek: Does the TFG hand people suspected of being terrorists over to the United States or to other countries for trial or interrogation? Nuur Caade: No, no, no. Not now. I mean definitely we have in the past. The Somali government is obliged, with regard to terrorism, to be in line with international laws. Newsweek: Under your predecessor, Ali Mohammed Gedi, the TFG arrested the head of the United Nations World Food Program in Somalia. At the time there was a suspicion that the U.N. chief was arrested because the World Food Program was distributing food in some areas that supported the opposition. Nuur Caade: I'm coming from the humanitarian field. And definitely what we believe is that when it comes to the humanitarian operations, the vulnerable people are vulnerable, regardless of their political beliefs, regardless of their religion, regardless of the color, regardless of the clan they belong to. As a humanitarian, I need to support both sides. Newsweek: Some people say Somalia is the third front in the war on terrorism for the United States, after Iraq and Afghanistan. How do you react to that? Nuur Caade: My reaction would not be far from that. I don't know whether [we'd be] fourth or fifth or whatever, but one of the fronts definitely. Not because of the current presence of terrorism but because we have the [possibility] of terrorism. I think the best weapon to combat that is reconciliation. I believe that. Ethiopians are everywhere in the country including in Oodweyne's hood - and they are practically unharmed and welcomed as guest of honor in everywhere else except 1 mile square in Xamar. The victims in the war against the occupiers have largely been children, women, civilians working for the TFG in Xamar and so forth. Hence if the base of your war is to categorically center it around within the known tribal conflict in Somalia - then I fail to understand how the war against the occupiers can be justified by any means. For their withdrawal read the last answer by Nuur Caade in the interview "I think the best weapon to combat that is reconciliation".

Commissioner Louis Michel praises Somali Prime Minister's commitment towards peace and stability European Commission Press Release Wednesday, February 13, 2008 European Commissioner for Development and Humanitarian Aid, Louis Michel, today welcomed the significant progress being made by Somali Prime Minister Nur Adde at restoring peace and stability to his country after almost two decades of conflict. Commissioner Michel welcomed Prime Minister Adde's efforts to move forward the peace and transitional process in Somalia and expressed his support and encouragement for the Prime Minister to lead his country towards full, inclusive, democratic and transparent elections in 2009. Commissioner Michel stated; "I welcome and fully support the efforts of Prime Minister Nur Adde. His government has introduced a new and significant positive dynamic in the Somali political process. He has shown his commitment to an inclusive dialogue with the opposition, civil society, the diaspora and all stakeholders inside and outside Somalia. He is determined to make inter-Somali reconciliation a reality on the ground." He added, "I am very pleased that the Prime Minister has given me his personal commitment to develop a road map for the Transitional period to include a constitution, census and elections. This action has my full support." The EU Country strategy for Somalia, with a proposed allocation from the 10th European Development Fund of more than EUR 254 million for the 2008-13 period, will underpin and support the implementation of the road map. During an hour-long meeting, Commissioner Michel pointed out the need for the African Union Peacekeeping Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) to reach its full potential of 8,000 troops and for the international community to support the development and reform of the Somali security forces. This is a crucial step in order to allow for the withdrawal of foreign troops from Somalia. The EC has provided EUR 15 million contribution from the Africa Peace Facility and EUR 5 million from the Instrument for Stability in support to AMISOM. The Somali political and security crisis has caused a major humanitarian disaster with almost 2 million people, including roughly 1 million 'Internally Displaced Persons' (IDPs), estimated to be in need of humanitarian assistance. Commissioner Michel called on the Somali Prime Minister and the Somali authorities to ensure full respect of human rights and international humanitarian law and to facilitate the voluntary return of displaced populations in the country. He also underlined that the deliberate targeting of aid workers was against all international conventions and only brought further suffering to the Somali people. The European Commission's Humanitarian Aid department (ECHO) provided € 18 million in humanitarian assistance in 2007. It aims to provide at least the same level of assistance in 2008.

Abdullahi Yusuf left London nearly a week ago. His last press interview was with Universal TV - apart from it being sarcastic, calumnious and malice, it was on the other hand words of an octogenarian who has lost grip and influence on catastrophe he instigated. Yeey in simple words was not aware and did not have the least idea of changes going on in Somalia under the PM Nuur Caade. For a start, as apparent in the TV interview, he was not happy at all with the release of the elders led by Axmed Diiriye. What more irritated him was those imprisoned after the fall of the ICU and taken to detention centers in Ethiopia were being released in droves as a reconciliation gesture by Caade. This atmosphere of counting loss and creating a consensus environment is deplorable in his believe. His mentality is either you are subordinate and loyal to him or you are a 'terrorist'. He has yet to comprehend the meaning of the latter. Nevertheless Yeey's antagonism towards the plausible gestures by Nuur Caade seems to have been tamed or even made irrelevant by the powers that be to him - not only that his role as head of the State seems to have incapacitated. He is not anymore in London under medical care - where at least we could have sympathized with him. He is not in his hole in Xamar nor in his fort in Baydhabo. He is in Addis home of his mentors and guide - where he has not uttered anything at all since his arrival about a week ago. Very unoriginal. Since naming the PM he has not contributed anything whether official or unofficial. Makes you wonder what his role has come to - if we are to believe the websites that are loyal to him then Yeey has had four meetings with Zenawi over the five days - on the other sides websites that are not loyal are reporting that he is being asked to stand down as part of a overhaul change in Somalia since he was the leader of the failed attempt to bring back order to Somalia. The Americans who have financed the Ethiopian invasion and continuing occupation - and the EC who are literally bank rolling the TFG see Yeey ( just as it was with Geedi) to be a major obstacle in achieving something in Somalia. This seems to be supported by the inactivity and silence by Yeey - plus his irrational behavior in his last interview leads to this suggestion.

btw...if Yeey was such a character, then I can't imagine why he was the few who opposed uprooting your kind from Galkacyo in the 90's, when USC were crashed to it's knees and were left to ran Baidoba and the capital.. In the region of Mudug, he is considered to be the peace-loving politician, but I guess the fellow terrosist in the capital make him a clan fanatic. I wonder why all of the 275's MP in Kenya elected a clan fanatic over your uncles(Caddow & Abdiqassim) with a landslide margin. Ohhh...ethiopia ethiopia stole the elections to Yeey's favor miyaa huh ? The majority of the people in the capital support Yeey, the poor civilians from the smaller tribes(who form the majority of the southern provinces) have been maimed, robbed, killed, raped, occupied left to right by these clan militias who form the core rebellion,, and Yeey's mission is to bring an end to this madness. Hence Yeey careless about appeasing these looters/terrorists as well as their supporters like you. Yeey doesn't give a damn whether your from clan X or clan Y, the civilians must give up their weapons or else it will be taken by force saxiib, and must abide the law...or else will be sent to prison.

What i don't get is all this destruction and killings are inflicted on Somali people by those very people you support (terrorist), why not attack them instead of the man who is trying to protect the people from them. Bottom line is that Yeey himself is a terrorist and thus should not be negotiated with - sxb what makes you think that you and Yeey and co. are Somali while the others you mentioned are not. As far as negotiation is concerned just watch how Nuur Caade is doing and what he achieves. Yeey is not good at that and should be left with making tantrums in Universal TV. It is common nowadays that Yeey and co. get agitated at the very mention of the word 'negotiation' - simply cause they are not on board.

Originally posted by General Duke: The President spoke well, gave an overview of the issues that faced his government since 2004. It was a good interview, the most objective ever done and I congradulate the Universal TV for their new found objectivity. President Yusuf gave us an insight to the reasons the national governemnt relocated to Jowhar, then Baidoa at its inception. How they tried their best to make a peace deal with the clan courts and the mini war that followed. This was vintage, Yey he looks healthy and a man in control. You have no quality or either dignity hence this for you is a measurement in your standard.

That interview was categorically rubbish at best and humiliation to Yeey and his supporters. It apparently showed that Yeey was a desperate man who was at loss to the new direction the TFG has taken under Nuur Caade. He bragged and sounded confident but lacked the tact to insert any tangible policy other than how he fought here and there which is his usual brag - but lacks the evidence to support his claim. If anything that needed to be understood about Yeey in that interview is that the old octogenarian has lost the plot.

GJ - first Nuur Caade is not going to Asmara. Secondly, yes there is a projected meeting between him and the two Shariifs and other delegates from Asmara. And that is not part of the solution, infact it is paramount. Plus I agree with you that he does not want to meet with Turki,Cayro, Mansoor and co. and that is mutual. But meeting Sheikh Sharif and agreeing on something will subsequetally alienate the Shabab factor. Thus the latter group will have a monumental ,solid and aggresive opposition to their trade mark 'fundementalism'. That is what Nuur Caade is building up to. He is more resolute and visionary the PM, than the bragging president Yeey.

I thought they were meeting in Cairo. Unless Caade is going to Asmara for a holiday.
