Markaa 11 xildhibaan Aqalka Sare maalin cad qaadaneysay in 2016, Soomaalida kalena iska samreysay with sideed xildhibaanno, taas waaku qanacsaneyd miyaa? Mideeda kale kala saar metalaada Muqdisho/Banaadir iyo maqaamka Banaadir. Kan waa metalaad xildhibaanno laga soo dooranaayo Muqdisho inay kuraas ku yeeshaan Aqalka Sare. Golaha Shacabka xildhibaanno maba laga siin, which I think is not fair as well. Maqaamka Muqdisho is another whole issue, taas haddana ma taagna doodda. And no, it has nothing to do with madaxweyne Farmaajo. Those selected/elected in gobolka Banaadir as representatives of Aqalka Sare will be elected/selected by who they are representing same way it will happen in every gobol. Meeshaan muran ma yaalo, those 13 seats representing Banaadir was passed by baarlamaanka and if Aqalka Sare passes and signed into law by the president, then it is a law. And as I said those 13 seats will be divided into 5.0 oo ah shanta beelood.

Popular Ethiopian singer Hachalu Hundess shot dead in Addis Ababa Hachalu Hundessa, an ethnic Oromo, was killed in the city's Gelan Condominiums area late on Monday, police said. A popular Ethiopian musician has been shot dead in the country's capital, Addis Ababa, local media reported, quoting police. He was 36. Hachalu Hundessa, an ethnic Oromo also known as Haacaaluu Hundeessaa, was shot in the city's Gelan Condominiums area late on Monday, Addis Ababa's police commissioner said. Geta Argaw said police had arrested several suspects, state-affiliated Fana broadcaster reported on Tuesday. Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed expressed his condolences, saying Ethiopia had "lost a precious life". "I express my deep condolences for those of us who are in deep sorrow since the news of the death of the shining young Artist Hachalu Hundesa," Fana reported the prime minister as saying. "We are expecting full investigation reports of this evil act." "Let us express our condolences by keeping ourselves safe and preventing further crime," Abiy said. Ethiopians on social media, including the country's ambassador to Washington, expressed their shock at the killing of the popular musician. On Tuesday, youths enraged by the killing of the musician, who was known for his protest songs, burned tyres during demonstrations in Addis Ababa. Hachalu, a former political prisoner, rose to prominence during prolonged anti-government protests, which propelled Abiy, a fellow Oromo, into office in 2018. Oromo ethnic group, which have historically faced discrimination, led the the mass protests. Abiy's rise to power ended decades of political dominance by ethnic Tigray leaders in this multi-ethnic African nation. His rule has ushered in greater political and economic freedoms in what had long been one of the continent's most repressive states. He was awarded the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize for ending conflict with neighbouring Eritrea and his reforms. But the rise in political activism has also led to an increase in unrest in a country made up of more than 80 ethnic groups. Abiy's rule has been frequently challenged by local powerbrokers demanding more access to land, power and resources. His pan-Ethiopian politics have sparked a backlash from some elements of his own Oromo powerbase, spearheaded by a media magnate, Jawar Mohammed. "They did not just kill Hachalu. They shot at the heart of the Oromo Nation, once again !!...You can kill us, all of us, you can never ever stop us!! NEVER !!" Jawar posted on his Facebook page on Tuesday. Clashes between police and Jawar's supporters killed at least 78 people in October last year after the government tried to withdraw Jawar's security detail. Elections due this year have been postponed until next year due to COVID-19 in a deal agreed with the major opposition parties. Xigasho

It was asked to baarlamaanka by Mahad Maxamed Salaad and co. Instead of toddobo additional xildhibaanno to Aqalka Sare, he asked it to be raised to 13 xildhibaanno, ostensibly to divide it 4.5 or 5.0 equation. That is why vast majority of xildhibaanno approved it. Marka 13 xildhibaanka siyaadada ah shan meelood ayaa loo qeybsanaayaa ee maxa laga diidaa? Haddii toddobadii xildhibaan laga dhigi lahaa muranka ma dhamaadeen oo kuwa badan diidanaa in lagu qeybsado shan meelood. Reer Waqooyi Bari waa inay samraan sidee Soomaalida kale gobollada kale ka soo jeedo u samreen markii iyaga iyo kuwa Waqooyi Galbeed ka soo jeedo loogu dhigay 11 xildhibaan for no reason, population or gobol used. That was not divided for population-wise nor for each gobol of the original 18 gobollo. Soomaalida kale by getting sideed xildhibaano oo Aqalka Sare ah candhuuftooda ayee laqday that time in 2016 in order hore loogu socdo. This is against Axdiga Qaranka for each gobol of the 18 gobollo should have an equal representation ayaa ku qoran. Haddee leeyihiin Axdiga Qaranka ee kumeelgaarka ah kuma qorno, Axdiga Qaranka waxa kale ku qoran in laba gobol iyo ka badan maamul goboleed sameysan karaan taasna meesha kama dhicin. Laba gobol iyo nus ama hal gobol iyo nus maamul goboleed sameysan karaan kuma qorno. Isla Axdigaan Qaran markii la sameynaaye sanadkii 2012 waxaa ku qornaa in Aqalka Sare la dhiso isla sanadkaas 2012. Taasna ma dhicin oo Aqalka Sare 2016 la dhisay. Afar sano bilaa sharci Aqalka Sare la'aan ah dowladdii Shariifka shaqeyneysay.

Duale's exit leaves huge gap in Somali politics Duale has been the community’s most high-ranking political leader in the national government and his exit, analysts say, has left a massive gap. Observers say Duale might cross over and team up with the Building Bridges Initiative crusaders. The departure of Garissa Township MP Aden Duale as National Assembly Majority leader is a staggering blow to the Somali community’s influence in national politics. And it hasn't helped Deputy President William Ruto. Duale has been the community’s highest ranking leader in national government and his purge, analysts say, has left a massive gap. Because of his clout and political persona, Duale is the patron of the Northern Kenya leaders forum and the chairman of the Northeastern Parliamentary Group. With the clamour to amend the Constitution likely to dominate the country's political agenda in the next few weeks, it will be interesting to watch which direction Duale the heavyweight will take. Though he was sacked for being a powerful ally of DP Ruto, his talents and efficiency in pushing the government's agenda are well known. Though known for his acerbic tongue, he delivered a gracious departure speech and he's far from out of the picture. Duale previously maintained he will support a referendum to introduce a parliamentary system of government to end what he described as “post-presidential election chaos". Observers say it's likely Duale will cross over and team up with the Building Bridges Initiative crusaders to push for a referendum to amend the Constitution. This means he might emerge as vocal proponent of the BBI but still push for the interests of Northern Kenya and minority communities. Should he assume a higher profile in the push for constitutional review, then Duale would remain a force to reckon with as the 2022 dynamics unfold. Former Mandera Senator Billow Kerrow was the first to describe the political vacuum and dismay in the Somali community after Duale’s purge. “Duale's removal wasn't unexpected but it was cowardly,” Kerrow said, calling his sacking inhumane and unappreciative of the Somali community’s support. “He deserved better, not brute ingratitude. The bigger picture is a painful loss for Muslims and the Somalis as he was the highest ranking in government,” Kerrow said. Duale has been DP Ruto’s most ardent foot soldier, with a venomous tongue that kept some of the DP’s adversaries at bay, earning himself the title of Sycophant Number One. The three-time MP, who was first elected as Dujis MP in 2007 on the ODM ticket, commands massive clout among the Somali community. At the same time, the Garissa Township MP also chairs the Pastoralists Parliamentary Group Association, stretching his influence to at least seven counties. He is expected to firm up his grip on the expansive pastoralist region as he positions himself ahead of the 2022 polls. President Uhuru Kenyatta sent the vocal lawmaker to the guillotine on Monday during a Jubilee Parliamentary Group Meeting. The move could reduce but not eliminate his political influence across the Northeastern region. It could complicate Ruto’s bid to consolidate the region. Duale, accused by critics of being being a Jubilee sycophant, enabled the party to turn the tables against former Prime Minister Raila Odinga who until 2007 had a firm grip on the region. Political analyst and USIU professor of History and International Relations Macharia Munene reckoned that Duale’s personality is unmatched among his peers from the Somali community. “Duale is gifted and unique, he is a politician who was destined for greater things,” he said, calling his removal a blow to both the community and to Ruto. “While Kenyans will miss his personality, his exit is a major setback to the political movement that he supports,” Munene said. Observers argue Duale’s controversial politics and his fearless approach in the defence of Somali and Muslim communities’ rights cemented his position as their virtual spokesman. His rise to the political high table had given the Somali people a special place in the national government in the last seven years. Indicative of his role in Somali politics, he rallied the Northeastern region behind the United Republican Party ahead of the 2013 General Election. Following a bitter falling out with Raila, Duale joined forces with Ruto who was then the Eldoret North MP, to form URP. Duale had just been sacked as assistant minister for Livestock in the coalition government. Ruto too was dismissed. URP later went ahead to form the government after the general election following a political pact with President Uhuru’s TNA party. After dumping Raila, Duale became a key URP lieutenant in Northern Kenya and turned the tables on ODM. During the 2013 polls, Ruto's URP swept most of the parliamentary seats in the entire pastoralist region, gains largely attributed to Duale's efforts. He was then rewarded with the position of Leader of the Majority in the National Assembly, an influential position that dramatically elevated his national profile. The bullish lawmaker now may find it useful to watch his caustic tongue and reconsider his acerbic attacks on rival politicians as he maps out his own path ahead of 2022. Former lawmaker Abdikadir Aden, told the Star that Duale’s exit was not just a blow to the Somali community but also a set back to the pastoralist nation’s push for a space in national politics. “Duale had earned himself a place in national politics because of his hard work and fearless support for Jubilee. His ouster at a time when there is a push to amend the Constitution gives us some fears,” the lawmaker said. He said, however, that leaders from the region would speak in one voice on what they want in the constitution to address marginalisation and historic injustices. “We are clear as the leadership from this region, we will agree and take a common position on BBI so it is beneficial to our people,” he noted. Some senior political leaders from Northeastern in Parliament include Garissa Senator Yusuf Haji, who is the chairperson of the BBI task force, which is working on national reforms. National Assembly Minority Whip and Suna East MP Junet Mohamed has roots in the region, despite having been elected in Migori county. Others are Eldas MP Aden Keynan and Kamkunji MP Yusuf Hassan. Keynan was named Jubilee coalition joint secretary to appease the Northeastern region. Haji had recently led a team of elders and MPs from the region in appealing to the President to spare Duale, saying his position was given as reward for their support for Jubilee in the last two elections. Former National Assembly Deputy Speaker Farah Maalim, a critic of Duale, termed the years his rival served as Majority leader a "waste.” “The National Assembly will redeem its lost glory. In eight short years Parliament lost its glory. Redeem its glory now,” Maalim said as he mocked Duale’s tenure. Xigasho

11-year-old boy wins US$1,000 in Somali-language COVID-19 video competition The winners of a two-month Somali-language COVID-19 video competition were finally revealed online today, with the US$1,000 first prize going to a short video on some of the best ways to avoid infection produced by a schoolboy in Qardho, Puntland and his older sister. Abdijabar Dahir and his sister made the video while he was stuck at home after COVID-19 forced local schools to close. Instead of going outside to play with friends – and so risk bringing the virus back to his elderly grandparents at home – Abdijabar decided to make this video to show other children how to stay safe. Organized by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the competition was launched so that people of all ages could use their creative talents to help spread accurate COVID-19 information online, both within Somalia and among Somali-speaking communities abroad. Entrants were asked to send short videos on how to prevent the disease, based on up-to-date information provided on the country’s first Somali-language COVID-19 website: www.kahortagacorona.gov.so. More than 20 videos were submitted from across Somalia. They were assessed by three celebrity judges – cartoonist Amin Amir, musician Aar Maanta and poet Naima Abwaan Qorane – based on the number of views and shares as well as their artistic flair. “I was impressed by the creativity and the energy of young people who took part in this competition,” said Naima Abwaan Qorane. “Although, the competition has now finished, more people are watching the videos and benefiting from the health messages they carry. It has generated important online discussion and we should continue to spread the word until we defeat this deadly virus.” “Thanks to the entries in this competition, which have been seen by almost 1 million people on our Facebook page alone, UNDP has been able to reach new audiences with potentially life-saving advice on COVID-19,” said Jocelyn Mason, Resident Representative for UNDP Somalia. “Our fantastic judges helped push the message out even further and we are very grateful for their support throughout.” The winner of the US$1,000 first prize was a young boy and his siblings who showed how people can protect themselves from the virus through simple actions like washing hands with soap for 20 seconds. The video also taught people how to produce homemade facemasks. The second prize of UD$500 was won by the story of a couple who had to cancel their wedding due to the coronavirus, while third place and US$300 went to a movie on how the virus can disproportionately affect disabled people.
