For those who supported this idiotic terrorist named Atom for clan reasons, and now are looking for ways to save their faces among the people. I suggest to first acknowledging your transgression on the citizens of Puntland (for they were terrorized day in and day out by Atom and his men) as well as the State of Puntland. We are humans, and sometimes we do make mistakes and get carried away. So Nassir, Xudeedi, just give up AND take your losses while you can. Second, stop this nonsense called Western Bari, where is it on any map this so called western Bari? And please how so your clan alone supposedly inhabit the Western Bari, if such thing exists. Honestly, this is my personal opinion, and should reflect only me. For how long now did we hear the Makahiris have been creating a makahiir state, more appropriately how many years has passed since its creation? Where is this Makahiir state? If it has not yet been created, what are the obstacles and who is against it? Look it is simple. There is many constituencies in Puntland, none of them have been forced to take part of Puntland, and if your constituency wishes to not be part of Puntland, then so be it I say. But know that not even an iota of loss will Puntland incur whether it’s economical, politically or else. Also, it will be unfair to the real constituencies that collect tax revenues for the state, to share the allocation of developmental projects with constituencies who contribute ZERO to the state other than bad mouth the state day in and day out…….salaam

Cry me a river kid, nobody cares about your sub-clan or clan for that sake. This Atom guy will be dealt with like it or not, this is a matter of national security. Second.,,,,,we, the rest puntlanders, careless if you and your kinsmen seize being part of Puntland. We don't collect any taxes from any of your poor little regions, and that desert empty land's value was to use it politically to counter the secessionist agenda. And Bosaso, you can live there peacefully, but the day you bring chaos and mayhem,,,,,that day will be your last day in Bosaso..Salaam

Mr Somalia, with all due respect....go cry to your mother....what you say or think doesnt change reality on the ground...As for Cowke and Thankful...LOL...everyone knows Cadde was the real loser,,,get over it..election season is 4 yrs away mate... The situation on the ground is as exepected....1st,,,Dont forget that this is an internal issue between these so called Darwish...and they need to figure out...who is their leader..whether it is Xaabsade or Xagletosiye,,,that is upto them,,,, Remembers it was not that long ago that those Mudug boys led by Xiif Cali Taar got massacred and the remaining re-routed by these so called Darwish...bunch of confused fellas I would add to that....so hell with this divided Darwish clan......until a united front of SSC....led them bari boys send their boys... P.S. However, Puntland have been arming these SSC boys and now putting its army into the Frontline as we speak. The gameplan was to isolate Xaabsade and the bunch from the clan..and create a very strong animosity between Sland...and the Howd boys. Hence, this so called switching sides by the SSC politicians becomes impossible.

My take on this issue: This PIS shuffle has long been overdue, and PIS needs to brought under Puntland's Authority at all cost. However, I disagree with the taken approach by Faroole. Faroole has made this into a conflict, currently there is an entire battalion on standby to attack the PIS base in Bosaso. Horta, I thought Faroole was done with this childish behavior, and his past is well noted. He lost my respect in away, a huge section of the population see him as settling scores with the previous regime, and that is not away for a President to behave. . The solution to this issue lays in Nairobi, Faroole needs to go there and seal the deal with the CIA and U.S. officials themselves. By the way, I want the rest of Puntlanders take on this developing story. That said, people want to make this a Garowe vs Qardho issue, if so why change Osman Diano, and replace him with Biinge, from the same subclan. It’s not about clan, it all boils down to politics… Faroole is cleaning the field from Cadde Muse’s cronies and replacing them with Faroole’s cronies….Here is the catch, Osman Diano did a very good job protecting Puntland’s population, and interest from the cowards in Xamar, so why change him with someone new at this critical moment.

Runta Puntland iyo Raamsiga Baxaaya Madaxweynaha Dawladda Puntland Dr.Cabdiraxmaan Maxamed Faroole ayaa safar aan horey loo sii shaacin todobaadkan ku tegay gobolada Karkaar iyo Bari, safarka madaxweynaha ayaa dadka u kuurgala siyaasadda waxa ay ku tilmaameen mid uu ku meelmarinaayo isbedel uu dhawaan madaxweynuhu sameeyay, isbedelkaas oo saameyn ku yeeshay qaarkamid ah gobolada, degmooyinka, wasaaradaha iyo agaasimayaasha sare. Booqashadii Qardho Madaxweynaha iyo wefdigiisa ayaa booqasho kedis ah ku tegay xarunta gobolka Karkaar ee Qardho, safarkaas ayaa madaxweynuhu u sheegay Gudoomiyaha Gobolka Karkaar Cabdiqafaar Maxamed Adam in uu habeen joogaayo magaalada Qardho, gudoomiyaha ayaa ka cudur daartey arintaas waxaana uu sheegay in aysan u diyaar garoobin ee hal maalin safarka ugu dib dhigo, Madaxweynuhu waa ku adkeystey in uu habeen Qardho joogaayo isla subaxa uu soo baxaayey, kadib waxaa maamulku isla markiiba guda galay isu diyaarinta soo dhaweynta Madaxweynaha. Mid kamid ah dadkii soo dhaweeyay oo aan khadka telefonka kuwada xiriirney ayaa ii sheegay in madaxweynaha ay si wanaagsan u soo dhaweeyeen laakiin ay la yaabeen waxyaabaha qaarkood, taas oo ay kamid tahay gawaarida dagaalka ee faraha badan kuwaas oo ay ka mid yihiin kuwa lidka diyaaradaha oo dhawr ah umana muuqan ciidan ah ilaalada Madaxweynaha, waxaana si kaftan ah ugu iri mid kamid ah wefdiga ma Oktober ayaa la marayaa maya ee waa dhoolatus ayuu yiri, Madaxweyne Faroole ayaa noqonaaya madaxweynihii u horeeyay ee ciidamo intaas le’eg ay safarkiisa gelbiyaan xili dalku nabad yahay. Kulankii Odoyaasha Qardho Madaxweynaha ayaa kulan la qaatey odoyaasha Qardho, waxa ay ka wada hadleen xaaladda dalka, amaanka iyo horumarka gobolka waxa ay u gudbiyeen waxyaabo ay doonayaan in uu ka qabto Gobolka, Madaxweynaha ayaa u sheegay odoyaasha in uu isbedel sameeyay kaas oo si wanaagsan u hirgalay marka laga reebo Cismaan Cabdullaahi oo isagana aan ku rajo weynahay in ay dhamaato ayuu yiri, madaxweynaha ayaa odoyaasha u sheegay in hay’adda PIS ay tahay hay’ad uu isagu xukumo mana ahan mid Maraykan xukumo. Kadib odoyaasha ayaa isu keenay Madaxweynihii hore Cadde Muuse iyo Dr.Faroole si loo xaliyo mugdi soo kala dhexgalay taas oo inta badan uu tirsanaayey Dr.Faroole, arintaas oo aan dhamaan ayey u balameen in dib la isaga soo noqdo. Booqashadii Bosaso Madaxweynaha iyo wefdigiisi ayaa gaarey magaalada Bosaso Maalinimadii Isniinta (22-03-2010), waxaana soo dhaweeyay dadweyne faro badan iyo masuuliyiin ka tirsan Puntland, si lamid ah soo dhaweyntii Qardho ayaa dadku is weydiiyeen Dhafoorqiiqyada lidka diyaaraduhu saaran yahay ma ilaalada madaxweynaha mise wax kalaa jira halka dadka qaarkii ay tiro ugu dhaqaaqeen gawaarida dagaalka ee safarka Madaxweynaha ka mid ah. Muhimada Safarka Madaxweynaha Muhimada Safarka madaxweynaha ayaa ah dhawr arimood kuwaas oo ah arimo la xiriira Amaanka Bosaso oo muddooyinkii la soo dhaafey khalkhal ku jirey iyo sidii uu xal ugu heli lahaa khilaafka ka dhashey xilka qaadis lagu sameeyay Agaasimaha Hay’adda Sirdoonka Puntland Cismaan Cabdullaahi Maxamuud, taas oo agaasimuhu dhegaha ka xirtey, masuulka cusub ee loo magacaabey Col.Cali Yusuf Maxamed (Biingo) ayaa isagu ku sugnaa madaxtooyada mana jirin wax shaqo ah oo uu ka bilaabey. Marka laga yimaado wararka dadku isla dhex-jibaaxayaan ayaa muuqata in arintan ay sal dhigatay halkii la filaayey taas oo ah Saraakiil Maraykan ah oo Puntland u yimid arintaas darteed, waxaana habeenadii la soo dhaafey dhexmaray madaxweynaha iyo saraakiishaas wadahadal aan war laga soo saarin, warar aan la xaqiijin ayaa sheegaya in Madaxweynaha iyo saraakiishaas ay isku fahmi waayeen qaabka ay noqoneyso mustaqbalka hay’adda PIS-tu. Dr.Faroole ayaa sheegay hadda ka hor maruu booqday dalka Maraykanka iyo Kenya in ay isla afgarteen saraakiisha maraykanka ee afrikada bari in hay’adda PIS ay tahay hay’ad hoostimaada madaxtooyada uuna doonaayo in uu wax ka baddalo tasna ay la qaateen, halka Agaasimihii uu xilka ka qaadey Cismaan Cabdullaahi (Diyaano) uu ku adkeystey in aan loo marin waddo sax ah habka xilka looga qaaday. Safarka Madaxweynaha ee Itoobiya – Kenya Warar aan la xaqiijin oo ka soo baxaya ilo ku dhaw madaxweyanaha ayaa sheegaya in madaxweynuhu safar deg deg ah ugu baxaayo dalalka Itoobiya iyo Kenya halkaas oo loogu yeeray wadatashi, ku saabsan xaaladihii u danbeeyay ee Gobolka, shirarka lagu casumay Madaxweynaha ayaa ah kuwo la doonaayo in lagu xaliyo is fahamwaaga saraakiisha Maraykanka ah ee ku sugan Bosaso kuwaas oo u tegay halkaas xalinta is maandhaafka ka dhashey xilka qaadista. Xiriirka Puntland iyo Maraykanka Xiriirka Puntland ay la leedahay Maraykanka ayaa mid heer gobol ah waxaana xoogiisu yaala wadamada dersika sida Kenya, Itoobiya iyo Jabuuti, maraykanku waxyaabaha ugu waaweyn ee maamulka ay kala xiriiri jireen waa heshiiska loo yaqaano la dagaalanka argagixisada iyo ka hortagooda heshiiskaas oo la sheego in uu Puntland u saxiixay Madaxweynihii hore ee Puntland Col.Cabdullaahi Yusuf Axmed, heshiiskaas kadib Puntland waxa ay heshay in tababbaro loo siiyo hay’adda sirdoonka ee PIS isla markaana ay hesho agab iyo mushar joogto ah, inkasta oo ay laba lixaadsatey sadexdii sano ee la soo dhaafey, sidoo kale Maraykanka ayaa Puntland kala xiriira arimaha Burcad-badeeda kuwaasoo la rumeysan yahay in qaar badan oo kamid ah ay ka hawlgalaan meelo kamid ah Puntland. Dr.Faroole dan uguma jirto in khilaaf uu soo kala dhexgalo maamulkiisa iyo Saraakiisha Afrikada Bari u qaabilsan Maraykanka kuwaas oo ah kuwa ay dawladda Maraykanku uga danbeyso xaaladda Soomaaliya, isla markaana ay kaalmooyinka ku bixiyaan talooyinkooda. Madaxweynaha Puntland ayaa sanadkii la soo dhaafey bishii April 4 waxa uu wareegto ku soo saarey in hay’adda PIS ay isaga guuraan xarunta Laanta Hawada, wareegtada ayaa lanbarkeedu ahaa 12, waxaana la siiyey hay’addu in ay haystaan muddo 7 cisho ah, hay’addu kama guurin halkii ay deganayd waxaana ka soo wareegay muddo sanad ah, sidoo kale madaxweynaha ayaa wareegto uu soo saaray xilka uga qaaday agaasimaha hay’addaas Cismaan Cabdullaahi (Diyaano) taas oo soo baxdey 12 Maarso lanbarkeeduna ahaa 27, waxaa ka soo wareegtey 13 maalmood mana jirto xal laga gaaray arintaas. Arintan ayaa waxgaradka Puntland ku baaqeen in loo maareeyo si xilkasnimo leh isla markaasna laga dheeraado in xalka laga doono wax khatar gelin kara jiritaanka Puntland. Cumar Siciid.

Gheele T., your full of non-senss, Nobody cares about the killers family, the killers will be hunted down, and executed hitler style. Btw, Geesey is said to have orchestrated this whole mafia style assasination, and Faroole should make sure justice is served here..which means Geesey himself, and the four other criminals all need to be executed. Anything less than will be a disaster. Duke I hear you bro, but it's because the killers family are willing to turn the killers rather been hunted. ...The fact is the family has failed miserable to contain their criminals,,as well as are the obstacle everytime when these criminals need to face justice...Enough is enough, the family must be tamed, as well as contained..no more Nabadoon and Odeey...They put road blocks in the middle of the city when they feel like it, Break into prisons when they like it, kill police officers when they feel like it, murder elders when they feel like, and NOW KILL A MINISTER..FOR WHAT??? This is not the reserve area, and we should not allow this continue anylonger.....

No body blames the clans of Galmudug for this , however all steps need to be taken, including closer cooperation between all the clans of Galkacyu district. Adeer, what is Galmudug?? War no cooperation will take place with anyone, we need to take our security into our own hands...no more clan this, subclan that, blah blah...that didn't work, infact it failed miserably...Galkacyo needs to be tamed...with check points in the reserve area, and southern galkacyo...

We are waiting to see the real change from this so called Faroole. Offcourse, the death of Seefta is a tragedy, but many more have been assasinated before him....I am so infuriated by this ongoing, never ending predicament walaal. If another assasination occurs, I feel like my head will explode seriously yo..lol.

Lol, irrational kumalaho. How is it irrational??? The security of this city has been a problem for along time. It didn't start with this late assination, nor it will end with this. Remember, not long ago, there has been over 9 assasinations of top business man, elders and government officials in Puntland. So if your telling us that it is simply a reaction among brethens, and has nothing to do with the terrorist operating in the South..then your are simply delusional.. The fact is southern Galkacyo is a safe heaven for criminals due to the security vacuum there...same goes for the reserve area. And they must be dealt with there, or else we will face the consquence in the Northern and throught Puntland. That said, I think the outcome from this brutal assasination will be fruitful,,since nobody is safe anymore..

Seriously, the blame is upon the locals, and the city admins in all levels. The reserve area has been the problem for quite sometime in this city... Since there is no law&order in that area...so criminals either escape to the South or the reserve area...hence We need security check points in the border of Ethiopia, and strong military presence in Southern Galkacyo ( most of the Al-Shabab hit mans enter and depart from there . Aside, the city needs to be tamed, and house to house checks is not enough..

Your scenario is one in which the central government is on top while it grants local autonomy to districts in certain area's and ultimately has the power to disband a regional administration if it acts against the national interest of Somalia. The states interest, and the Federal government's interest are parallel at times, and are not sometimes. Infact there are aligned in most areas of the security, foreign policy, and long-term economic development...howeve r, the States should not be looked down nor undermine..like a centralist government disregards it's districts ...incase the interests don't align, then a consesus and compromise should be reached...not..and I repeat the states interests should not be neglected ...don't even mention disband..(USC mentality type thinking is a disaster bro) opps..I meant the african mentality..if the internal shareholders/politic al parties/states have a concern regarding a policy or a law in place..then the path to solving it is not crashing it..as Meiji calls it disband,,,it's rather discussing and compromising until the interests align again...and only in a weak central system with powerful states such things occur.. Horta, I am tired of your lame line of clan states...Except the old Mogadisho, and few big cities, everywhere else in somalia is clan based mate, hence any democratic government will reflect that like it or not.. An example of how this will change rapidly: Bosaso was a small town in the early 90's, and now it has a population close to a million mate. 2/3 of the population are not the historical locals..There is huge neighbourhoods made of just Oromos, ppl from Bay& Bakool, ppl from Ogandenia, ppl from the Capital area, and ppl from the NW, offcourse not to mention the nearby kinsmen....... So since somalis can leave anywhere in Somalia in any framework of government, it is very possible that in less than 60 years that ***** clan may not be the majority in Puntland anylonger..just like Bosaso mate... people will be driven by the desire to live a good life and make a good living...anyhwhere that allows them to fulfill that...they will go....not everywhere is Xamaar kid..So what is there to fear, Ohh yea,,Xamar will not have monopoly anylonger,,or perhaps the brothers in Galgaduud will be marginalized in a Federal System.

Indeed this is an interesting debate, Centralism VS Federalism has been the long awaited issue facing the emerging Republic of Somali. It was also the key factor that caused the 2 decade political deadlock within the Ruling/Elite politicians of the various regions in Somalia. That said, I am for and support a Federal System. However, the term federalism is too abstract and vague, since it doesn't really draw the line between the rights of the States and the rights of the Federal Government. And it's different from a country to a country....hence our Federal systems can be customed to satisfies the different political parties in the country..rather than a copy paste model.. The federalism I support is a weak central government and powerful states. This doesn't endanger our national security as Meiji says it... 1. in fact it stregthens our nation security...for the primary reason that it will take much consensus between states for important decision such as going to a war, or sanctioning a country, and meddling in other countries affairs...and etc...Rather than, a group of elites endangering/destroyi ng the whole country by unilateraly declaring a war, sactioning a nation and etc...."these are the failures of a centralism system. 2. It will create the much needed competition for development in rural area, regions, villages, as well as decentralizes the economy...It will allow the regions population to choose their destiny as fit,..This is a key in making our economy efficient...unlike the russian system..where the Moscow, and in that part region being quite developed, whereas the remaining of the country is underdeveloped...Par tnering with foreign nations, and attracting foreign investment should be the State's Rights...and Not Federal...and yeah offcourse, that's if we are in good relation...In that past, in Somalia, and many central systems try to force/manipulate foreign investment by either re-directing their investment to other area in the country or even at times area belonging to the government...Here is another valid concern... 3. The natural resources should be fully controlled by the Federal Government...(in terms of contracts can only be assigned by them), however that State should have some priviledges over all of the others states..1/3 of the wealth should go to the State for the much needed economic development as well as creating other economic opportunities...that said, Since some states will be wealthier than others, again it is upon the business community, and the population to pursue economic development by requesting federal assistance or attracting investors..HENCE the idea of wealth equality within the States can not be achieved. Benadir's wealth can never be equal to Bakool's wealth.. there is lots of lines that needs to be drawn here and there..but remember Somalia's was the first country in Africa where a peaceful election took place, and a smooth transtion of power. So who said we have to be like the remaining of Africa stuck with centralism, followed by coups, election fraud, misuse of power and corruption. L
