Bro i think you are confused, why would you interpret opposition to Farmaajos illegitimate power grab as being synonymous with supporting this people? I want Xassan shekh and Shariif Axmed to stay as history, C/raxman kicked out of politics, Madobe and Indhacadde in prison, and Farmaajo like Xassan and Shariif to become history. My hope is in electing a new and better president.

C/raxman c/shakur greatest qaain in somali politics, he is poisoning and tarnishing any legitimate and peaceful opposition against Farmajoos power grab. He and Axmed Madoobe, the two biggest traitors in somalia who should be in prison or exiled.

Only totalitarian governments shutdown internet, have you ever seen democratic states do that? is the government suppose to copy al-shabbab? the only group in somalia who regularly shuts/take down internet in their areas

This rag tag militas have no chance, their foolishness will only strengthen Farmajos grip after he crushes them using the national army

Expect worse than this in the coming 2 years

Shekadaan shalay ayaan ogaay iney tahay sheeko lugu marinhabaabinaayo dadka maskaxda yaryar, qofka siyaasadaha caalamka aad ula socda ayaa si fiican u og ina taaktikadaan meela badan laga isticmaalo, siiba wadamada dictatorshipka ah. As i said to fellow somalis dont be to naive, Farmaajo is not the saint you think he is, maybe he is beter than some but he definitively is not the best for Somalia, i hope he as soon as posible becomes history like Shekh Shariif and Xassan shekh.

As i have said before Farmaajo and his palls have mastered the art of manipulation and scapegoating(marinhabaabin). Yesterday i was planing to call a relative who works in Mogadishu airport to ask him about this stunt, because i already knew since long time ago that this was not something unusual, every week millions of dollar(and jewelry) land or depart from Mogadishu airport, mainly by somali entrepreneurs traveling from/to UAE,Asia,Kenya. Not only that i personal knew/seen ordinary people in Europe taking bundles of $ with them to somalia. So people please bee more specious and vigilant dont take everything you see and hear as a fact/evidence, allot of manipulation/propaganda is going on on both side from Farmajo's administration and the opposition.

Kenneth Roth is the executive director of Human Rights Watch, one of the world's leading human right advocate. He is one of the few westerners who constantly criticize US and EU for their double standars and dealings. Her is some of his articles -End Europe’s Backing of Egypt’s Repression -US Should Shun Autocrats, Re-Embrace Human Rights -Olympic Snow Shouldn't Cover China's Repression -Stopping the Authoritarian Rot in Europe Kenneth Roth's rader(like many of us) has spotted a new dictator in the making.

You can immediately spot a manipulative person miles i way, Farmajo seems to have mastered this art very well. You can easily spot when he is telling a lie or half truth with his rapid eye blinknings. Any way 1 goal for Farmaajo and 0 for democracy. Farmaajos next two years plan 1) To be reelected att any cost, if needed through manipulation, scapegoating, hijack S/land and Banadir delegates to tilt the election to his favor, fill the election board with NISA/loyalist, the last two are two of the main reasons why negotiations failed. 2) To subdue Jubaland and make his tribe kingmakers, the man has putt 50% of somali national force in Gedo to biff his mini tribe while shabaab are freely rooming and killing inside/outside mogadishu while also parts of bakool are starving becouse of blockade by shabab.

One man one vote in 24 month? kkkk thats a day dreaming. Another great marinhbaabin for ignorant people, what is the best way to extend your presidency? by telling the poeple "hey we will have one man one vote in 2 years" while fully knowing that it is logistically impossible in that short time and beside that why didnt he lift a finger in last 4 years to make/start "one man one vote" possible? that alone shows the disingenuousness of the claim. But hey all the politically uneducated pundits at home and abroad are cheering in joy, that is the entire goal with the "one man one vote" PR, to get the public support for an extension.

As someone who is very familiar with the Ciise-Canfar tribal conflict i can for certainty tel you that it is the Issa with the help of Djiboute who where for the most part always the expansionist aggressor. Allot of land in Djiboute and Ethipia (Shiniile/Sitti area) where taken from Afar people in last 100 year. You have to know that their political wing were always double faced, it was the only tribe in Ethiopia that did not join the other somali tribes in support of somali forces in the 77 war. Recently Adan Farah who is their top politician in Ethiopia said in his facebook account that Somali State is big enough to be a couple of separate killi/states. He hinted loudly to something many people knew and that is their ultimate secret plot/goal(concocted in djibuti) to make their gobol (Sitti) a separate state/killi. If you check the maps where the latest conflict happened it will be obvious it was not the Afars who made the incursion to Somali state rather the Isa made the incursion to Afar territory. This was probably part of a calculated expansion by their politicians, maybe they have the feeling that Ethiopia may soon collapse as a united country and they have to now start to take as much slice of land as possible for their future independent state.

Everything is allowed in politics in a democracy as long as it is done in peaceful and civilized way.

Miskiin sense you take news from Amin Arts did you forget it was Hassan Shekh who started the court process? her is your news source

Xassan Kheyre kaliya ayaa hadlkiisa la qaadan kara, Abdishakuur dhinac hanaga maro. Ninka peaceful mudaharaad ka baqaaya xabadna ridaaya ayaaba ugu liita, wa laciifnimo tii ugu darneed

No i dont support him, but there is no place for the likes of idhacadde. As long as the opposition is doing things peacefully a i support them. But its seem the warlord idhacade have muddied the situation, they should run away from him and his militias as far as possible as to not taint their image.

But sadly this will play well in Farmajos hand who had big difficulties in hijacking the election process by filling the election board members with people from NISA and hijacking woqooyi delegates, now he can sweep the floor with the main opposition who where acting immature and foolish.

Sxb why are you conflating this issue with 92, two currency's, xaafad barmuda etc? that in itself is nicnicleys. So you are a nostalgist who longs for a strong rule like Siayd barre? lets kill democracy and hijack elections so that we can have the strong and powerful somalia it used to be? I was as naiva as you in the first years with regards to Farmajo, but it become obvious to me and many others that he is playing the same card as many other power hungry dictators, he is no much better that Madoobe and Abdishakuur, another though who will do everything necessary to be reelected

This is really disgusting, now he also using Somali National TV as his private propaganda machine? This man is destroying the democratic experiment of this nation, two presidents have handed the power peacefully without misusing national institutions. Her is a list of some of Farmaajos criminal tactics, same tactic used by the likes of presidents of Uganda, Djibouti, Ethiopia, Egypt etc 1) He used NISA for personal use against president candidates, raiding some of their homes and killing guards, preventing Sh shariif and Sh Xassan to flight out of Mogadishu to Baladweyn, after backlash letting them go, but then shutting down flight radar so that they can not land and hade to return, and many other insidents 2) Hijacking election board(NIEC) by filling them with people from NISA and his close circle. 3) Trying to hijack Somaliland delegates to fill with his loyalist with the help of infamous thug Mahdi Guled , so that they can vote for him. Thankfully Abdi Hashi was not letting them do this effortless, he was fighting this thuggery day and night but sadly some naive uninformed people thought/think he is selfish (without knowing the reality of what is happening) 4) Last minute and unconstitutionally giving Banadir 13 senate, as professor Samatar said it beautifully (He is not doing this for the love of Banadir, he is doing this to rape them(banadir) and the election), becouse it is not the people or the elders/leaders in Banadir who will nominate but it is FARMAAJO himself who will nominate (How naive can you be not to see what his intentions?). 5) Carving for himself "Gedo" as his personal enclave with out it being under any state jurisdiction (Jubba land?). We all may hate Madobe and want to get rid of him but do you really think Farmaajo is doing this for the good of Gedo and Jubaland or maybe he is doing this for tribal resons? Are we the somali people ready for another mini Siyad Barre? or the likes of Ismail Omar Guelleh, El-Sisi and Yoweri Museveni? who use state apparatus to destroy democracy and fare elections, and rape the nation and its people?

This is a sign that ignorance is widespread in somalia, in one place he is concerned about declining trade between Somali galbeed and bari but in the other hand he wants to make restrictions when it comes to trade between south and bari? yes that would be very profitable for puntland loool. Where did this guy get his education?

MoonLight1;844767 wrote: Biggest danger to Somalis are Somalis themselves, hate, envy, and selfishness are what is destroying Somalis in Somali galbeed or Somalia proper, once we are united Oromos or others can not penetrate us. But while we are eating each other Somali galbeed will be lost slowly and NFD is already seeing a population shift where big cities like Garissa is becoming more of a Kikuyu city. Just look at Diri Dawa of Somali Galbeed where the Somali ethnics are only 24.3% contrary to 20 years ago where they were the majority. Wikipedia.org That information is not accurate, SPDP got 74 seats in 16 kebele in 2008 election out off 189 seats in all 24 kebele thats 40% of the seats. The somalis in Dire Dawa make between 40-60% but its very difficult to get exact numbers because its multilingual city, the group that dominate the politics in dire dawa hail from Gur-gura clan(largest group in Shiniile/Errer)) they have most importent seats(Speaker of the Council, Justice/Security and Legal Affairs, City Manager etc.) and they are multi lingual in some area they only speak oromo language. That’s why any census will not be accurate in this case, the census in wikipedia is probably based on language.

any one who is deep into puntland politics would say that Puntland administration is already at war with Al-shabab, and beside me this is something which has been said many times by Faroole and his men. And i would says Puntland is loosing other wise why would Faroole ask for Amisom forces to be stationed in puntland??? maybe you understand fighting and war as only face to face faighting? what is happening in puntland is low intense guerilla warfare using assassinations and explosive devices to target Farooles administration, and i can say from the information we have it seems puntland is standing on its last leg and if it doesn't get help from amisom or some one else it will fall. Maybe the only thing holding from its collapse is Ahlul sunna in Galgaduud and they are doomed to fall soon. The time when Ahlul sunna used to attack Ceelbuur is gone long time ago now shabab is dancing around Dhusamareeb going in and out as they wish (it happened 3 times).
