Hargeisa (HOL) - A well-known Somali trader has accused the first family of Djibouti of robbing his properties in Djibouti after refused to give them equity in his businesses.

In a statement, Ahmed Osman Guelleh, a multimillion entrepreneur said that the Djibouti government imposed sanctions on him and shut down six of his ten companies.
The statement pointed out that President Ismail Omar Guelleh`s inner circle grabbed four of his businesses based in Djibouti.

The companies handed over to the first families include Multivision, Djibouti Container Freight station, 360 Stevedoring and Jib Events.

“The first family of Djibouti government has been trying to get a share from the business of Ahmed. After he rejected the proposal, the government attacked Ahmed`s companies, some were given to the individuals from the first family while others were closed down,” the statement reads in part.

The Djibouti government has reportedly contacted Somaliland authorities to prosecute him. Osman is accused of being a traitor and is wanted in Djibouti.

The move comes barely three days after elders in Somaliland warned the government against extraditing a well-known trader to Djibouti government.

In a press conference, the clan elders urged the president of Somaliland, Muse Bihi Abdi to bar the arrest and plans to hand over the trader to the government of Djibouti.

I think Muuse Biixi made a huge mistake here. He should have said like most responsible government that , " Since the issue is in the courts , as a president I can not comment". simple as that.

the government spokesman had openly showed the anger and hubris of Muuse biixi. THey do not even have a counselor for legal matters to  write a letter that is addressing a legal matter. 

THis Muuse Biiixi guy needs help. Our friends here like Suldaanka and others should seek a job there and help the president.

He called someone that isn;t convicted in Somaliland courts a thief. " Somaliland meel lacagta la soo dhaco lagula soo gabado ma' ahan" that is the language of the street. Muuse need to hire some legal minds to help address these issues. Besides, where is the so called chief of staff INa Cali Bile?

That is correct. The Somaliland region admin exposed itself as partial in the case of Ahmed Osman.
