LOOL

I was in Addis Abeba at the time. That was when the regime change taking place and TPLF tanks rolled into the city.

Within weeks we were listening to the first May 18 songs... 

ma waqooyi baa saaka loo wanqalay,

ma walaaci baa laga raystay oo

wado xaqa la maray.

Ma Wiilasheenii ba, noo talinaayo

Waynaada la yidhi

Wehel toosanaan

Waa mahad alee

Warka maanta yimid

Wax ku ool ahaa...

Today marks 29th anniversary of the reclamation of sovereignty of the Republic of Somaliland. 

It is certainly a muted one this 18th of May, all the celebrations and gatherings will not take place. But the spirit of the day will live on, inside your homes and your private properties, you can keep it on and celebrate with your loved ones.

Happy 18th of May.
