Djibouti a failing dictatorship.

[Old_Observer]

galbeedi,

I completely agree with you that Ghelleh is overstaying and whenever dictators over stay they destroy society and country.

Ghelleh is also multiplying enemies rather than multiplying friends as his uncle and himself used to do, that means too much corrupt people around him.

Ghelleh is also taking sides easily among the people around him who are gossiping corrupt individuals, instead of summarily excluding them or sitting them together in one room and tell them to say what they say behind each other.

Government officials are becoming too attached to different countries some to France, some to China..etc even some to America.


As for accusations this person was killed, this person was tortured or kidnaped..etc take it with some grain of salt as westerners say, especially from Africa. From what I know, so far Ghelleh has not gone to other dictators modus operandi.

He still conducts elders meetings. Has not completely gone to elite dictators yet.

The protests are getting more and more serious, a Khartoum 2.0? Time will tell.

There are only two people's in Djibouti that mattered and now some "foreigners" also gaining place, mostly Ethiopian leaning.

Among Somalis and Afar:
Those with Ghelleh Afar prefer France Somalis prefer Everybody including new ones Chinese, Japanese who ever can afford.
Those against Ghelleh the Afar still prefer France and the Somalis prefer Arab.

Ethiopia would never have majority support and even reasonable support. The only way Ethiopia can effect change in Djibouti is violent demonstrators paid by Arabs and America taken from Semera and Jigjiga with some soldiers from Eritrea.

I hope Djibouti stays safe. We don't want that country to go up in flames. Also  if iog dies he has a son who will take over.

The best hope is for IOG to peacefully plan for power transfer by overseeing an open democratic election take place.

We should respect anytime people can take to the streets and demonstrate against the authorities. In other Somali cities, bullets would be flying shortly after a demo. Djibout is little more progressive I say. 

Ghelleh must free political prisoners if he wants to survive. I don't want Djbouti to fall into chaos and become a totally failed state like Somalia, so Ghelleh must be very careful not to overplay his hand. He should not push people to the brink.

The story has some legs, but has nothing to do with democracy or peace.

It has conflagration of interests:

America (Yamamoto is the senior man for the area who is on the Hillary, Biden...camp and totally hateful of Ghelleh). UAE and their shoe shining Egyptians for obvious reasons. Eritrea for personal reasons as well as UAE and America reasons.

Ethiopia is caught in a pinch. Anything goes wrong in Djibouti and Ethiopia is dead. It will not be able to put together the Somalis as did Menelik or King Haileslassie/Mengistu to secure the road. The way Meles did is impossible now with America China heated conflict and UAE/Egypt roaming instead of Turkish/Qatar.

The prisoner can now not be released. Its beyond that point.

Hopefully Ghelleh will be able to contact some influential elders and arrest those that are obviously and openly bragging as having support of other countries.
