The Proposed House for Former President: Is it a Gratitude or Cover-up?

[Deeq A.]

After a long-delayed election, Somalia elected has new leadership with a vision of "Soomaali heshiis ah dunidana heshiis la ah," which translates to "Somalis in agreement within themselves and with the world." President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud contrasted himself with the Farmaajo administration, which had tense relations with the Federal Member States and the international community. The discussion now should be about the new leadership, their policies, and giving constructive criticism and advice. Nonetheless, Somali media discourse is dominated by building a house for former President Farmaajo. In this piece, I would like to discuss the proposed home of former President Mohamed Abdullahi Farmaajo, its implications, legality, and suggestions.
