Somaliland Warns Foreigners against Taking part in Voter Registration

[cabdi-casse]

Would you be eligible to vote as a Somalilander if you are a Somalilander by birth, but have lived in another country for most of your life?

If so, where can I sign up?

[Sir-Qalbi-Adeyg]

"A Somaliland citizen by birth is anyone whose father[11] is a descendent of persons who resided in the territory of Somaliland on 26 June 1960[12] and before"

 

In other words, so long you're a descendent of sheekh *****, your good to go. And these guys wonder why their pleas/begging for recognition are not taken seriously.

[Jacaylbaro]

It is good you all read the constitution ,,,

 

 

Balayga, you can sign up at Ballayga cas niyow. Come before the registration ends ,,, looool

 

 

Malika, you misunderstood the democracy huuno, I cannot claim to be Djibouti citizen under that democracy can i ??

 

 

Neph, dhulku kaad ogayd maaha ,, wax badan baa kaa dambeeyay.

[Naxar Nugaaleed]

lol, who are these foreigners running to hargeisa to vote?

[RedSea]

Dabcan. If the outcome of these elections are going to effect somaliland, then it sure heck makes alot of sense that only those from the area should be partcipating in it and no one else.

[peasant]

seriously i am surprised. Are there a people who are considering having a sharci from somaliland despite them not belonging there?

 

Forget about someone married to a local girl or someone whose mother is from there and etc.

[winnie]

. A Somaliland citizen by birth is anyone whose father[11] is a descendent of persons who resided in the territory of Somaliland on 26 June 1960[12] and before.

 

so what if a persons grandfathers for numerous generations lived in the territories now ascribed to somaliland but are tribally linked to what is now puntland?

are they somalilanders?

[Jacaylbaro]

Descent or blood ties (jus sanguinis) is the basic foundation of this Law, but it is acknowledged that citizenship can be acquired through conferment. In the 1960 Somaliland Nationality and Citizenship Ordinance, citizenship was accorded to Somalis who were born in the territory of Somaliland or whose fathers (or, in the case of illegitimate children whose mothers) were born in Somaliland – (sections 1 and 2 of the Law)- and so birth (jus soli) was the basis of the law. That would have certainly covered all Somalilanders then, but since then many countries have moved away from citizenship based solely on place of birth. In any case, this Law reflects the desire of Somalilanders to re-assert their distinct identity. It also reflects the reality that being a Somali is finally and correctly seen as a term defining ethnicity and not nationality.

This date was when Somaliland became independent and changed from the British Somaliland Protectorate to the State of Somaliland. It is common for citizenship laws to refer to significant dates relating to a country’s nationhood or independence. See also Article 3(1)(a) and note 19 below as to how the Somaliland clan system makes possible the identification of persons through their lineage.

All Somalilanders (and other Somalis) belong to identifiable clans which are based on male lineage. The clans which lived in the Somaliland Protectorate and, on independence on 26 June 1960, in the new “State of Somaliland” are all well known. The sub clans of each such clan have accredited chiefs (Akils) who know exactly the members of their sub clan. For a detailed study of the Somaliland clanship and lineage system, see I M Lewis (1961) A Pastoral Democracy, reprinted, IAL. In a largely nomadic society with no birth registration system and, so far, no nation-wide identity card system, there is no other comprehensive way of recognising the identity of individuals. The independent National Elections Commission has announced recently that, for electoral purposes, the first nation-wide local government elections will be used as an opportunity to compile the first ever electoral register in independent Somaliland. It should also be noted that

LOL...The plot to sell the people's fingerprints to european immigration officials, in the name of voter registration, has been uncovered. How corrupt can Riyale be, for him to wanna sell the biometrics of the people like that-- what a greedy mongrel!

Diiwaangelinta Doorashooyinka Somaliland Oo Shacabkii Ka Horyimid-

 

Soomaalidu waxay ku maahmaahdaa" Hadaan sacabka xeeladi ku jirin maxaa habeenkii loo tumaa" Maamulka labaxay somaliland ayaa waxaa ka horyimid kacdoon dhinaca shacabka ah oo ay ku diidan yihiin qorshaha isdiiwaangelinta iyo qaadista faraha iyo sawirada codeyayaasha doorashada sanadka soo socda dhici doonta.

 

Qorshan dadka faraha laga qadayo oo marka aynu eegno qaabka loo codeeyo aduunka ah mid ka duwan. Horena looma arag dad codeynaya oo sida denbiilayaasha laga qaado faraha iyo sawiro midna.

 

Tusaale hadii aynu u soo qaadano doorashada hadda ka socota dalka Maraykanka, waxaa dadweynahaha codkooda dhiibanayaa la eegayaa inay marka hore da'da lagu codeeyo gaadheen iyo inay haystaan dhalasho Maraykan ah si ay codkooda u dhiibtaan. Faro iyo sawir laga qaadayaa midna ma jiro.

 

Hadba waxaa is weydiin leh sababta ay maamulka labaxay Somaliland uga aqbaleen computarda midowga yurub keensadeen oo lagu keedin doono faraha iyo sawirada dadka codeeya, kuwaas oo ku dhici doona Computarda waaweyn (Servers keydiyayaasha) ee macluumaadka haya kuna yaala Yurub. taas oo ay wasaaradaha socdaalak reer yurub ka soo heli doonaan faraha muhaajiriinta somaaliyeed ee gala wadamadaasi.

 

Habka ay u shaqeeyaan computaradu hadii aynu eegno, macluumaadka marka lagu guro kuwa yaala Hargeysa waxay u gudbinayaan faraha iyo wixii lagu guro kaleba Yurub iyadoo la isticmaalayo shabakadda Internetka. Looma baahna in computardaas dib loogu celiyo qaarada Yurub ee iyagoo meeshooda yaala baa wixii ku jira lagala baxi karaa.

 

Waxaa gobolada uu ka kooban yahay maamulka labaxay Somaliland ka soda jaahawareer iyo baqdain ay dhalinyarada badan ee rajada ka qabta inay dhoofaan kaga soo horjeedaan farahan laga qaadayo.

 

Tasina waxaa la odhan karaa waa mid sax ah inay ka taxadaraan in farahooda la geliyo computardan reer yurub keensadeen. wadamada aduunkana marka keliya ee qof faro laga qaada waa marka uu denbi galo.

 

Gobolada Togdhdeer, Sanaag ayaa iyagu ah kuwa aad u diidan in farahooda la qaado, sidoo kale waxaa la soo sheegayaa in hoos u dhac weyne ku yimid dadkii is diiwaan gelin lahaa ,kadib markii go'aanka faro qaadista soo baxay oo warsidayaasha madaxa banaani shaaciyeen sabata dhabta ah ee ka danbeysa.

 

Waxaa dhammaan shacabka reer Somaliland looga digayaa inay ka digtoonadaan in farhooda si fudud loo geliyo Computaradaasi, farahaas oo si toos ah ugu gudbaya Computarada waaweyn ee kaydiya macluumaadka ee wasaaradaha socdaalka dalalka midowga Yurub.

 

Gebogabadii waxaanu soo qadanaynaa gabaygii ninkii la odhan jiray Faarax Nuur ee ahaa:

God hadimo booraan qafilan.. Qabarna hooseeyo.. Doqon baa halkii lagu qatali qoorta soo dhigane..

Maanaa mindiyo lay qarshaa.. Laygu qali doono.

I guess your uncle in Kismayo won't qualify right since he is technically from another country?

[Abtigiis]

people don't understand. Some think the reference is to Somalida ku nool south. The thing is some politicians don't want the guy from Darwanaaje or Harawo (in Somaligalbeed) to vote. Likewise, some are worried some from Aware will vote for me. Others are worried about the occupied SouthEast influx in favour of Kulmiye. It is an inter-party fued, but I doubt they will be able to stop Reer-hebel guy who is the same as the cousin in Hargeisa from registering or voting.

 

UCID shall win! I will win and people will enjoy my rethoric!

[NGONGE]

^^ Warya, xaasidnimada jooji. Don't go confusing Red again.

 

Red, adeer, Che eyo kuwan kale yanaay ku waalin. Your uncle in Kismayo is a Somalilander, just like your uncle in Amesterdam and your abti in London. Ha o bixin adeer.

[Abtigiis]

Where is the Xaasidnimo NG? I stated the obvious. Plus, what is wrong in wishing a win for me?

[Che -Guevara]

War NGONGE...It is difficult to be pro-Shabaab and pro-Somaliland. I actually feel for Red. Can those Gaashamo vote?. I heard voters get hauled from the Hawd come election time.

[xiinfaniin]

loooool@Red Sea's uncle in Kismayo uncle in Kismayo won't qualify to vote!

 

Waraa Abtigiis, saaxiib maxaa kugu dhacay? FCW? Who are you appeasing today!

 

Tollow waa tuma
