wind.talker Posted April 4, 2005 Lately, I keep hearing about Midland State and its president, Abdikarin Farah Laqanye. Today, some news wires reported that a weapons cache had arrived into Beledweyne from Ethiopia - sent to forces loyal to Midland State government. So, what is Midland State? What's the whole situation in Hiiraan? I didn't hear about Midland State or Laqanyo before the death of Col Qalaad (alaha u naxaristo). Fill me in..

Sky Posted April 4, 2005 i heard that there were 2 rival admins hiiraanland and midland in beledweyne and both claim to be the real admin of hiiraan. (sool flashbacks) anyway waxaan ognahay that the city is divided by the shabeele in 2 parts and 2 clans. i think it has got to do with the rivalry of these clans and maybe a proxy conflict between srrc and samatabixinta cuz qalaad (ahun) and his admin is pro-c/yussef and prolly the other side aint. i thought qalaad was of hiiraanland, not midland.
