Nice historical name... Hope there won't be any disputes!

Not sure about the "nice" part. I can just picture a fight taking place in that state and somone shouting "Azania is burning!" with an Al Shabab operative replying knowingly with the words "Az-zani wal azania fil naar".

Somalia plans to create new state

to keep off Al Shabaab

The war-torn Somalia could be headed for deeper trouble if plans to create another autonomous region along its borders with Kenya are carried through.

 

Although being billed as a good tactical move to help stabilise the lawless country, some observers say it could spark fresh rounds of civil war between regional authorities and the Al Qaeda linked Al Shabaab militia that is causing grave security concerns in the Horn of Africa.

 

A meeting in Nairobi this week discussed the formation of a semi-autonomous Jubaland that will comprise northern regions of Lower and Middle Juba and Gedo on the Kenya-Somalia border.

 

If the plan goes through, Jubaland would become the third semi-autonomous breakaway region after Somaliland and Puntland.

 

A group of former Somalia MPs told the Nairobi meeting that if created, Jubaland would act as a buffer zone and frustrate incursions by Al Shabaab into the region, prevent entry of refugees, and smuggling of arms into Kenya.

 

Kenya has backed the proposal with the hope it would help crush the Al Shabaab insurgents operating along the Kenya-Somalia-Ethiopia border.

 

The Nairobi meeting was held at a time Mandera is under siege from heavily armed Al Shabaab fighters.

 

The rebel fighters have wounded a number of villagers and even police and military officers based in the town and its environs.

 

Risky undertaking

 

The militia group have pounded the town with mortar fire as they fight the Somalia Transitional Government troops across the border. The rebel group is opposed to the breakaway.

 

A former senior police officer, who spoke to The Standard On Saturday, on condition of anonymity because he is still bound by State secrets rules, warned the Kenyan Government to tread carefully on its relationship with the new Jubaland.

 

"It will not be easy. It may help stop the Al Shabaab in the long run but the Government must be ready for a fight because the militia will definitely resist the creation of the new state," said the former officer.

 

He added: "I hope our top security advisors weighed the pros ad cons of openly supporting such an initiative. I hope the Government is prepared to deal with the repercussions."

 

But delegates at the meeting downplayed the fears that the creation of Jubaland would create more security problems in the already troubled region.

 

Muhammed Gandhi, a former defence minister in Somalia who is co-ordinating the plan said it would bring stability in the region occupied by Al Shabaab.

 

"We are ready to liberate the three regions from Al Shabaab," he said.

 

A seven day congress attended by Somali’s Transitional Federal Government members of parliament, representatives from African Union, IGAD representatives and elders from the region are supposed to come up with a roadmap of how to defeat the terror group.

 

On Wednesday, delegates adopted a regional constitution with 81 Articles to help govern the new state. They also elected Professor Gandhi as the new president of Jubaland.

 

The new ‘country’ is fashioned on the model of the autonomous Puntland and Somaliland in the north.

 

"We intend to conclude a plan of action that has been ongoing for the last two years. We must restore nationhood and unity to the people of Somalia who have suffered foe the last 20 years," said Prof Gandhi.

 

Kenya’s take

 

He said Somalis in the Diaspora, civil society working inside the war torn country and other groups have supported the plan.

 

Kenya is reportedly interested in helping develop the new regional administration to establish a buffer zone between it and the Islamist insurgency in southern Somalia.

 

There are concerns that Kenya’s border with Somalia is a conduit for small arms, which are then distributed to the whole region, and an easy route for refugees.

 

According to the leaked Wikileaks documents, Kenya is said to have supported the creation of the Jubaland to provide a buffer zone and prevent the entry of refugees and illegal arms.

 

Wafula Wamunyinyi, the Deputy Special Representative of the African Union Mission in Somalia, says Somalis must drive peace initiatives before outside intervention.

 

"This plan has the support of AU and Igad members. But we must engage the local community to understand the importance of peace," said Wamunyinyi.

 

However, some countries in the region were not enthusiastic about the plan. Ethiopia, for example, is concerned about the likely impact on its own Somali-dominated ****** region where rebels are fighting for independence. Others doubt Kenya’s tactical capacity to carry out the plan given the strong presence of Al Shabaab rebels in Jubaland whose capital city is Kismayu.

 

Recent US diplomatic cables quoted Ethiopian Prime minister Melez Zenawi as fearing for negative regional impact if the plan failed.

 

The breakaway Puntland has in the past one year witnessed assassination of high profile government officials including a judge and an MP. Somalia slipped into lawlessness following the ouster of President Siad Barre in 1991. The country has since witnesses several coups and murders of top leaders as various clans fight for power.

The clan bigots come out to condemn Prof.Gaandi an accomplished academic who has been a reformer and an active peace-maker in the TFG in recent years, he is also an ardent critic of the 4.5 system.The new regional government he has founded reflects on his core principles, clan will only exist in the house of elders and no where else(35 elders and 69 parliamentarians elected from districts).The marginalised minorities will all have there presence and voice respected in the region.Some of the more radical elements of Prof.Gandis own clan have condemned his efforts to build a broad-based regional government but Prof.Gandi has not bent to there clan outlook on the region nor taken heed to the scorn of other clans who also want to see this projects failure out of there distorted tribal political view.A seasoned politician Prof.Gandi has curbed the efforts of many spoilers especially from Ethiopia and its agents.One of the reasons Gandi was unceremoniously dismissed from his former TFG ministerial position was because he was seen as a threat by Ethiopia.

 

The Jubba region has never experienced such grand efforts to build a regional government with support from many of the inter-govermental organisations and many important leaders from the Jubba region.This will be revealed when the full "Azania" Goverment is declared.The Jess's,morgans and Hirales will be replaced with an effective state government.This attempt at restoring government to the jubba regions is not an empty diaspora huff and puff but an entity that can back up its plans with its armed security force which has been training for the past 2 years and already operational in Gedo and Jubbada Hoose.

I don't like these different mini-states, but if they result in long-term stability for the people there then I'm very much a supporter! Though this initiative should have been established in the early 90s/2000s, as it would have prevented alot of destitute people from having to flee to a camp without running water in a neighbouring country, or drown at sea.

 

A new regional city should be established in the area they control now, similar to Garowe.

Goodluck to them, I hope they can do something for the people in these regions laakiin I doubt anyone can solve Kismaayo issue, I believe that city will be the last place to be sorted out, but I never understood what is so good about Kismaayo, qandho kulayl iyo huuno badan, no offense to real reer kismaayod people.

Not from Kismayo, but that city is very important; it has a a sizable population and relatively good city-planning, not to mention an advanced seaport, and an established airport. The extremists knew this when they rolled in, which is why they decided to place their HQ there. It's very vital that the government reclaims that city if it wants to achieve permanent peace.

Yes Chimera, it would be much better if it was established as early as 90s. Nevertheless, late is better than never. As I read through the programme has had ample time to build all the infrustructure of a state and its backed by people with influence in Somalia who are present at the convention. It is the first time Jubba Valley and Gedo has had such large scale efforts dedicated to regional state building.

 

Bu'ale is the official capital city, a wise step to political stability. It lies in middle Juba, the very center of Azania state.

 

Here is rough map:

Tan iyo markii ay bur-burtay dowladii dhexe ee Soomaaliya 1991, waxaa jiray dad hubaysan oo ka kala yimid gobolo kale oo ka tirsan Soomaaliya oo si xoog ugu soo duulay deegaamada Azania, dhibaatooyin badan oo aan la soo koobi karina u geystay shacabka Soomaaliyeed ee deegaamadaas dega oo iyagu aan dhaqan u lahayn colaadaha iyo dhul-balaarsiga. Sidaas darted, dhismaha maamul goboleeda Azania waa talaabada ugu haboon ee lagaga hortagi karo dadka raba in ay goboladan qori afkiis ku haystaan. Sidoo kale, dhisida maamul goboleedkani waxa uu qeyb ka yahay sidii nidaamka dowladnimo iyo kala danbeyta loogu soo dabaali lahaa guud ahaa Soomaaliya.

 

Hanbalyo Ku Socota Madaxweyne Prof. Gaandi:

 

Qurbajoogta Jubbooyinka ee degan Malaysia waxay hambalyo iyo bogaadin u dirayaan madaxweyne Prof. Maxamed Cabdi Gaandi, iyaga oo ugu hambalyeynaya dadaalkii dheeraa ee uu u soo galay sidii uu dhidibada ugu taagi lahaa maamul goboleedka Azania. Prof. Gaandi waa aqoonyahan u qalma inuu hogaamiyo maamul goboleedka Azania, taasna waxaa marag cad u ah khibrada aqooneed iyo siyaasadeed ee uu leeyahay, waxaana dheehan kara qofkii dhagaystay waraysigii halka saac socday ee uu siiyey laanta af-Soomaaliga ee idaacada BBC maalintii Jimcaha ee taariikhdu ahayd (1st April 2011) Prof. Gaandi isaga oo macallin jaamacadeed ka ah Europe, kuna nool nolol raaxo leh ayuu ka doortay sidii uu diintiisa, dalkiisa iyo dadkiisa wax ugu qaban lahaao, sidaas darteed waxa uu shacabka Soomaaliyeed gaar ahaan inta wanaaga rabta uu ka mudan yahay ammaan iyo bogaadin.

 

Talooyin Ku socda Prof. Gaandi:

 

• Soo celinta nabad galyada deegaankaas iyo nabadeynta beelaha walaalaha ah.

• Dhisida sida ugu dhaqsaha badan dhammaan laamaha kala duwan ee dowlada.

• Dhisida golaha culima�uddiinka oo uu yeesho maamulka goboleedka Azania.

• Hirgelinta shareecada Islaamka ee sharafta leh, si looga hortago dadka ujeedooyinka kale leh ee ku qadhaabta magaca diinta.

• Dib u dejinta dadkii ka barakacay deeganadaas Azania.

• Ururinka iyo hawlgalinta aqoonyahanada ka soo jeeda deegaanada Azania.

• Ka dib marka uu Prof Gaandi dhidibada u taago maamul goboleedka Azania, waxaa haboon in uu kursiga baneeyo, fursadna siiyo siyaasiinta kale ee deegaanka. Intaas ka dib waa in Prof. Gaandi u gudbaa heer qaran, isuna sharaxaa xilka madaxweynaha Soomaaliya maadaama uu yahay shakhsi aan dalkiisa denbi ka gelin, isla markaasna leh aqoon, khibrad iyo siyaasad uu Soomaaliya ku hogaamin karo.

Waxaa mahadcelin gaar ah loo dirayaa siyaasiyiinta reer Kenya ee taageerada balaadhan siiyey sidii loo dhisi lahaa maamul goboleedka Azania sida wasiirka gaashaandhiga ee dalka Kenya mudane Yuusuf Xaaji iyo madax labaad ee baarlamanka Kenya mudane Faarax Macallin.
