HALKAN KA AKHRISO GO'AAMADA OO DHAN

[Tallaabo]

I had some worries about the precedent this whole tribal business would set, but the outcome is good and very progressive.

what kind of precident would that be, how is tribal meeting a precident to somalilanders its been happening for centuries its part and part of our culture and history.

[Tallaabo]

Tribal gathering like this were acceptable when we had no elected politicians to serve us. But now the Republic of Somaliland has an elected leader and a capable government, elected parliamentarians to speak for and work for those who elected them, and judicial system and security forces to bring law and order to the country. In my opinion it is a travesty of democracy to attach any importance to a bunch of mostly uneducated and certainly unelected self-appointed and self-serving men who bypass the whole national political system and pretend to speak for a large section of our population in this day and age.

 

The best way for any tribe or citizen of Somaliland to promote their interest and develop their region is:

1. To elect educated and capable politicians to positions of power,

2. To pressure their local governments to do more and work better for their region and towns,

3. To bring to account their respective parliamentarians who represent them at the national level and demand that they fulfil the duties for which they were elected by enacting laws, bringing the government to account, and sitting in committees.

4. Work for the common good of the country so that everyone prospers.

 

I believe it is also time our constitution demands any clan chief to get direct mandate from the clan in order to have legitimacy.

alot of people seem to make the same mistake that you are making which is confusing xeer dhaqan and polics, we are not a western nation and we have our culture and ways of doing things you dont think we are going to just throw away our culture values and history and hand all our affairs to a politicians of all people please...

 

we have a government but that does not mean local communities cannot meet and do something for them selves like here in daallo were they agreed to build their local infustructure and develope their region how is that bad or do you look at everything with political tinted glasses not everything has to boil down to politics.

 

dadku xeer iyo dhaqan baa walidoog u yaalay so dont thing people will throw away everything and expect a policitian boys to run their affairs 100%... or have you been living in the west for too long and think somaliland is the same as those society in europe and western world.

 

from reading what the agreement is i dont see anything but positive for the said community and for somaliland as whole. i personnaly have more faith in an old man who gives wise advise than politician who will sell his mother if it would advance his political cause.
