Somalia: Inclusivity, Acrimony and the Pressing National Priority

 

 

Somalising the Jubba-******

 

Currently, Somalia faces an abnormal political reality. It is a failed state. What applies to functioning states may not apply to Somalia. But that does not mean we should accept the abnormal as normal simply because the circumstances we face are abnormal. We should aspire for the normal and should embrace it on every occasion it reemerges.

 

It is abnormal to have your President and Parliament guarded by foreign troops. It is abnormal to see national leaders who consult foreign states to decide on simple local administrative matters. But it is also abnormal to have citizens who decry the involvement of their President in local governance issues, yet applaud foreign meddling. In the case of Kismaayo, the ****** community in Jubba needs to understand that it is part of Somalia, not Kenya.

 

Part of the de-Somalising of the Jubba-******s, which manifests itself in the form of unfounded references to ONLF every time a Jubba-******i man or women asks for a political share in the Jubbas, comes from the community’s incapacity to ‘nationalize’ its politics.

 

One way of ‘nationalizing’ the ****** community’s politics is for them to accept that President Hassan, as the leader of Somalia, has a legitimate role in the governance of Kismaayo. If there are grievances, the community should take it to Villa Somalia, not the State House in Nairobi. The sovereignty principle, which should be the cornerstone of our political morality, must not be sacrificed for clan agenda.

Apophis and Zack,

 

Just read this interesting article from our own 'Mucktar'. Read his advice towards your folks, maybe you will take his advice rather then mine. Nobody is denying your(Somali-Kenyans and Somali-Ethiopians) kinship to the O folks in Jubbaland, but you need to understand that Somalia's souvereignity is quite sacred to us. And we will never accept Kismayo being ruled from Nairobi and its leaders( like "Madoba" has been doing recently) taking dictates from Kenyatta rather then from Mogadishu.

Carafaat, just like Xaaji Habaar, is in fierce struggle with his inner demons that continuously urge him to hate certain clans.
