A_Khadar Posted April 15, 2013 Khatumo, Awdal and Makhir re-ignite an even bolder “United Somali Party” (USP): promised to bring Somalia 2.0 I want to start by thanking the president of Awdal State: Honourable Justice Rashiid Aw-Nur and his delegation for making such a long trip just to be here with us tonight. I also like to thank all the other dignitaries for coming here tonight. Finally, i would like to thank the hard working organizers of this event representating Khatumo, Awdal and Makhir communities of Toronto and Ottawa, Canada. Let me begin with a statement from our Canadian National Anthem. They say that In North America, Canada is “The True North Strong and Free”. Well, Ladies and gentlemen, in Northern Somalia, Awdal State, Khatumo State and Makhir States, are the “True North Strong and Free”. Tonight, my dear friends, There is a new breeze of freedom and liberty in Northern Somalia; after many years of civil war, hunger and hopelessness, suffering and oppression, there is a renewed sense of hope and belief in the sovereignty and Unity of our Country. In 1956, under the famous Gol-khatumo tree, gathered the communities of Khatumo, Awdal and Makhir, United under the United Somali Party USP banner. Their wisdom and collaboration in bringing together North and South Somalia laid down the foundations for A united SOMALI Republic. Almost 60 years later, ladies and gentlemen, we have an opportunity to become that catalyst again, the tie that binds together a true and unified Somali Federation. In the history of Somalia, some would say that the British government said that Somaliland was once a country. Well, ladies and gentlemen the British also said, that Awdal state was once an Empire, that Makhir State was once a Kingdom, and that Khatumo State was once a Dervish State. Whether you prefer a Country over an Empire or a Kingdom over a Dervish State, is not the issue before us today. That issue before us tonight is the new reality and the need to support the unity the re-birth of our internationally recognized Federal Government.

LANDER Posted April 15, 2013 This is cute, the disgruntled folks are coming back into the fold of Somaliland politics. Is it 1958-1960 all over again? The USP was the second most popular party in Somaliland and enjoyed wide support in Far eastern and Western provinces. But make no mistake it was very much a Somaliland party. It did what was best for its people, that is ALL its people not just those who voted for them. It essentially went along with popular sentiment of the majority in Somaliland. When it was time to work with the SNL they did that, when most Somalilanders deicded they wanted to unite with Italian Somalia they supported that as well. They were real patriots who did what they felt was best for the people of their country and acted on what their people voted them in office to do. Now this splinter group who spreads discord at the heart of Somaliland and even among their own tribal circles wants to monopolize the name of USP for themselves. It is very ironic walahi, because many Somaliland politicians from these regions have called on them to do this and have even historically site the USP in their speeches. Let's see if these folks live up to the name they wish to appropriate for themselves, or if they continue on their path to create political instability in otherwise relatively stable areas.
