Dr_Osman Posted August 3, 2013 I think I need to provide an analysis on President Farole Speech and areas he touched upon. Firstly lets start with his comments towards Cade Muse being the instigator of the clashes on the elections. I agree with the president. There is no denying that Cade Muse was behind it and he was behind it for totally selfish reasons. He wants to see ina samatar become president so he can get favours from him when needed. Cade Muse has gone twice as a spoiler and farole has gone down as a hero for not retaliating. I am also suprised he made no mention of his ina adeer being killed at the police station in Qardho and the killers roaming free in Qardho. Farole truly shined and his love for Puntland superceded petty clan agendas as cade muse. I totally commend farole for his action in the controversial election, because honestly he could of retaliated if he wanted. Secondly he mentioned Mogadishu, now this issue has been on-going for a while and it is long over-due that he cuts all ties to this HAG based administration. This sick man in Villa Somalia thinks it's ok to change agreed upon constitution without even consulting the stakeholders who signed it and put it into place. The same constitution that he supposed to be defending, upholding. What sort of nonsense is this. To add insult to injury this man is getting every ambassador that is from Puntland out and barring our students from attending scholarships in Sudan which our certificates already got us into. He wants our students to get it approved in mogadishu. This Hassan culusow and his admin are hell bent on one thing and that is to see Puntland destroyed. This sick man shoud learn from history not repeat it. Many have tried this before against Puntland and they always fail. Learn from people's mistakes, don't repeat it. As far as I am concerned, all working relationships with mogadishu should be suspended until this mess in the SFG is sorted out. This should've of been done a long time ago, not now. As for the SOOL issue, it was good that the president addressed key issues about development assistance not reaching those areas and the root cause of this being the clan's unstable politics. This idea of switching between Puntland and Somaliand and Khatuumo leads to an environment where noone in they're right mind would invest because it could easily be destroyed tommorow through war. This unstable politics needs to be resolved. As for the President reference to Somaliland oil program. In all fairness, the somaliland admin isn't prospecting SOOL anyways. However the issues of the licenses are a serious problem and could lead to an all out war in the future. Somaliland has no right to be issuing oil license to regions that are not they're and have no legal basis too. It's like me giving out oil concessions for hiiran and saying we were italian somaliland to the international community and companies. Waa arin lagu qoslo. As for the President comments regarding Somaliland and Mogadishu talks. His absolutely right, mogadishu has a mandate to develop a government in mogadishu and seek cooperation from Somaliland on different issues such as security, information sharing, business, etc. Farole did welcome this, however it is not the mogadishu administration concern to be sitting down and talking about national border matters. The SFG mandate is to build governance in mogadishu. Some people in Somalia have this idea that mogadishu being the capital and being the head of the recognised government of Somalia they can do anything. There is nothing more further then the truth. This aint the 1960s when everyone in Somalia was in Mogadishu. Mogadishu represented all somalis then, however now it doesn't. The whole point of a federal system is exactly that, not one region or one man can have the final say on anything that is of national matters. Even if mogadishu wanted to have the final say, they can't it defeats the whole purpose of federalism and farole was right to highlight somaliland is truly wasting it's time. They playing a 1960's politics to a 2013 Somalia. Ha is-lugoynina. Mogadishu isn't like it used to be in the 1960's and wont ever be. Anything of national matters such as borders all somalis must be present because this affects all. On the flip side, I was quite disappointed that we are still talking about completing an 8 year airport project. Wa arin aad looga xumaado. the fake promises made about the Bosaso airport and now promises made about the tender for it being released this month is just ever the more sad. I was also quite disgusted why farole tip-toeing about such an important fiscal matte such as the somali shilling. Puntland should print it's own puntland shilling. There is no point we play this waiting game for mogadishu to sort out it's act and do the job. They are to busy robbing the central bank, we cannot rely on this failed administration on such a crucial fiscal matter and we should be using our own currency until the national currency is restored and working effectively. I'll end with the comments made by the famed ISIMO which was very encouraging and I hope they play a key role in ensuring Puntland remains peaceful and prosperous in the now and in the future.

Tillamook Posted August 4, 2013 You, Dr.Osman, are both a gentleman and scholar. And I have greatly enjoyed your take on Faroole's State Of The State Address on the fifteenth anniversary of the formation of the Puntland State Of Somalia. With that said, Dr, don't you think all the progress his been touting is a little too late and too little.?! A good example of this is the democratization process which he swore to embark upon when he first took office 4 yrs ago, but just when his tenure was about to run out, he started hustling and bustling, asking for term extensions and whatnot, just to fulfill this over due promise. I believe President Faroole deserves the utmost criticism for this abject failure. He thought he could pull a fast one on the people, but thankfully he has been found wanting. Secondly on the issue of SSC, he is a fool who thinks he can also make fools out of the people of Puntland. No need for him to be two faced about this issue. If he is serious about tackling the SSC issue, the only option left to him now is to support the newly formed Khaatumo State 100% and help make it a more viable federal state. Personally, these two issues were important to me in that speech and the rest of those shenanigans about Culusow and the anarchists of Mogadishu are nothing more than a smoke screen intended to distract us from his failures during his tenure as Puntland's Head Of State..

Ditoore, why can't you speak like this all the time and stop the torrent of ridiculous comments and threads which to be honest with you only belittle your professorial status? :confused: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carafaat Posted August 4, 2013 Dottore, your analysis is fair, balanced and on the spot. Faroole should have hired you as an Advisor! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
