Saalax Posted December 7, 2014 We, the members of Awdal State in North America, Europe, Mideast and Africa hereby, express our strongest support for Sultan abibakar Elmi wabar, who declared his support for an autonomous Awdal State, free of the grip of the failed secessionist regime in Somaliland. The Sultan has made his case in lengthy press conference in which he eloquently presented the historical grievances of the people of Awdal State against successive regimes of Somaliland. The people of Awdal have invested much of their political goodwill and intellectual resources to pacify the people of Northern Somalia after the fall of the Central Government of Somalia. Today, the people of Awdal have found themselves in a very precarious position, where they have become economically and politically marginalized in their own region and cities. We commend the Young Sultan for his courage and his timely response to the plight of the people of Awdal State. We urge the other Sultans and community leaders in Awdal to follow suit of Sultan Wabar’s actions and support an Autonomous Awdal State. It is understandable to feel overwhelmed and helpless against the widespread injustices and economic deprivation existing in our homeland, but we are confident that our people’s historical leadership acumen will play a catalist for the advent of a modern, progressive and JUST future Awdal State. We urge the people of Awdal State to stay united and stay vigilant against the destructive ploys of the secessionist regime in Hargeisa. The future political emancipation of the people of Awdal requires the cooperation and collaboration among communities and individuals. An unequivocal support for our progressive Sultans is paramount for restoring our dignity and our community’s place in history. We are confident that the people of Awdal State and across the world will whole heartedly support the efforts of Sultan Wabar and others who chose to speak truth to power without fear or favoritism. This above declaration was unanimously voted on by all members of Awdal State North America, Europe, Mideast and Africa on December 5, 2014 at 8:00 PM. We will release additional statements in the coming few weeks in support of Sultan Wabars efforts and the Principles of Solidarity, unity and establishment of Awdal State as a Regional administration.
