Somaliland fails to hold elections for the fourth time so much for "democracy"

[Saalax]

While Somalia had 3 presidents since 2010. I guess cajuus

Siilanyo has no shame, the only way he will go is by the

bullet.

 

Somalia - Sheikh Sharif Ahmed - 2009/2012 , Hassan Sheikh Mohamoud - 2012/2017, Farmaajo -2017 (Present)

 

 

Mamuulka Somaliland - Siilanyo - 2010 to present 2017

What does Somaliland Constitution say about these extensions?

 

Can members of the Parliament (who I assume haven't stood for election in long time) unilaterally extend their term and that of the Government? Could this be challenged in the Supreme Court?

Salaax,

 

Putting aside your narrow-minded agenda, this is a sad state of current affairs for Somaliland.

 

It will further alienate Somaliland's international allies who have held it up as a beacon of representative democracy in the Horn.

The parliament can but the issue here is the elections have been

delayed many times by a group of unelected men called Guurti

(house of elders). So there is nothing democratic about it.

Sxb you are naive. I have been saying that since 2010, it is

the Kulmiye policy to destroy Somaliland credibility and

they achieved it.

 

 

"1. Moving Away From, Rather Than Towards,

International Recognition: The abandonment, which began

with the inauguration of the Kulmiye Party Government on

July 20, 2010, of the consistent path toward international

recognition has led to a decline in international credibilit

y due to corruption and the fact that the Kulmiye

Government has refused to conduct constitutionally

-scheduled elections.1 It has, in other words, clung to

power illegally"

If that's true(a big if), why are you not a supporter of Silaanyo and Kulmiye? Since you have finally come out of the closet and declared yourself a 'Somaliweyn' advocate.

 

Think through your logic, saxiib.

[Saalax]

Simple. It is a corrupt regime that stole millions from Somaliland

civilians , with blood on their hands. I will not support criminals.

Lastly telling the truth (the fact everyone knows Somaliland

won't get recognition) doesn't mean advocating for anything

but stating the reality.

@SAAlax adigu ma Somaliland xumaanteeda unbaad ka shaqaysaa? maxaa ka galay Somaliland iyo amuraheega? You can talk the day you choose your own president, Silaanyo was chosen by his people unlike Somalia where they are selected.

 

I myself do not agree with the extension but as long as opposition parties agree with it, i don't have a problem. There has been good reasons including the current famine crisis for the delays.
