First, Gedo is not your region, it’s our region. We as Somalis will not allowed failed politicians to gaslight the suffering of our people in Gedo. 2nd, you will not silence us, we will speak on Kenya aggression. How many more somalis have to die for u to find your moral compass?
People who are plotting to use my home region's issues as a tool to frustrate the federal government, or a bargaining chip to advance external self-interests will fail.
We know the genesis of Gedo problems and we (only we) will solve it. Waste no time on this.

To those quick to celebrate Puntland's demise, remember two things:
Puntland's resilience surpasses any selfish politician—it's a thriving state that will endure.
Puntland is connected to your life & will affect you. It's not a distant concept; it's a recognized state in Somalia

Question: why do you believe

did not proactively fight Alshabab.
Was it because he did not believed it was a key priority? Was it because he believe we did not have an army ready yet? Or was there other reasons?

I disagree! The PM should NOT have made this move. Normalizing the UAE relations could been addressed by the foreign minister. We are in a fragile state & the ONLY thing that the PM should be focusing on is ELECTION ELECTION ELECTION. So far he has proven incompetent in his role.
@SomaliPM
today took a decisive action. Reestablishing diplomatic ties with UAE is the right coarse of action. For 5 yrs Farmajo used Qatari $ to destabilize the nation. The 9.6M seized 3.5 yrs ago should have been put through the courts if the noise we hear today is real.
