A DANGEROUS UN SITE IN GAROWE TO AVOID


October 3, 2019

I was driving west on my way to a joint inauguration of new traditional leader, Ali Said Samater and Chief Elder, Adirizak Haji Awil Isse, of Omar Muse, sub-clan of Dir clan, in Puntland State of Somalia.

Before reaching my destination at Hiddo-Raac resort, about 20 Kms off to the west of Garowe, the State Capital of Puntland, I had to stop in the way. To dress up for the event, I had to put on my suit tie, which was in the gloves compartment of my vehicle. I came to halt at a free space between the compound of UNPOS Garowe and Amal Bank. Unaware that this spot was the most dangerous in town. I was putting on my suit tie, when a uniformed man approached my vehicle cautiously to make sure that I wasn’t exploding in a suicide bomb-blast.

In a saddened voice, and perhaps, silently thanking Allah for my safety, he asked me “what are you doing here”, after I pulled down my side window? I said nothing other than “what is wrong here”? He asked me, “don’t you see you are on the cross-hairs of a gun”? “What”? I looked up at my left. Exactly, there was a guard on the top of UNPOS compound, aiming at me, ready to shoot to kill. I quickly drove away, not daring to signal left, moving improperly onto the road. Momentarily, I glanced at guard still aiming at me. I was extremely lucky. Allah meant me to live on. Paradoxically, the New Sultan is a local employee of the UN.

There were a number of times that I had noticed UN security personnel were over-reacting and engaged in unproportional security precautions that make Garowe look like Mogadishu. I understand that there were a few security incidents in as many years during the entire existence of Puntland, but not to that extent that the UN Garowe is show- casing now in a peaceful city. Garowe is much safer than the Nairobi they are fond of. I fully understand, however, UN presence in Garowe, as in any other town in Somalia, justifies their employment and careers in a way a Nairobi security incident couldn’t impact them, but, they are too over-protective, triger-happy and security paranoid to endanger innocent lives by accident.

Glad to inform you that the inauguration of Sultan Cali Said Samater and Elder Abdirisaaq Xaaji Cawil, went exceedingly well with the attendance of large group of Puntland prominent traditional leaders, elders and large crowd of popular supporters. Congratulations to the traditional leaders of Cumar Muuse, Dir, Puntland!

HOW PUNTLAND DESTABILIZATION STARTED IN 2000-2001

July 22, 2019

It started with the creation of network of key traditional leaders, influential religious personalities and pro-TNG political activists in PUNTLAND. TNG President Abdulqassim Salad Hassan and his political supporters of PUNTLAND origin in his Cabinet had established and maintained communication with this network of political and armed saboteurs. These Cabinet members provided the link between AbdulQassim and TNG Operation Network in Puntland.

Transfer of funds to this Network of TNG agents followed. What happened next is history.

It looks as if the current FGS is re-testing and re-playing the same operational formula without knowing that those tactics and political strategy had been applied on Puntland before, and badly failed. The damage, however, was done.

Puntland had recovered not only the damage, but also came out much more stronger to be able to lead the Somali National Reconciliation and Peace Talks and establish the Transitional Federal Government of the Somali Republic in October 2004 – Puntland President, Abdullahi Yusuf, becoming the President of Somalia.

At that time, there was a good portion of Puntland population blindly supporting Arta Conference and TNG. Puntland leadership then knew better about Abdulqassim Salad Hassan, Ismail Omar Ghuelleh and their political objectives.

It looks like history repeating itself.

AN IMPORTANT INTERVIEW

Please hook up Minister Juxa

SHARIIF, INA SHARIIFKEE TAHAY?

W.Q: Ismaaciil Xaaji Warsame

“Haduusan aabbahaa Shariif ahaan jirin, dee aniguba Shariif baan ahay”. Su’aashaa waxaa Shariif Xasan weydiiyey Madaxweyne Cabdullaahi Yusuf. Shariif Xasan markaa wuxu ahaa Guddoomiyaha Baarlamaankii KMG ahaa ee Soomaaliya. Su’aashu waxay salka ku hay’saa sicir-bararka madax-dhaqameedyada Soomaalida.

Dawlad Goboleedka Puntland ee aasaas ahaan ka dhisantay madax-dhaqameedyada iyo waxgaradka dadweynaha gobollada midoobay, waxay dhaxashay sadex dabaqo ee madax-dhaqameed:

  1. Soo jireen
  2. Dawladdii Siyaad Barre ka abuurran
  3. Gadaal ka abuurran aan joogsi la hayn

Mar hadday door horseednimo ka qaateen aasaaskii dawladda Puntland, waxay noqdeen awood dawladda ka sarreysa, qaarkoodna uba qaatay in dawladdu tahay shaqaale iyaga hoos imaanaya. Waxba kuma jabna taa, marka laga eego in dawladdu tahay adeeggaha dadweynaha. Waxayse arrintu dhib noqoneysaa markii madax-dhaqameedyadu soo farageliyaan hawl-maalmeedka iyo awoodda dastuuriga ah ee Dawladda, sida ka dhacday Puntland sanaddadii 2000-2001.

Waagaa, Islaan Maxamed Islaan Muuse ayaa fara-marooqsaday curadnimada madax-dhaqameed ee Harti, isagoo u maraya saldhiggiisa Garowe ee ah Magaalo-madaxda Dawladda Puntland. Islaan Maxamed, markaa wuxu qaatay doorka Ayatullaha Puntland. Madaxweynaha Dawladdu, si joogta ah ayuu guriga Islaanka u soo booqan jirey, la tashi iyo salaanba. Xiriirkaa dhaw ee laba mas’uul , wuxu ku dambeeyey in Madaxweynihii Dawladda madaxnimada laga eryo.

Boqor Maxamuud Boor Muuse iyo Islaan Bashiir Islaan Cabdulle, labaduba waa ka curadsanyihiin Islaan Maxammed Islaan Muuse, marka laga eego Saldanada Majeerteen.

Boqor Maxammud wuxu ahaa nin ahlu diin ah, oo inuu duceeyo mooyee, wax kale aan danayn. Yeelkeede, waagaa sharkii waxaa u qaaday ninka maroorsaday wakiilnimada Boqorka, Cabdullaahi Boqor Muuse “King Kong”,deedna isagu Boqorkii noqday. Islaan Bashiir waa nin dhawrsan, afgaaban, siyaasaddana iska ururiya, marar badanna diiday in isaga siyaasad loo adeegsado.

Waxa iyana jirey madax-dhaqameedyo kale oo aan tiro yarayn, curadna ah, door weyna ka soo qaatay guullihii Puntland.

Dhibta madax-dhaqameedyadu waxay mar kale dawladda qabsatay, markii soo jeedin la dhex-keenay Golaha Wasiirrada in gunno loo qoondeeyo Isimada Puntland. Wasiirkii Arrimaha Gudaha, oo markaa ahaa Axmed Cabdi Xaabsade, ayaa ku adkaystay in A, B, C daraja ah loo qoondeeyo gunnada madax-dhaqameedyada, taa oo la isku mariwaayey, go’aankeedana Madaxtooyada Puntland loo daayey. Madaxtooyada uma cuntamin soo jeedinta Wasiir Xaabsade ee A, B, C-da. Saf-balaaran ayey arrintii ku dambeysay.

Waxaa ka soo qaybgalay shirkii Imbagathi ee Kenya 2002-2004, Dhowr Madax-dhqan oo Beesha Mareexaan ah, kuwaa oo Ugaaska Guud ee beeshu, Ugaas Cumar, ka carooday, Shirkiina uga kacay. Waxaa loo saaray madax-dhqameedyo uu hoggaaminayo Garaad Saleemaanka Maxamuud Garaad/Dhulbahante, si ay u soo caro-celiyaan Ugaas Cumar. Ugaas Cumar waxa lagu yiri: “Waxaad tahay, Ugaas, soojireen ah. Waagii Siyaad Barre faragelinayey dhaqanka Soomaaliyeed, isaga oo magaccaabi jirey madax-dhaqameedyo beeleed, waad ka aamustay. Kama aad celin Siyaad Barre, kamana aadan talin khatarta ay faragelintaa uleedahay dhaqanka Soomaaliyeed. Annagu, kuwii uu noo magacaabey Siyaad Barre, ayaan iska qaadanay. Ugaas, adiguna tan aqbal”.
