Would reer HY accept the election results if ...

[AwRastaale]

If it was me I do divide development/projects based on electoral seats as well as number of registered eligible voters.

If Marodi Jeh records 6 seats out off possible 20 from 6 regions and the number of voters in Marodi Jeh represent 70% of adults then that should translate to Mardi Jeh getting the bulk of funding.

If Dhulos do not want to vote, that's fine by me but 0% vote means $0.

We reward those who embrace the system and policies should be based on participation and not simply 'wa reer abti' or 'British marked them within SL".

I don't give a fk. Take part, get rewarded else go look for qamadi elsewhere.

That rule should apply to everyone and every region. Then that should increase participation, awareness and universities should get funding to develop programs based on SL policies, values, rules, laws, awareness and development.

Let's say Hargeisa University says they can develop workshop for 5 villages with 500 households about voter registrations/voting then that workshop should get funded. An independent body should then assess the impact and results. If it works do it in other areas otherwise task someone else to find a solution.

This is how I would do things. And I know the nomadic mentality lakin persistency especially empowering the youth is the key. If one teenager can consume 10% of these methods, tomorrow his son will take onboard 20%----within 3 generations we should change 50% of mindset.

Most important thing is also delivering promises. Somalis do not value a promise. They break it with their communities, friends, wives and kids. Promise is what really eats up corruption. You stick to your promise, no one will come to you with laluush coz they know they can count on you lakin corruption is the result of 'ka gadhsi intu dhaman ama la wayin'.

Classical Isaac were all about promise. They never broke their promise with each others or to their community.

Let me tell you a story. My uncle was growing up in Hargeisa. One day he was just wondering in the heart of Hargeisa. One of the well known local ladies called him and said; eedo kalay ii hay ganacsiiga. She ran a small food stool and sold simple home made sambusa (sambuuse). She was going somewhere.

He said okay eedo. He was 9 years old.

She didn't come back for very long time. After selling several, wu gajoday. So he decided to eat one sambusa wallahi true story.

After he treated his gaajo temporarily he realized he didn't have any money for her. Gurigina kuma odhan karo islan ban sambuse ka cunay.

So guess what he does?

Wallahi he climbed a truck on it's way to Berbera and tried to get a job at the dock or bakhaaro in order to pay her. When he arrived in Berbera he couldn't find a job. So he saw some Isaaq niggz going back and forth to Aden, this is the late 1960s. Qar ba ku yidhi jump on board we will hide you. Back then Isaaq used to smuggle each others.

So he did that. He went to Aden and landed a job. He sent a tape and money to Hargeisa saying eedo raali ahaw inan sambuuski ka cunay. Here is your money and little bit more.

For over 40 years he lived in UAE. Since then he built houses, bought cars, farms and his own restaurant.

All that trouble for just sambuus to repay.

That's how he did tahriib.

if the dhulbahantes were to vote who would they vote for and why?

If we assumed they will vote and not trash away the ballot box like 2010, than Xagalatosy is in Kulmiyi, so he should bring in some Dhulos athough himself not getting the VP position might cause a minor set back. However, you have this Farax Garad/Maxamed Garad rivalry where the both compete over Dhulbahante leadership. No know what would happen, but this the final chance for Dhulos to get something till 2022. If they kept supporting Khatumo, no one will take them seriously when making governments or later in 2022 elections.

Holly cow, are these 3 men the only dhuloz men involved in somaliland politics??
I thought there were others, fuad cadde or something and xaabsade.

Anyways 3 xisbi should take 1 dhuloz each and nullify each other.

Fuade Cade died recently in Turkey AUN.
Xabsade changed his nigis again. He joined PL long time ago, you're so outdated.

The promise initiative will slowly take away the qabiil mindset among Isaaq.

If it was up to me, I would make it a law for every candidate to make at least 20 oath
on everything from environment to military. That way in the next elections people would question
him on his words and compare it to the next/ previous president. It would stimulate critical thinking and reasoning.
Unlike what we see now everyone repeats what he/she hear in makhayad or hardcore parents on the future candadites.
Another thing I would make compulsory is that every official should be 60 years max & have at least a genuine Bachelor degree, got tired of continues PR blunders and excessive corruption.

The herd mentality of worshiping people over qabiil would die.
People would discuss "What he did/do" instead of "What Habar he's from"

That's alone is a huge victory.

Togdheer registers over 26,000 voters in two days that's a good start.

why this perpetual voters registrations when we don't even have a decent population census , better yet why not just save time and do them both at the same time... why can't Somaliland for once be creative and visionary , if every family has at least one adult that voting adult can tell us the number of his family and simply get at least a sense of population census.

I agree, it should be national duty.
