I don’t believe all the people in Xamar want to live Xaaraam houses, they have seen enough punishment form god, there are those who are willing to buy from you, The only people who did not got their property back this long are those don’t want to be associated with xamar anymore like people from Somaliland and Puntland. Everyone else got their homes long ago. It was easy in the 90s to hire very little a mooryaan who will do the clean up why wait a government to give you back your property.
In Lower and middle Shabele region Afgoye, Jowhar, and all the places that Shabab control in the south everyone got their farms back since 2006 and the squatters disappeared overnight when they heard their hands and legs will be chopped of if they get caught occupying other people’s farms, two years ago Alshabab gave back 3,000 acre farm in Janaale generating every year close to million dollar worth of fruits that belonged to ina Mohamed Siyad Barre another similar size one to General Morgan,
My advice to those in Somaliland and puntland is don’t abandon your properties in the south if you don’t like just sell it you can get it good price, if people like ina siyad Barre and Morgan got their million dollar worth farms so should you, Today Mogadishu is in the hands of the Amisom and TFG mixed clan soldiers if you have papers or witnesses that can proof you are the rightful owner of a particular property you will get it right away, people are tired of wars most of the squatters are willing to leave with the first notice.
