Smooth
The only mistake your having is assuming Sharif Sakin has all Southwest MP support, in fact he doesn't. The way things seems as of now is also that Puntland is going to support XSM. The irony and mess of Somali politics keeps getting juicy by the day LOL.
I also support the Shariif, he is the best for the country by a country mile, on the topic of Sakiin until Jawaari announced he was running last minute, he had the full support, while everyone announced themselves for the speaker post, no D&M did until couple days ago.
That tells me they have split into fractions now, you got to love Somali politics, it's the most entertaining stuff ever, it changes everyday, the most fickle bunch I have ever seen, even the UAE is getting brain hemorrhagic from this, it has summoned everyone to a meeting for the third time now because it's confused
But little does she know, once that meeting is done, the next few days everything has changed again, walahi wa cajiib, this year even Kulimye and wadani are getting involved, contrary to popular opinion, this year they are electing their MP's themselves, no longer handpicked by Xamar
Kulmiye is doing a smart thing by hiding behind HSM (whom they support silently and secretly) despite the damage he has caused them, when he tried to give P/land more seats in the upper house, I was totally shocked by this ineptitude
But here is the funny thing, one Damul Jadiid was telling me back then, it seemed like a crazy theory he told me HSM did this to coax S/land out while sending a threat to them at the same time (Kulmiye), this worked, you saw the expose, you saw them go to the Media you even saw the Isaaq posters on here crying about it.
Kulmiye originally was silently supporting Sheikh Shariif, until the Hawks in that camp came up with the lunatic idea that HSM is better for them, because Sheikh Shariif would make the country better and therefore risk Ictiraaf, the Hawkish camp won out and they are backing HSM as a result (but everything can change last minute)
The whole thing is one amusing circle, when I wrote Wadani met Farmaajo, CC, Sheikh Shariif they laughed made even a topic to mock it, until the first two made the media and now their is damage control, some within wadani camp are slowly starting to attack Kulmiye back for being in HSM pockets even theories of their business man supporting the Houthis rebels to get them against UAE, this is getting crazy, Wadani could not hide as effectively as Kulmiye snakes are in the wanlaweyne politics.
Now there is rumours Guleed was a double agent for HSM all along, since conveniently his alliance with Sakiin collapsed and before that with Sheikh Shariif, you have to love the Damul Jadiid camp, they are the most savvy strategic people I have ever seen infiltrating everywhere, most corrupt also, the circus side show continues.
The way they were able to delay the elections, and it might get delayed again because they are holding up the Somaliland MP selections (conveniently) is a master stroke so is stopping the election from taking place in Xalane which the entire IC was after, HSM is waiting for the change at the UN and America, but the list of enemies are growing, if he pulls this off, I take my hat off to him, at the moment his changes are slim, hence he is pushing for another delay
nah nigga
Cafis man.
