Such as Ina Sayid, Janan, Fartaag, Aw Xirsi etc being allied with madoobe. And Xidig, seeraar, oomar, farax maaclin etc allied with farmaajo. Personally I would welcome an educated ogaden/mareexaan technocrat with the right credentials to lead JL, but Madoobe has had this seat for 7 years and at this point the people are tired of him. His election was also laughably rigged to the point where he brought a no-name man and a random lady to compete with him. So to me it is fine and even preferred for the shisheeye to think there is a divide between OG/MX since that is what they would wish for. However Ogaden and mareexaan have always been historically close and this little political spat will not dent that kinship even a little. Since we are connected by blood and xeer this political issue will also be solved. This was the marexan ugaas with ina cagjar a few weekS ago in DDS having a meeting. And even he as MZ has not even involved himself in this mess and has remained neutral.SultanOrder wrote: Tue Oct 15, 2019 9:00 pm Horta, do you guys think if Madoobe is removed marexaan will control Kismaayo? Once the federal government shows it can remove the president of Jubbaland what will you guys do when they want to remove a guy you guys like?
I am a federalist at heart, I don't want xamar to have anything to do with JL in terms of control or dictating how things go. I also believe that farmaajo is a wadani at heart and his choice of candidate would probably do a good job as opposed to other FGS leaders who might have insidious motives. The right leadership is needed to bring all groups to the table and hash out real power sharing and other crucial aspects. If madoobe had that quality he would've actually held a formal reconciliation, enhanced security by working with the various gobols, not siphon off money intended for other regions into kismaayo, not undermine our interests in the city, called out kenya on their repeated violations etc etc. But he has done none of these things and has even doubled down on his alliance with Kenya during this time where the maritime dispute is ongoing. Therefore it's past the point of return with him. Competent leadership and progress in the next step for this state as well as continuing to strengthen the security forces. Just my 2cents.
Damn, the new Ugaas Keyse is much younger than I thought. He must have been a child when Ugaas Siraaji was killed in 2001? This picture pretty much explains to me why Ugaas Barre Taakooy was the caretaker Ugaas (ku simaha Ugaaska) for so long.
I was going to say his age will bring vibrancy to the northern Sade but looking him up he seems to be a head of me. Is he a diaspora baby? He already started building himself a fancy center in Caabudwaaq
