Marehan and Ogaden are united on Kismaayo.

Kim-

I disagree with the president on a policy level, not personal. I find odd how he wants to sideline the people that most invested in the fight against Al Shabaab and only from what seems to be a tribal perspective when the very capital he sits in and was the home of all Somalis has been monopolizer by a clan. Policy has priorities and equity in Mogadishu which s the nation's capital supercedes all as a place to make a statement.

As for now Kismaayo and Jubbaland will be decided by its local stakeholders.

Fifthly, Jubbaland is a local project, for the local people and by the local people, but the President should and will be included in it at the initial stages. That is what federal systems are all about. Any president, be it a Darod one, a Hawiye one, a Dir one or a Rahanweyn one, would have reacted the same way Hassan Sheikh Mohamud did regarding Jubbaland. What kind of madness is this when it seems that the Kenyan army officials have more say in what is going on in Kismayo and Jubbaland than the Government of Somalia? This is a strip of land that immediately borders Kenya and people here are expressing their outrage over the President's concern? The Kenyans are the same people who tried to trick the previous Somali parliament into signing an agreement to sign off a portion of Somali waters to Kenya. Anything can happen.

If that is the case then why did he claim that Hiiraan will be allowed to form its own administration but Jubbaland will be of his own making? If I am not mistaken this was said on the exact same day, a rather suicidal statement from the newly 'elected president' of a nation as tribal as Somalia.

Perhaps Sheikh Hassan is a good man however his entourage does not reassure, instead it makes him look like yet another qabiiliste placed in the power seat by the West.

If you want to know the character of a man, look at the company he keeps.

What position does Indho-Cadde hold on this government?

I thought warlords were kicked to the curb by excluding them!
