I should have worded it better, as I meant selected by elected. The average citizen has no say on these selections. The average citizen in Hirshabelle is struggling with making the ends meet, violence, corruption, floods, unemployment, food insecurity, periodic clannish clashes that cause one to be internally displaced, etc. Clan militias (like Suudi's) are often responsible for half or more of the struggles the average citizen faces. So, your quote doesn't apply to majority of the people of Hirshabelle. In fact, they detest leaders like Suudi who by his own admission did nothing beneficial for them.

He asked not to be elected if they deem him unfit, and despite that, people who know he wouldn't benefit Hirshabelle still went ahead to elect him. Someone from the young generation would have been better.

It the just the way of the world we live in today, people voting against their own interests. This is not the first time people have voted against their own interests and it certainly won't be the last.

why do you always mask your hatred for hawiye and anyone against farmaajo with sarcasm?

you can't really fault anyone but farmaajo here, who's refused to get along with anyone in Somalia.

hopefully, we see him in court for all the crimes he committed. inshallah.

Congrats muuse suudi yalaxow. Great man. He is blunt he is the man who shut down dirty woqoyis for us . He told professor samatar Mahan goofkaagi maha . Aboow borama aad. He said to cabdulahi beerdoofaar. Xaa sheega iga siiko . Ha ii salaamin weysada iga jabinaysa. Beer naageed Aya Ku jira la sheega. Hahaha wonderful guy.

Just checked Wikipedia's page of Suudi to refresh my memory; the man does have a long rap sheet:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musa_Sudi_Yalahow

He has done more harm to his own clan compared to rival clans. Instead of making tawba & retiring from public life, he shows no regret or remorse about his past deeds.
