How did Somalia destroy the colonial borders when it did not even exist at that time many somali territories are under Ethiopia, Kenya in this present day. The British left Somaliland thank to it's people.

British Somaliland & Italian Somaliland was foreign projects intended for division of Somalis. Thanks to Nationalists from both former protectorates Unification was realised and the blue flag was created

That is a thing of the past. Somalis are more divided now than ever even compared to when the colonials set foot in east africa.

I will support a unified Somalia under the following conditions:
1. 50% of the members of Parliament must hail from the North.
2. If Mogadishu is kept as the capital, then there should be extensive revitalization efforts in infrastructure for the Northern cities (Hargeisa, Burco, Berbera, Borama)
3. Those responsible in the events that occurred in 1988 be brought to to the International Court for war crimes.

If we're expected to unify, then we shouldn't be treated like 2nd class citizens like in the past and we should get compensation for what has occurred to us in the past.

You blame the SOUTH of not being fair to the NORTH, when you're not being fair to your own NORTHERN REGIONS.

You mentioned Hergeisa, Burco, Berbera as Northern Cities, as if they're the only NORTHERN TOWNS. You included Borama, because it's a well known city and you wanted to squeeze it in there to try and seem "unbiased".

The problem is not SOUTHERNERS taking over everything. The problem is Beesha Isaaq with cuqdad and greed.

You mention the event of 1988, but what about the event of 1991, the massacre of the Daaroods both in Northern Somalia and Southern Somalia?

If she was Anti-Somaliland would you still welcome her, although she's from Awdal, as she claims?

When people stop calling Puntland the land of Marjentenia ( ) then we'll stop calling Somaliland Isaaqland.

The outcomes will be the same, ofcourse the hardcore Issaqs will vote for separation, but there will be many Issaqs as well as majority of Gadabursi and like 99% of Harti will vote for Unity. The picture would be alot different if all the clans I mentioned above were on the same wagon, however they aren't and we have take that in account. There will be no preferential treatment as there's no special qabiil, I say Somaliland should put side their pride and come to the table for negotiation.

A man of truth.
