Absame Education from a real reer Waamo
Posted: Wed Jun 13, 2012 12:30 pm
Let me educate you my dear Absames. Specially our Sujui and Galti Absames or those raised abroad.
I will educate you about Kismayo.
Long ago, 11 generations, we were the first somali to conquer the region. at the begining of the 17 hundreds, when Absame totally controlled Ogadeniya, Liban province was the last to be taken. when all Gallo madow (Oromo, borona etc) were pushed out of Ogadeniya proper. Absame did not rest. explorers were sent straight away.
at the behest of Ugaas Magan, Ugaas Nuur Cubudiyes Great Grand father, in the mid 1750s, there were constant reports of arabs raiding a jareer like people to the east of liban province, todays Jubbalnd and NFD (northern kenya, known as Sawaxiil province by the arabs who raided them in the coasts.)
keep in mind, there were no somalis then. Oromos lived as far as the Hawd, even todays lascanood was not somalis till Absame cleared it out. we were the first. the only somali group to have advanced outside of somali territories.
once the Jubbas, Kismayo included and northern kenya was pacified. the son of Ugaas Magan, TimoCase ( great great granfather of Sultan Ahmed Magan) was chosen to lead the Jubbas and NFD, permission granted from the seat of the Ugas of Absame in Ogadeniya, Maara Caate settlelment in Qooraxay.
for the next 150 years, till the early 1900s, Borona, Samburu, Waponi, Maasi, Turkana, jareer weyn etc were pacified, Absame pushed them towards central kenya away from NFD, Jubbas or they were subdued. slavery, camel herding becoming the norm of the conquered jareers.
by the late 1800s, marehan was pushed into Gedo as punishment a few decades early by the Great Ugaas Nuur cubudiye, they were shipped from shilabo for their rebelious ways. this is how marehan came to gedo, ask any elder.
Absame clans such as Mohamed Subeer, Cawlyahan, maqabul, cabdalla, cabduwq, bartire, galmise, bah gari etc are the masters of the south aka jubbas and NFD.
the hartis faced a terrible drought in puntland, they send delegates to Qooraxay, Ogadeniya, asking if they can be relocated to the fertile region of jubbas. the Ugaas busy with ethiopians, italians and british and the brits fighting the sayid in somaliland tells the hartis to approach the sultan Ahmed Magan, this is the early 1900s, and the majerteens and other hartis are granted permission to settle in kismayo. this is when they develop their famous moto ; '' in kismayo we buy wheat with tano, in puntland it costed us a gold once''. slave produced food was cheap thnaks to also the fertile ground
by this time in the south, all absame is occupied in a war in the south too with british and italians. the war wages from 1909-23, from the valleys of nairobi till kismayo. bartire, mohamed subeer, cawlyahan, maqabul etc are at a fully fledged war that will decide if somalis are first conquered and secondly Christianized.
this is when the british general leading the campaign calls ogadens: the most formidable foe we have ever fought in the African continent.
after decades of domination, marehans sees his chance to escape his langab status, he joins with the british, when the great cawlyahan prince Abdirahman mursal gets hold of marehan fighters, he would dump their entire live stock and food stock into the river, to starve them, this is for their aggression and support of the white men, many of them become shoe shiners in the gedo region for the white men.
most people assume the war in the south started as british colonialism only. but the fueling factor was 3 cawlyahan man that wanted to sell slaves to 5 arabs in lamu , arabs refuse the sell siting British banding the slavery trade. the absame men incensed, cut of the heads of the men and send their horses dragging it to the eastleigh bases of the British. the year 1909, the British declare war on the ''Arrogant Ogadens''
after a few years of living in kismayo, at first the dhulbahante joined absame against the Europeans in the south. but majerteen tried his usually crap to take advantage of Absame been busy with the Europeans.
the Cawlyahan prince, Abdirahman Mursal instructs Mohamed Subeer sultan that kismayo is his territory and should deal with the harti in kismayo trying to take the city whilst absame is busy, Moahmed Subeer sultan Ahmed Magan pissed off at being interrupted from his war at Habsweyn in the NFG with britissh and their sanburu slaves, marches 120 men to kismayo, eliminates the marjerrtens, dhulbahante incensed, takes majterteen side, this becomes harti vrs moahmed subeer,
the sultan Ahmed Magan, looking for a quick victory in kimsayo, to get back to Habasweyn, refuses to negotiate with dhulbahante and gives them an ultimatum: stay out of this fight or join your harti, the year 1921, dhulbahante joins harti, the great Sultan whips harti into shape, desalinates 400 men in one day. genocide they scream. they asked for it sultan Ahmed writes to the Europeans. he gets back to war.
these soft harti fishermen arrogant at trying to steal the kismayo city when Absame was busy were no match for the mohamed subeer warrriors. these wariors always aimed to sharpen their fighting skills, when their ancestors conquered the south somalia/kenya, they would practice war with their chatel slaves to stay focused, by pretending to free slaves at the raining season, they would hunt them down one by one and bring them back. this they did if they copuld not find an enemy
needless to say, the harti were whipped, moahmed subeer still being fair gave them 2 choices: either live here and remain in business with no politcs or be shipped back to puntland. many chose to stay and get on with business
as a eternal reminder, the area they were defeated in was named '' Lafah Harti'' by the recommendations of reer cabdille men to the sultan Ahmed. harti tried changing the name in the 1960s to ''Lafah nimanka'', Absame Mps in the parliament fought hard against it, the name so remains, just a few miles outside of Kismayo. an eternal message to our enemies.
needless to say too, Absame was defeated by the powerful europeans, by 1942, a delegation in the south headed by sultan Ahmed ( grandfather of current sultan Cabdi cali Sonkar) signed the letter and Italian carved up with the british as punishment , the brits divided their lands into 3 nations.
come somali independence, in 1960, every Absame man had the terrible memory in their minds of the 64 war with Ethiopia, Absame MPs rally parliament to send fighters to the border, they did, the UN gets invloved to stop the war.
Absame also witnesses the 1963-67 war with sujui and new kenyan army fighting as the sujuis wanted to join somalia. absame in jubbland invites their sujuis cousins to stay with them for the remainder of the war. at the end, it took the british and amercans creating bases in kenya to stop the war.
sujuis are told kenya will not be divided, but are offered government seats in kenya etc. when kenyan banjuns complain they have been in kenya for 500 years and are not entiled to it: president kenyata tells them '' Ogaden spilled blood for 4 years, till you do that, dont bother with us''
Absame in jubbland devices a plan: they would have to take charge of the somali military and personally intervene with Ethiopia first to get the Ogaden,
in the late 60s, they look for a partner in crime: in 67 the majerteens came to power, they will rule till 69 when one of their own assassinates their president.
Absame exploits this: he notices that majerteens main weakness is that darood was not behind them. idoor is also angry for not having a chance to rule the country, haweeye ruled since 60-67, first president and passes it on democratically.
absame does a 2 prong attack: first he tells majerteen he will stand behind him as the president of somali, but in return for major favors,
absame demands his conditions: minister of defense minister, minister of interior, minister of economy, chief spy, 8 of the top 10 generals, chief navy commander( current ONLF leader got the position from absame elders who planned it) , ambassador to Ethiopia (to gather intelligence),
majerteen busy and hungry for presidency, never asked why absame wants such military and finance based positions? specially since they just finished a war a few months ago with kenya. anyway, mjs ask them to sweeten the deal: Absame says they will give them all the 3 Mp seats in kismayo: they wet their appetite, considering all the 3 seats in kismayo were absame and this glorious city they got for 2 terms only, till 1975 when the deal ends.
but Absame also asks mjs to increase the stakes: mj asks what we wanted: we demanded MP seats in hargeysa, Hiiran, beledweyn, bakool, smaller parts of somaliland etc. they could no figure out why we wanted such seats. absame wanted to use their local mps seats to gather support for a war against Ethiopia, but we got it any way. and got build the support over the years
sadly to say the alliance died after 2 years when an mj shot their president because his brother was killed by the presidents. by the time siad barre came to power, we had the necessary men in place to build the army and encourage the nation to wage the war we did in Ogaden 77.
Absame did not give a shit who was in charge by now, they had placed men in strategic locations militarily not to be fused and still maintained their Mps in non absame places like hargeysa, hiirran etc.
kismayo was simply placed into absame back again once siad barre started to karbash majerteens in the late 70s. the deal was for only 2 consecutive parliament elections, see how there is no mention of merehan: because they never lived in the city till the 90s civil war as refugees.
born in kismayo myself, my family moved to kismayo in 1853, a year before sayid was born and each and every absame that conducted the plan was either from afmadow/kismayo or were sujis that fled kenya during the 63-67 war. most of them are dead, but my grandfather is one of the few alive to have been the architecture of the plan.
the 77 Ogaden war was planned more then a decade before.
thanks to rebellious somali tribes, they fucked up our chances of freeing Ogadeniya, if only hutus, majerteens and idoors did not get support to over throw somalia.

lots of information....
Kulahaa, we gave them two options, were you a colonial power as well?
