This is one of the few things that Sade and Absame agree on. This change will take place over the next 4 to 5 years and will involve the resettlement of refugees into the Juba Valley. The majority of these refugees will be Darood who fled the civil war. Already minority communities in Jubaland are aware of this and are nervous. The prime farmland from Yoontoy to Buaale will be the focus of this resettlement program. This will make the previous resettlement campaign by MSB look like a picnic trip. It is my belief that the boosting up of Darood numbers in Jubaland will render all non-Darood clans irrelevant. I also believe that Middle Juba will be the focus of the resettlement program. What is funny is that all of this will be accomplished on the International community's dime
The glimmers of this plan can already be seen materializing.

A source at the ministry of Foreign Affairs told the Star yesterday that Nairobi will instead engage with Jubaland, which borders Kenya and where most of those repatriated would return to.
The bantu WaGosha know what is coming, and it is they that will face the most pressure from this demographic transformation of the Juba Valley.

The elder said such a move can result more violence in Jubba regions, since people will no longer be in position to accept persecution, massacre, land grabbing and looting as happened in early 90ties. He said the ongoing plans of refugee repatriation is aimed to grab the land of Wagosha community.
