I know Ismail Arale and Godane, who is the third emir?
it's current amir is called abu ubayda (ahmed diriye) from gaadsan, dir. Hes cousin of godane from one side
Most people wrongly assume that Adam cayrow was its first Amir..adan cayrow was its military leader and he played fundemental role in its creation. He is the guy who captured yeey in boosaaso in the early 90s but released him bc of the late sheikh abdulqadir gacameey (killed al shabab as ictisam leader) who asked for this since hes a local sheikh who knows how this may...
This guy has conquered the whole of xamar except one street from baraawe
He also fought against the US forces in mogadishu
He was issuing the statements and the movement political positions publically while godane and was unknown...in his era al shabab was cooperating with eritrea, there was ONLF and OLF who got expelled after his death
Godane has become the Amir simply bc the isaaq group had al qaida connections like the al libi, so by controlling the financial network they imposed themselves on the movement not bc they made the army like cayroow, hassan turkey and abu mansour
So when one does or gets captured the other one replaces him bc he has the foreing network!
That's why al shabab is not willing to join ISIS bc of the leadership who r connected with al qaida
I hope you get it! It's a clan organization!
Abdulqadir mumin has now ISIS keys, if he does he will be replaced by another cali saleebaan or atleast another harti!
Warubul kacba I said to someone when there was remours of godane death he will be replaced by his clan. This guy said to me after, subhanallah how did you know it? I laughed and said to him it's not different than SNM
Godane has first arrived the imam shafici military camp in mogadishu established by cayroow
At that time godana had no real power in al shabab except being called "the sheikh" while cayrow was called the mucalim (it doesn't mean teacher, it means hogaamiye in its spiritual sense)
So cayroows official name was رييس مكتب الدفاع which is some sort of minister of war
So cayrow had real control from barawe to xamar, his clan bases
Abu mansour in baay and bakool
Hassan tarki in kismayo(madobe is his brother in law thats why he trusted him)
So godana was their Amir without having real control in the movement due to his clan background
When cayrow was killed godane had a plan to control hawiye so he made mahad karataay closer (he's HG sheegato) he made him the head of amniyaat. This group will later change everything even hassan dahir was forced to be silent
And then godane has put every wali under any ubayda( والى الولات) kinda intetior...He controlled the movement through these guys
Finally he was able to kill every leader who challenged him
Naive people were expecting karataay to replace him not abu ubayda kkkk
There were rumours of karataay linking himself with ISIS after his disappointment...Abu cubayda is weak not like godane so karataay challenges him most of the time until he accepted him as partner where he takes his opinion
Notice: I'm not saying isaaq r dir or not, just how they work together in the south besides any cubayda and godane are close relatives
