Yet the government's tax revenues have increased but where is this money going? Taxes taken by the failed, so called "federal government" are almost exclusively from Hawiye businesses. Farmaajo and his corrupt family and friends are eating good with tax income from Hawiye in Mogadishu. The Bakaara Market, Mogadishu Port, Adan Abdullah Airport and other Hawiye businesses are all forced to pay tax. Puntland and Jubbaland are not required to pay tax to the federal government but get to keep their tax revenues, whilst still getting aid money and their share of tax revenues from Mogadishu city. Funnily enough, a Hawiye can't become the police chief or president in Garowe, Kismaayo, Garbaharey or Boosaaso. But in Mogadishu, a Darood can be both the president and police chief. Mogadishu is not allowed to create a federal member state, while Puntland and Jubbaland are allowed to have states and share resources and power.
But where is Mogadishu's tax money going? There is no security. No military. No schools. No hospitals. What is Farmaajo doing with this money. These are all important questions.
So Nabar & Naxdin is corrupt and has failed. We all know that. But they have a clever propaganda operation where they distract from their failure and corruption in Mogadishu, by blaming Somaliland or creating political conflict with Somaliland using their hired social media operatives. Usually under the old false pretext of "Somali unity" or "unionism" which is a code word for continuation of old Faqash ideology of the failed dictator of Siad Barre. The attack on Somaliland and Mohamed BK is an excellent example of that. Over 100 people are killed in Mogadishu, the police chief and so called President Farmaajo attempt to hide the true death toll. Then the Nabar & Naxdin social media operatives start an online campaign to blame Somaliland and Mohamed BK.
Nabar & Naxdin is purely driven by attempts to beguile Hawiye people while continuing to steal their tax income and at the same time promote their sick hatred of the Isaaq people of Somaliland. They are killing two birds with one stone. But we must not be gullible and be vigilent against these covert methods. It's what the dictator afweyne (Siad Barre) used before he destroyed the country that once was the Somali Republic, all whilst enriching his people through booli qaran appropriation of national assets and tax income from Mogadishu and Berbera ports.
Instability and conflict in Mogadishu was highest under Abduliahi Yuusuf and Farmaajo. We must also never forget how Abdulaahi Yuusuf brought in Ethiopian Amhara troops who killed 10,000 people in Mogadishu and raped, pillaged, bombed the city into oblivion. Reer Somaliland have learned the lessons from 1988, but it appears the true inhabitants of Mogadishu (Hawiye) have not learned the lessons from 2006 onwards.
Only Hawiye can secure Mogadishu, their home city. Only they have their own interest at heart in creating security and stability. Only they will secure the peace. This picture speaks a thousand words.
