How does Reer Gedo view Dabcasar's comments?

Some of his views are conspiratorial but I agree with the general premise of comments.
A politicians job in Somali society is not to build his own political career but should be to build his clans political base so they're set well after he's gone. With the nature of Somalia's collapse what's decided on will have ramifications for decades if not centuries.
I saw people praising Farmaajo when Deni made his comments about how Farmaajo wasn't acting in the interests of Darod or Marehan. Somalia is 4.5, it's MX and Darod political capital he was using and now MX don't have much in return for that investment.
Deni, who was an Islamist Damuljadid minister, is the only person who is in front of HSM. This is because his political base was built for him.
I'm happy that Dabcasar is publicly calling out reer MX, that's much healthier for us than to pretend everything's good and dandy. I'm slacking but Insha'allah I'll be able to help out in Gedo in a personal capacity in the future.
