                       Not So Often People Say thank You to Their Leaders

My, Fellow Somalilanders,   I wish to take this opportunity to thank president Ahmed siilanyo for summoning his cabinet at the presidential palace and holding a  two day emergency cabinet conference, televised live on national Tv,  like millions of Somalilanders at home and abroad I was very pleased  to see our commander in chief president A. M.M. Siilanyo is finally listening and fully engage with his electorate and have undertook a very bold, and swift response to his political rivals and critics, whom have been bad mouthing and spreading dirty, smear campaign about the president’s health and leadership style I just want to  say thank you and well done Mr Siilanyo for proving them wrong, you have the full confidence, and support of your country men and women old and young especially the diaspora.

Whilst, I welcome the president’s recent moves visiting Gebilay region a very strategic and important region which contributed to Somaliland’s fast growing local economy at leat 50% I, would also urge  Mr Siilanyo to take a tour of all Somaliland main cities and not just Gebilay  you need to visit Borame, Berbera Burco Ceerigaabo and Laascanood to see you for yourselves how your fellow country men and women are struggling and coping with under the current economic climate.

Despite the economic hardship all these people want is to hear  and see  their  president,  it will gave them self-confidence, and reassurance that their commander in chief is on board, cares engaged and  listening, the people of Somaliland are very proud, resilient they don’t want hand out from you just want good communication strong leadership,

I am very convinced you  have definitely demonstrate that now and before  during the SNM struggle  a very  turbulent period of Somaliland’s  dark history, having said that I don’t believe we the Somaliland diasporas, are doing enough to bring investment and recognition for Somaliland simply because were not fully united that is a’ fact.

    Somalis don't need people from the frame of the diaspora, they need people that could understand what does it mean to sleep with uncertain future looming ahead, a demanding children that require constant needs plus their corrupt politicians. I urge every person from somaliland region to stand up for their right; You are somali and you're right is to have SOMALIA. Diaspora anywhere from everywhere are just after their personal pockets and will not wipe a single drop of tears over your future lost children. Instead, teach your child that SOMALIA is their home and nothing is called "somalilander", be proud of your somali race no matter how much the half habashi creatures are hailing for recognition. So what? Got the recognition? Is your life, your children life going to change for the better? The answer is NO because you got no basic infrastructure, education, health and employment system under the "21 years of progress"'s system. Somali Republic is the real hope, the place for all, you will not be judged because of your tribal association, you live with all somalis and you belong to the only home of somalis;

      Ilyas my friend, Somali Republic died with Gen. Siad Barre and his Military Regime.
      Since then Somalia is up for scraps of all Foreign powers and Alshabab freedom fighters.
      Somaliland restored its de jure to the pre existing conditions of birthright post Independence
      of 1960 from HMG great Britain??? If you think another Union is possible, then think of Djibouti
      to come forward and propose a new way of Djibouti,Somalia, Somaliland could amalgamate
      under a redrafted constitution. Still Somaliland reserves its rights of compensation of human
      genocide and destruction of a whole Somaliland by Govt powers. Still Somaliland also seeks
      justice served against certain high fugitives who were top leadership of that Evil Somalia
      Military Regime. Ilyas talk to IOG okay???
      Cheers.

        Investigations are going on as we speak and 1000s of MASS graves are being found.

        Soon it will be LAW to study the Somaliland Genocide in every school and it will take the NEXT 100Years for Moqadishu to pay the compensation for the loss of life.

        After compensation we also want to arrange an extradition agreement where crimes committed in Somaliland will be tried in courts in Somaliland and the 100s of pirates and shabab prisoners in Mandheera can go back home to Somalia.

        Oh also they can have back the 80,000 Wanlweyn in camps in somaliland.

          You people are unbelievable when one idea runs out you come with another my friend no one is doubting there was a massacre against the Isaaqs by the Barre regime neither was it just done to them only . Excavating this suddenly "found" new "mass graves" to use as a secessionist move will only harm the dead unless your excavating them to have it probably buried then its understandable.

          • Kayse says:

            Forget that emotional widow and his Peruvian scavengers. They are there to find bones to eat and these emotional folks don't get it.

            80% of the Isaaq population believe there was genocide but it was a regime fighting his people are not clan vs clan nor is it something to cry about forever. That chapter has been closed the day we defeated Siad bare together. The day Abdirahman Ali Tuur and Gen. Mohamed Farah Aideed declared the end of Faqash regime.

            The few using such event to justify their runaway are also taking with them Gadabursi, Esse, Hartis and even Garhajis who don't feel the same way. Who feel it was a misfortune that affected the entire Somali race in one way or another and it was time to move on.

            They want to force everyone to celebrate the day Tuur and Aideed defeated Siad even though that will not happen in the south nor 80% of the northern regions.

            They widow cry will just be widow cry and the Peruvian team will milk that….Isaaq internal war killed more Isaaqis than Siad Bare and if Isaaqis are able to let that go, they did also let go of Siad Bare's mistakes.

            Only few habros, widows, grievers and cowards are crying about that. Bring alien excavators too.

            why Kayse u always Forget Esse clan which rule Djibouti without real power sharing. If u want unity of somali start by Djibouti damn, somali are wide majority and issaq and samaron are pro union over there..ur are so nacass seriously.

             
    • helfinger says:

      you call them half habashi and at the same time you are calling them back to join somalis where they belong, you also said Somalia is where they belong. contradiction after contradiction right? do you lack sense of comprehension or you write just for the sake of writing.
      Somaliland is gone saxiiib think of your Somalia and might god help you and your people

  3. Kayse says:

    This is a poor article by a poorly educated cheerleader. Funny how he praises a man who hasn't left the house of Morgan for two and half years. He has not even been to the other side of Hargeisa let alone Las Annod and Erigavo.

    He was recently smuggled into Gabiley because his Council feared his visit would reignite the Dilla-Gabiley farms dispute and bring back the Samaale killings in which they continue to hide the criminals.

    He was smuggled into a mosque in Gabiley al-Shabab style but he quickly fled when was met with an angry reception and protests as well as threats.

    He went back to Morgan's private and occupied residential home.

  4. Dhogoshay says:

    The main reason Somalis cannot move forward from igronaces and hatred tribalist based on greedy jealously the notion say that if my tribe cant have that post of Ministry pm president let rebell and oppose any thing postive they say or do.

    I am very so sorry to see such ill advised narrow minded persons like Mr Kayse full of anger hatred demoralised and defeated attitude should keep his problem to himself and lock him in a mental institution for urgent medical treatment before it is too late I am very concern for that lad.
