Cudur fowqal cudur, ma garanweyday in dadka ka agdhow madaxweynuhu ay yihiin dad shicib ah? We have peace that many African countries including yours do not have and our President is safe among us. We monitor those sick individuals like you and they don't dare to come close.
Let your Sharif dare to stroll Mogadishu without the UN armored vehicles and mooryaan around him.
A president! Driving around a private car?? Un heard of, especially in africa!what a peaceful country we have mashallah! Keep up mr president. By the way the article mentioned something about a fisheries ministry,I was just wondering what this ministry is doing in taking advantage of our abundant opportunities and raising international food prices for the benefit of s.land in relation to marketing and implementing fishing ventures.
CHILL MATE SOUTHBOY HATE SHARIIF
Whatever the President Silaanyo stands for in his political dogma, like all the previous
Presidents, Rayaale,Egal,Tuur etc. they all haveone common drawbacks…total negligence to take
official duty trips to the Gobolada W/Bari, Togdheer,Sanaag,Sool. Even the JSL Media Corporates
concentrate on Hargeisa Maroodjex,Awdal and SahilW/G) iwm. Presidents not concerned to give
equal attentions for all the JSL regions are utter failures in my humble yet dignified judgement.
With the exception Rayaale all the other 3 were born in Togdheer. Is it then not a shame that Togdheer
born presidents should ignore their birth right constituencies and get lost in the Capital Hargeisa's
W/Galbeed bloc.(Gaashanbur). I keep wondering and asking when will President Silaanyo take
the pilgrimage official duty trips to his Togdheer,Sool Sanaag constituencies or is it never as usual.
Cheers.
This issue with the SL W/Bari should not be reponsiblity left only to president but to all Somalanders.Improvement of infrasture schools and roads and better living standards will help.Somaliland is on is on the right track and should continue the peace process.Its obivious recognition would speed up the process for moderization but its moving steady and inshallah all of Somaliland will prosper in the future.As long as somaliland is not recognized the issue will not fully be solved.
@Somaliland#1.
Am on the same page with you for generalizing the issues to the level responsibilities of all
Somalilanders. Nevertheless there are always other equally important aspects or factors
that really matter most, such as regional constituencies etc. All regional constituencies have
in the first place to contribute to their Regions who elected them into offices, in addition to the
big picture wellbeings of all general issues of the Public as well as the Private sectors of all the
country's regional provinces. It simply makes no common sense that all those elected officials
and private business corporates from W/Bari Togdheer,Sanaag,Sool, including the Presidents
should not be devoting to benefitting their constituencies..which should be their priority no1.
responsibility.
Cheers.
Somaliland is about 4 million people over a million three thousand live in Hargesia.Berbera is the main port for all Somaliland.Borama and sheekh has always been educational hub.Burco has always livestock.commerce hub.Ceerigaabo has always been main frankinsence trade.laascanood also been sool centre trade for live stock from galkacyo to hawd region in ethiopia.
So, when the President visits the east, Erigavo and Las Anod, what would people like Mohamed Cheers complain about it? Give it a rest. This shows you how stable Somaliland is. The President has already been to Borama, Gabiley (not a warm welcome, I must admit), Berbera, and Burco, he will visit the east. Let us for the time being bask in the photos of a democratically elected President in traditional clothing mingling with his employers. Not many countries in the world can match that!
Hey did you use the word BASK. The same is needed for the W/bari regions…Bask Bask Bask. kkkkkk.
BTW his Basking trips to Borama & Gabiley(not a warm welcome) why and how's that, when the
President Silaanyo's main focuses are concentrated on pleasing the W/Galbeed Regions including
his Berbera Sahil in-laws who are always ungrateful to him and his ISIR.
Cheers.
It would be nice if the president made a visit to Sanaag and Sool but given the security situation in parts of Sool and the lack of roads and infrastracture in Sanaag, its better if he stayed in Hargaysa. However, all the ministers should make regular visits to those regions and listen to the concerns and complaints of the voters there.
Wonderful, was the young man on the cell phone calling his mom I wonder. Mom the president is shaking my hand! I love how its especially the young that are trying to get to know the president. Shows promise, they are the future of this country, and we need to set a good example. God Bless Somaliland and God Bless and Keep our President and Government Ameen!
My previous comment was not posted for whatever reason and is still awaiting approval!!! Anyway, these photos of our president peacefully and happily walking among his people in their neighbourhoods, visiting them In their shops, greeting and talking to our children in their playgrounds, all without any soldier and gun insight is a snapshot of Paradise on Earth. May the Almighty Lord bless our country and people and keep them away from harm and want.
@Abraham
Do you know my comments about our president used to always be deleted until I gave up in comment about him. I think it's a way of SomalilandPess trying to control comments about our presidents but unfortunately all the positive ones is also affected too.
Anways I love looking at pictures of our president peacefully walking in the streets, photos of him with the citizens on eid day, photos of him with the orphan children etc Our president looks humble and our country looks so peaceful and beautiful.
