The Total War on Al-Shabab has many obstacles mostly stemming mainly from federal member states (FMS) and dark horses within the security sector. These obstacles need to be addressed immediately to avoid giving space to Alshahab terrorists. Let's start examining FMS

the operation while @PowerOffGrid will install 3kw to 6kw solar system and 2kw solar pump after a well is constructed. This will take 3-4wks, in mean time, we will provide free deisel generator & fuel to save lives before we fully convert the hospital to renewable energy.

improved and strengten Hiiraan admin, but chose to bring AMISOM and insecurity ensued to date. Similarly, @HESharifShAhmed dissolved #BenadirState admin and paved his successors to abuse Mogadishu citizens who are taxed without representation. Rather redeem his political mistakes
He is against #BenadirState to have 13 senators and included in the electoral process, but ok Somaliland & Gedo to be included who don't pay god damn taxes- worse an Ethiopian @KhadarGulaid & Hashi Senate leader are unconstitutionally given a power to select Somaliland MPs.
Up to now, 110 political parties registered (provisionally) in #Somalia,

The current dispute & delay over the indirect election is due to ONE factor: the outgoing president is scheming to openly and unabashedly engineer his reelection;

The outgoing Prez had a freehand in 3 local elections and he rigged them ALL, hence the VITAL & sacred duty to protect the national election;

During elections in #Hirshabelle & #Galmudug, no credible contender stood against Farmaajo allies because the process was rigged & outcome was already known;

Transition plan is security plan handing over security responsibilities from AMISOM to Somali security forces. Initial plan to transition to UN mission is not an option anymore. #Somalia

UNSOM, UN mission formed to assist AMISOM, focusing broadly on politics and security. In 2018, #Somalia’s government worked with international actors to develop transition plan. Assessment on five regional states indicated effective local security forces and weaker SNA.
#Somalia’s national security council has endorsed a transition plan which had three phases: phase 1, up to 6/19, phase two, 6/19-12/19, phase 3, 1/20-12/21. The council of ministers of Somalia and UN Security Council have endorsed the plan too. The plan had three areas of focus
LIVE THREAD: on Current Political Development in #Somalia. Here is my analysis on what's happening now at the federal parliament. First some background. Deputy speaker Muudey dismissed the Parliamentary Oversight Committee last week for publishing a damning report against MoF
The report accused corruption & misappropriation for Minister of Finance Mr. Beyle. The Admin reacted by bribing several MP's in the Committee with $10k each, in addition to dismissing the committee while Speaker Mursal was away for a personal leave in Turkey.
Upon returning, Mursal wasn't happy with the infringement of the Admin in the Parliament. So, he wrote a letter yesterday reinstating the Committee & calling Muudey's move not only baseless but out of the legal bounds.
