Is president @M_Farmaajo duping & misleading the public for political mileage?
Any 1 who was following his sentiments can attest to the fact that he literally bragged closing the "canals" i.e the links regional member states + autonomous regions (SL) have with Ethiopia

Contrary to his assertions and what seemed as diplomatic side shows, Ethiopia appointed one of the most decorated and long serving diplomats- Mr.Shamsudin Ahmed as its General Consul in Hargeisa. Shamsudin previously served as Ethiopia's ambassador to Djibouti and Kenya. 
And even more dramatic, the president of Puntland, Said Deni has also received at Puntland Villa the newly appointed Ethiopian General Consul to Garowe- Gen Mabratu Waldo Aragay who will replace his predecessor, Mr. Asmalaash who run the consulate for 13 years.
It's not quite clear whether the two diplomats went through the internationally acclaimed procedures:
1. Approval by the @MofaSomalia after vetting & background checks
2. Briefing & handing over their credentials to the president
The bottom-up approach & sovereignty indicator

As per the public domain, there is no proof that the procedural mechanisms were followed.
This issue puts a big question on the assertions of @M_Farmaajo and the credibility of his claim ( Somalia having one entry point & a senior most master).

Most of the analysts believe that his claim doesn't hold water and little had changed with regards to Ethiopia's infiltration & subsequent dealing with regional states.
It's too early to believe that Ethiopia's way of doing things is something of the past.

Lastest: Somaliland President Muse Bihi who was on an official visit today was rather accorded more or less state level reception.
1. Check the 2 flags (protocol arrangements)- suggesting a state reception
2. Check the statement by @PMEthiopia referring SL as administration!
