In 2016 #Farmaajo ran a populist campaign jam-packed with Somalia nationalism & anti #Ethiopia rhetoric. Today he has become a darling of the Ethiopians whereby he is using the same Ethiopian forces to achieve his selfish political ambitions.

In his first attempt to consolidate power, Farmaajo assembled a team of his inner circle, relatives & friends who were unqualified and who had questionable character. They were appointed to some of the most important and critical positions in govt.

In his first 10 days in Office Farmaajo's promised to eliminate Alshabab within 2 years of his presidency. However as it currently stands, the insecurity in #Somalia is more worse than he found it, with #Somalia's capital #mogadishu bearing the most brunt of Alshabab attacks.

In federalism, it is the prerogative of FMS to conduct their own elections. However when Farmaajo was unable to install his puppet leadership in Jubbaland, he abused his power by sending his loyal troops to Gedo in order to ensure he dominates the affairs of #Jubaland.

He undermined federalism by installing his puppet leadership in SW, Galmudug & Hirshabelle without the participation of local inhabitants. In SW he used #Ethiopian mercenaries to kidnap Presidential candidate Mukhtar Robow & killed protesters who were against their invasion.

Without the approval of parliament Farmaajo entered into a secret pact with #Eritrea's Afewerki to train Somalia forces so as to use them for political reasons.
The troops were later deployed in #Tigray where many of them were killed as attested by their parents.

In Farmaajo's 4 years rule Alshabab has gained ground especially in #mogadishu & its environs due to his current misplaced priorities of politicising security.
It is during this period that Somalia experienced the most devastating terrorist attacks in our history.

Farmaajo was in one occasion pictured with a female suicide bomber who killed #Mogadishu Mayor Engr Yarisow.
Today victims of the attack have been deprived justice & compensation. Some of the public officials who facilitated the attack are still serving in his govt.

Somalia's security sector reform has been a big lie. Despite Farmaajo's blatant lie of soldiers being paid on time, on several occasions troops have protested demanding for unpaid salaries.
This is why #Mogadishu residents are victims of constant extortions.

Somalia sovereignty is at stake. From onset Farmaajo was against HSM taking the maritime case to ICJ even after negotiations with Kenya failed
He made no credible progress to ensure #Somalia gets justice. He instead frustrated & fired competent lawyers thus compromising case

Farmaajo's misplaced priorities in security, political deceit and his inability to spearhead efforts for the enactment of a new constitution has been a major setback for Somalia to achieve 1P1V.

In #Somalia's history Farmaajo is the only Somali President who doesn't mean what he says - When he says right he means left.
In 2016 he is the same person who advocated for a free fair election BUT today he is the same person gerrymandering and undermining elections.

Today Farmaajo is in the dock for same reasons of elections delay, extension that he was complaining against HSM.
He does not mean good for the country.
Farmaajo - A government walking on the wrong side of history.
