This firefight in Somalia took place on the day before Analyst/Political Commentator @AbdiwahabSheik7's abduction.

I can't help but notice that this article is un-bylined and was very quickly tweeted by @Dibjir, the boss of @SahanResearch whose twitter account basically consists of a running commentary of this affair, taking a firmly pro Roble line. 
I very much hope that neither @Dibjir nor his fellow Horn of Africa misinformation peddler @rashidabdi, both ex-@CrisisGroup had anything to do with it's creation, but I suspect that this is an unrealistic hope.
This is @AbdiwahabSheik7's tweet on the day of the showdown at the Somalia National Intelligence service.
The following day he was abducted in downtown Nairobi by four men in a FWD vehicle with a clearly visible number plate.

Kenyan Police have denied involvement in his abduction.
Abdiwahab's wife has accused Roble of asking the Kenyan Govt. to arrest her husband.
A Habeus Corpus writ has been filed against the Kenyan Govt. in relation to the abduction.

Back in July, shortly after the TPLF launched its offensive on Afar and Amhara - the offensive that the US/EU and UN failed to acknowledge till the end of August - Abdiwahab, a staunch and informed critic of the TPLF tweeted this.

And moments later @RAbdiAnalyst replied saying this.
The tweet is the beginning of a thread looking a little more deeply at @SahanResearch and its lengthy and unique role in Horn of Africa misinformation operations.

All of which begs some questions:
What connection is there between Roble's NISA appointee and the EU/UK/TPLF?
Who is paying and consuming SAHAN's so called intelligence?
What is @Dibjir really doing in Somalia, and is he doing it with UK/EU blessing?

While these questions right now relate to Somalia, very similar questions could be asked about @SahanResearch and the War in Tigray.
Who have they been working for whist running interference for the TPLF?
Does the @CrisisGroup have any ongoing connection to them?

And if he EU/UK/US/UN are clients of @SahanResearch, what are these clowns telling them?
