Bro, @aliade34120 . Two self-appointed patriots, one sees foreign agents behind every desk, the other performs anti-colonial outrage while tweeting in perfect English to a Western audience.

The irony writes itself
When loyalty to Somalia means attacking every ally but never your funders, you’re not resisting foreign control, you’re just bidding for a better sponsor.

@MPDrAbib , Full Salary, Empty Seat: The Abdillahi Hashi Standard.
🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴
MP Dr. Abdillahi Hashi Abib now lectures government on responsibility, leadership, and billion-dollar proposals.
Bold words, from someone who hasn’t shown up to most parliamentary sessions. But his paycheck? Always on time.
No bills introduced. No debates attended. No votes cast. Just absenteeism, press releases, and self-praise; paid for by the Somali people. Somalia deserves lawmakers, not loud critics with perfect attendance at the bank.

A Masterclass in Legal Illusion – Responding to Sheikhnor Abucar Qassim 🧵
🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴
1/7
@SheiknorQassim , Adeer Sheikhnor, your tweet is a dramatic display of political theatre wrapped in legal confusion. You wave around Chapter 7 of the UN Charter like it’s a “Game Over” card ; but either you’ve misunderstood it, or you’re hoping others have. Let’s unpack your misconceptions.
2/7

Chapter 7 status does not nullify sovereignty. Many sovereign nations have operated under Chapter 7 mandates ; Iraq, Liberia, even Haiti. It authorises measures to maintain peace and security, not to revoke statehood. Somalia is not a UN protectorate.
3/7
You cite UNSC Resolutions 2628 (2022) and 2687 (2023) as “deadlines” missed. But resolutions are not contracts, and the UN system isn’t your personal stopwatch. These are political benchmarks, not legal time bombs.

🧵 Thread: Why Somalia’s Unity Remains Legally Intact Under International Law 🇸🇴⚖️
1/4
Somaliland’s 1991 independence claim lacks legal force. On 1 July 1960, British Somaliland & Italian Somaliland united to form the Somali Republic. This union was later confirmed in the 1961 national constitutional referendum, where 90% of voters approved unity. 🗳️
2/4
Though the Act of Union wasn’t perfectly ratified, the 1961 Constitution, approved by a national vote, gave the union full constitutional and democratic legitimacy. In law, popular ratification cures legal flaws. Somaliland leaders held top federal roles for decades. 🏛️

This is not Article 65 on MP qualifications — this is Article 65 on the Speaker and Deputy Speakers.

Here’s the key part
🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴
Clause (3): “Before assuming office, the Speaker shall relinquish any official position in a political party, and shall be strictly neutral in the performance of his or her functions.”
This requirement to relinquish political party office applies explicitly only to the Speaker, not the Deputy Speakers.
•The phrase is: “the Speaker shall relinquish…” — it does not say “the Speaker and Deputy Speakers shall relinquish…”

There’s a growing myth that a Deputy Speaker must be politically neutral—even unaffiliated. Let’s unpack that using the Somali Constitution.
🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴
Article 22 actually protects political rights: the right to form parties, participate in political life, and express opinions. That applies to everyone, including MPs and Deputy Speakers.
There’s no constitutional bar to a Deputy Speaker being in a political party, or even leading one. Somalia’s Article 65 sets MP eligibility, and party affiliation isn’t listed as disqualifying.
