1/5 Saaka hadduu Allaah idmo waxaan hadal ku saabsan xaaladda bani-aadannimo ee Soomaaliya ka jeedin doonaa Hoolka Shirweyneyaasha # XXVI ee ku yaalla Qasriga Umadaha ee Geneva, Switzerland. 2/5 Waxaan ku nuux-nuuxsan doonaa in ay isa suran yihiin xaalufinta iyo dikhaynta deegaanka oo dhinac ah iyo abaaraha iyo daadadka is-fan-saaran ee dalkeenna darandoorriga ugu socda.

To revamp the Somali government and its international partners' war on Al Shabaab with the intention to degrade and eventually defeat the terrorist outfit is one unequivocally stated paramount policy objective of @HassanSMohamud's second presidency. It is therefore going to be Prime Minister @HamzaAbdiBarre and his cabinet's first and most vital job to come up with a realistic and comprehensive plan that includes religious awareness, or as President @HassanSMohamud put it "reclaiming our religion that Al Shabaab stole," ...

A plane crash in Mogadishu AAIA 🛫. I see a black thick smoke billowing up in the air from the South side of the airport.

If it was landing or just took off I do not know. Someone told me it is Jubba Airways and it has just departed. It is a 💔 in any case. #Salaamaat. Please note I just saw a black thick smoke and people who looked shocked talked to me. I stay near the airport. There is nothing other than the smoke I'm 100% sure. And I am shocked to the core as I tweet.
إنّا لله وإنّا إليهِ رَاجعُون.

Yet another Somali Young Hero: A Tribute to Late Nasteh Dahir Farah (penned on June 08, 2008)

The sad news of the departure of Nasteh Dahir Farah from this world has been received with shock and dismay all over the world; all ages, races, and all professions. The gloomy cloud that carried the horrible message had transcended the mediocre Somali clan identifications. A Somali Hero has Really Fallen.

Mr. Farah’s voice still rings in our ears.

The restoration of diplomatic relationship between Somalia and Kenya is good step towards the right direction. But it is a bit naïve to deem it will last.

The misunderstanding between Somalia and Kenya has a name and it is called Jubaland. The last two Somali presidents before Farmaajo butted heads with Kenya over Jubaland and the one after Farmaajo will likely do the same.

1/4 - PARLIAMENT SEATS MARKETPLACE NOW OPEN
As per highly reliable sources, agents of some regional presidents started taking advance deposits from federal parliamentary aspirants 2020/1 after Dhusamareb 2. Some of them could be cover for Al Shabaab terrorist group. @UNSomalia 2/4 - This is dangerous because the next parliament will not only lack clan legitimacy, but parliament seats will be forbidden-expensive if not totally off-limits to those whose clan doesn’t control a region. Starting bargaining price is said to be $200K. @UKinSomalia

Rumors abound that @US2SOMALIA is pushing for a return to 2016/7 elections in Somalia.
Do not buy that for a second as this will:
1- Give Al Shabaab a role in the next Somalia government.
2- Al Shabaab is a threat not only in Somalia but also in the US.
3- @US2SOMALIA ≠ stupid. 4- Return to 2016/7 model of elections in Somalia will also deny Somali citizens the right to choose their leaders.
5- Throughout the history, US promoted and paid millions of dollars for democracy, human dignity and right for the small man to count.

1/5 “...it became apparent that our Office needs to speak in support of National Independence Electoral Commission (NIEC) Bill.”
Reads a memo (dated Jan. 27, 2015) I sent to @OmarSharmarke, the then newly appointed Prime Minister of Somalia. 2/5“This Bill will have its third reading on Wednesday, January, 28, 2015. Then after five days, it will go to the floor for a vote.” the memo adds.
