If only he was our leader

While the government continues to hold these useless talks that are not going anywhere you have turks conspiring with the walaweyns to undermine us from the inside. No one else is willing to address this because we are too busy arguing about stupid politics and which clan will be running for presidency and who will support them. Any of the so called "Suldaan" who thinks he has the mandate to speak for the people to foreign goverments needs to be locked up. This isn't the pre-colonial era illiterate fools!

Xildhibaan Salli calee. man Somaliland Suldaans just want to go istanbul for holiday. Nothing serious let them go. I am sure Neither turkey nor wanlaweyns can change their mind.

Why does Turkey want a bunch of illterates to talk about something as important as the partitioning of a country??
Most Oday dhaqameeds can neither read nor write.

They want Oday dhaqameed because they know that they can be more easily influenced and paid off than the politicians.
Imagine someone who can't read or write never been involve in politics/governing discussing agreements or issues of national scope that are beyond their knowledge? They can easily get them to sign off on anything like federalizing Somaliland or participating in the 2016 elections.

War they can go knock a few turkish girls in Izmir for all I care, but they shouldn't be claiming to represent the people like they are a government.

Turkey is one of the biggest supporters of terrorism in the world. They are the number one supporters of ISIS. we must get rid of these idiots.

All the Madax dhaqameed (minus Suldaan Xiiray) are against these so-called talks being
pushed by the Turkish state.





I also believe Suldaan Xiiray was forced to then make a statement to "clarify" what he meant.


I would ask you all to cease insulting Salaadiinta Soomaaliland
They are much more in tune with the thinking of the masses than those
cheap politicians whose only claim to fame is being a PhD candidate
for some cheap course about political theories.

Are Oday Dhaqmeed the same as Guurti different?

They are different.

The Guurti is made up of prominent men from all the clans of Somaliland.
They do not inherit their position and most importantly are an arm of Qaranka JSL.
In theory there should some sort of selection process however in the 25 years Sl has existed a method of selection for the Guurti has not been agreed on.

Odey dhaqameedyo are the traditional leadership of the clan. This includes Salaadiin,Ugaasyo and Garaado. Their position is inherited and they are independent of the state.

Caaqilo are elected/chosen/selected by the members of each subsubsub clan (basically those paying diya together). The caaqil represents each diya paying group in their dealings with each other and the state. They are independent (having been selected by those they represent) but they are payed by the state.

Well that's dandy, that they came out condemning these superficial talks.In any case the turks need to be kept an close eye on.

That I agree with ...especially after their interference in Syria, I would not
put it past them to try the same in Somaliland.
