Over 250 MPs whose their membership is based on their tribes - how embarrassing is that? I think most of MPs have their part in past wars and some are once been a warlords. Some even are well known for corruption.

I think everyone currently involved in parliament should be fired and new ones should be brought over from diaspora, no Somali from Somalia can be trusted to manage whole of Somalia.

9 warlords? That's 9 warlords too much.

It may be fair, but tribes shouldn't influence the decision. I don't see English parliament electing black people because there's too few black people.

haxxor,

If you are given 3 months to select a parliament and make everyone happy, how would you go about doing it.


khalid,

the entire list of parliamentarians hasn't been released, but I don't recall any warlords on the first list.

Actually most Somalis, except those who are deemed as .5, LOVE the clan parliament. Best thing sliced laxoox to most Somalis.
