It's an ideology used by highly corrupt Somali politicians in Mogadishu to enrich themselves.
They use many good hearted people, who mean well.
They convince many ordinary Somali people to become unionists. That they need to work for the (fake) Unionism project.
Until those very people become a threat to their corrupt practices. They become expendable and they kill them.
Unionism has always been a front for a group of people who want to control all Somalis and corruptly appropriate our common resources.
The likes of Farmaajo, Hassan Sheikh, Sheikh Sharif, Sharif Sakiin, Madoobe etc.
What have unionists ever done for the regions? For Somaliland? For Bay and Bakool? For Gedo or Puntland? For Kilika shanaad? For NFD in Kenya? For Djibouti? Even for the people of Mogadisbu. Nothing. Nada. Zilch.
They just want to hoard all Somali power and money in Mogadishu, to enrich themselves and build mansions in Nairobi and Dubai.
