Bah Hawaadle only Rer Ugaas Sharmaake and Rer Siyaad have permanent seats. 2 before and now 3.Wareegto is something I support
This is one of my blind spots. I’m assuming it’s the federal senate seats is my first reaction. Fartaag is squatting on the seat which be wareegto to Reer Garaad. Also, Ina Amir Nur have no matalada in Garbaharey as well and no seat in JL which they expressed their disatisfaction several weeks or a month I forgot. There’s other ones I’m forgetting as well. Most importantly there’s no representation for Ceelcadde or Buurdhubo for Reer Garaad or Reer Yusuf in JL as well. Geedweyne should also be a degaan as well. It’s growth is stunning. The reason I’m so pro Reer Garaad is because they are the matriarch of my sub of Reer Yusuf, the same line as Ugaas Yarow. I think Gubbet knows the oral history.Bah Hawaadle only Rer Ugaas Sharmaake and Rer Siyaad have permanent seats. 2 before and now 3.Wareegto is something I support
Bah Hawiyo only Rer Koshin have permanent seats 1
Bah Ogaden all Bah Ogaden have held federal seats, 1 before and now 2.
The Wagardhac are also good at wareegto so it isn't just Bah Ogaden, Celi and Rer Siyaad Hussein struggle with it but they meet the requirements.
I don't know so much about the history of Rer Gedo federal representative apart from the Rer Diini, but the 7 other seats I'd imagine its monopolized by the same juffo and even the same person. I need to do a case study on MX riman representation, already Bah Hawaadle gets an F.
The importants of wareegto is it unifies Beesha Sade, everyone is included, right now you won't be able to tell the difference between Rer Xirsi, Maxamuud Gulled and Rer Dalal, because we have good practice and no monopoly, so its practically one juffo.
Its not just federal reps you need to have good partnership locally as well, Rer Dalal and Rer Siyaad Hussein are also one and the same in the local level, and Celi and Wagardhac are also joining the gang.
To me I understand the previous division in MX Jubaland, because there is zero accountability in Dhaqan level, there is zero grassroot organisations and even zero proper activist, now its started to change, these organs have been build in the last 2 years, and thats why Gedo is united, I just hope it is reflected in federal representation, I want to see same corrective measures as I saw on local level, DCs, Kuxigees, Governor etc.
Look at how Rer Warsame speaking to Bah Hawaadle, this is the result of monopoly
This is the pragmatism our generation needs without hurting the existing order but only building on it. Very salient points my friend. Bravo to you!RoM
MX is one political unit on the national level competing with dozens of political units who are all rivals and are in blocks, 4.5 system, as NGM we have zero tolerance for division on the national level, infact we want to not only move ahead as one political unit that is MX but further our interest through balancing Isirwadaag with Oodwadag alliances on the national level using our geographic reality as an advantage not a disadvantage. Post Roadmap era is a thorny fruit tree if you want to be cut by the thorn remain stagnant if you want to get the fruit evolve and create your own roadmap.
This comes natural to me like breathing and blinking, infact having to explain it is painfully redundant, but I understand others not feeling it, why because insular tendencies fueled by juffojufaysi and lacking in understanding of present and future reality of federalism can cause that.
hence why I seperate local and national representation, arguments, and generally politics. I always tell you this, You are the don of JL affairs, I don't say this because I promote difference, I say this because I make distinction between national level and local level. This remedy is not perfect, the two planes do clash and do interact, and sometimes we need them to while at times we don't.
bless your brain, no wonder Luuq Ganane is 3rd school on the national best achieving school, I know when I see potential.NGM & Gubbet,
I have thought about this some more. And for real progressive change. These are the points I see as regressive. This is in my opinion is the only way to save Sade and set a progressive example to the rest of the Somali people. I’ll start with our political Xeer which was imposed on us unilaterally and here are the results:
14 MPs
6 Diini
3 Hassan
1 Talxe
1 Wargadhac
1 Hawrarsame
2 Raadamir
3 Senate
2 Diini
1 Radamir
With half the reps going to 1 jiffo. Objectively without feelings or jiffo jufaysi but the BOTTTOM LINE. This doesn’t foster Sade unity but resentment, potential coups, treachery, etc. We are in extraordinary times and our midnimo is muqadas. A lot of clans not just Sade aren’t satisfied with Arta and it won’t lead to permanent peace. Clans with with little to no deegmos are unfairly compensated. Here's why I think the old system won't remain in state:
Somalia today in not the Somalia of pre 91
1. There's a demographics shift. 70% of the population is under 30
2. It's the age of the internet people are not blind to what's going on in the world and what's around them
3. More people than ever are becoming educated, we are not the same ignorant Jahiils with a small educated elite
4. The country is transitioning from Nomadism and Urbanizing.
Somalia is ripe for change but the change needs to be fair and managed. I’m not crazy but we need is fair constitution that doesn’t leave anybody out. I might be wrong or right. But I see the problem. Cosmetics isn’t working anymore, workhorse or show horse. REAL STRUCTURAL CHANGE is needed. I’ll finish with this one from the one of the architects of the Meji Restoration, Shimazu Nariakira who famously said this to changing winds of the modernizing of Japan:
”if we take the initiative, we can dominate; if we do not, we will be dominated"
Modernity requires rational thinking and design not just reactionary impulse. That impluse is only for war time only. In times of peace, subtlety is needed.
