This is sad as shyt. Had many mutual friends with him, and he was someone from the diaspora who actually walked the walk and came home to contribute to private enterprise and build up the country, rather than eat at the public trough.

Demonic country that eats all its best souls. :francis: AUN.





AUN :francis:

Probably Shabaab.

Chaos today in the Somali region and Jiijiiga in particular. Iley has managed to use the Oromo-Somali conflict as a trump card to hold on to survival. Told people that the Oromos are about to take over the region, and was about trigger the article of the constitution that allows for secession. Federal troops stormed the town, meanwhile looting and riots on the street of Oromo businesses and properties. Low key a civil war may be around the corner.

This guy needs to be removed from his position. He instigated the conflict between Somalis and oromos and is now using this same conflict to cling on to his seat.

Mogadishu (HOL) - The Ethiopian National Defense Force (ENDF) have moved into Jijiga, the capital of the Somali Regional State (SRS) in Ethiopia, and have strategically positioned themselves in key installations after a break down of relations between the Federal Government of Ethiopia and the Somali regional President Abdi Mohamoud Omar (Abdi Iley)‘the one-eyed’. Supporters of Omar, who has led the Somali region since 2005, have reportedly taken to the streets to protest the Federal Ethiopian troops presence while regional officials who spoke via Facebook denounced the move by the military as a “coup”.

Ethiopian troops are said to be in control of the Presidential Palace, House of Parliament, Jigjiga Convention Hall, ministries offices and the TV station.

The move comes against the backdrop of a two-day meeting in Dire Dawa that begun on Thursday by Somali-Ethiopian leaders who oppose the rule of regional President Abdi Mohamoud Omar. After the situation unfolded in Jigjiga, the leaders urged residents to remain calm and to not attack other ethnic groups. The opposition group has announced that they have left Dire Dawa and are en route to Jigjiga.

So who is at fault? Somalia or Ethiopia?
