The debates between Abdullahi Yusuf and his entourage and Caydiid and his side in Xamar 1994. The Darods present (Ogaden and Mx were absent) wanted federalism based on 18 regions or new federal states and were not willing to return to central rule. Irir led by Caydiid (HG) and Abdirahman Tuur (Iiddoor) wanted a North South central model with Hawiye getting President and Iiddoor getting PM. Caydiid justified this by saying Irir won the civil war and they were afraid of revenge if Darod were to get power. The Iiddoor were using the secession card as a bargaining chip to break the Darod-Hawiye duopoly and Caydiid was welcoming of them to sideline Darod
