Only 15 kilometers outside the Qardho, the third largest town in the Somalia Federal State of Puntland, Qardho, the largest number of soldiers laid down their Puntland insignia, saying they have decided to move over to the Somaliland side.

The soldiers, belonging to the largely ill-paid, loosely governed federal state ‘army’ of Puntland revealed they had not been paid even the pittance that goes for monthly salaries in the last 4 months or so.

Speaking of the circumstances that led them to take this critical decision, Major Kamal Abdul Aziz ‘Afgudud’, commander, told the media that “they were neither properly looked after as they should or been paid their salaries making their situation untenable’.

Major Afgudud stated that their patience has thinned out, and that, from then on, they were to be counted as Somaliland army officers.

“If these areas were mapped in as Puntland locations, Dhahamo and Misir where we are stationed should from now on be chalked in as part of the Republic of Somaliland,” he said.

Dhahamo – or Dhahan – straddles the Somaliland-Somalia border at a strategic point a stone’s throw from Dhahar of Somaliland, as it is to Qardho, Puntland.

Major Kamal further stated that elders and local residents of the area were of the same opinion, fulling supporting their move.

The army unit goes over the Somaliland side fully armed supported by a number of battlewagons, locally known as ‘technico’, and an ambulance.

What was unexpected and totally surprising in the event was Major Kamal revealing that most – if not all – of the soldiers hailed from a branch of a clan that lives in and around the ancient harbor town of Heis (Mundus in the Periplus of the Erythraean Sea) – making the situation that much more profoundly interesting to both Somaliland and Puntland.

Barely a week ago, 50 armed fighters, in a similar move, abandoned Puntland front lines to cross over to the Somaliland side.

Heis? Isn’t that in West Sanaag, who lives there...Isaaqs? Also why would they be stationed in Misir isn’t that Sool/Dhulo land? This seems like bad fake news.

The last one was fake news and the soldiers had to make a video debunking it.

When you join any army in the world you could be stationed whether they have a base depending on which unit you join...
 
A major figure, a colonel who fought with the snm defected and to cover up the embarrassment they do these mock defections for morale. Civil war pending

Misir could be a a small tuulo that's not on the map. When I was driving through Sool / Sanaag these little villages on the road with a dozen houses and 1 shop was given a name that I haven't heard of before and not on Gmaps
