To all my galmudugians on the spot @Mckenzie @Samaalic Era , I hope to say as Dr Osman, I am Osman Mahmoud first and foremost, Me and Keenadid 2 ilmo adeer baan kala abtirsana, we are like how close qaybdiid and xaaf are. So there is my introduction tribally speaking. Now let's talk about our shared history as Qardho and Galmudug. Remember when Keenadiid came to you guys, you were like how you are now, not united, no leadership, and he came and united you, gave you a leader(himself), and set a vision for your regions(which was hobyo sultanates). I have come back again to rekindle our shared history, tarikh baa naga dhaxayso, to deny it is to deny the past.
I come back because I heard 'Habar Gedir' is holding a conference Mid July in Hobyo. I would like to attend as a 'honourary federal' member. Remember when Harti had their conference in Garowe, we invited you to join, you refused however. You haven't sent a single invite to Puntland to join this conference, which shows the 'tribal sickness' is still in your hearts, and not Puntland.
Anyways forget that for now, we need a clear vision for your people, 'hadaf' waa inay lee yihin umadina, hal meel waa inay uu socodan, not 100 different ways. My vision is to unite HG under Somalinimo but Federalism needs to be their hadaf or vision. Ask them do you want to be controlled by mogadishu and your regions lags behind? Ask them about Carmo police academy in Puntland which is a National institution and supposed to be managed by the Centralists, they just abadoned it and defunded it and it's falling apart. Is it wise you hand your villages, towns, cities to these centralists if they couldn't even manage a simple police academy? You need to talk about what your aragti is towards Somalia. From a common will, we can build HG to be great again. Right now in reality your regions look like 1991-1998 era of Puntland when we had Abshir Muse controlling 'Bari' region and Abdillahi controlling Mudug. While Issa Mahmoud just waited it out to see who wins the battle between Abshir and Abdillahi.
This reminds me of how cadaado is now being neutral, garowe was like that also. While dhusomareeb reminds me of Abshir Muse and Bari because al-itihaad was full of Bari at the time, while Abdillahi Yusuf reminds me of Xaaf/Qaybdiid the traditionalist faction of Habar Gedir. We don't live like that in Puntland now, that was 1991-1998, we couldn't tolerate such conditions anymore and came together in a great shir-wayne which you WERE invited also but refused. Today Puntland from Bosaso to Galkacyo is one leader, we can travel freely, no more division, no more hamar meddling can be play games with us, no more jidgoyo between different militias of abdillahi/abshir muse. Infact we are pushing our government all the way outside Erigavo and Buhodle and Las anod. We want all those brotherly regions to be one government and one 'hadaf' and vision, which they are.
They have one vision and hadaf for Somalia which is unity but the type of unity they seek is federalism due to the civil war in 91. They prefer to stay in their own regions where they feel safe, which is understandable. Now back to your Galmudug. I suggest the following needs to be implemented immediately to ensure unity and development for the galmudug people.
1. Galkacyo needs to ceded to Puntland how Erigavo was ceded to Somaliland. You won't recieve any 'aid' from donors when they recognize those city under a different administration. You sat in South Galkacyo holding back all galgaduud development as a whole when donors will just give the funds to Puntland. Since you haven't created a new south mudug officially with a capital and towns and villages, now your losing all funds intended for mudug to omar mahmoud who develops his own side of mudug. This was horrendous planning by Galmudug when they formed in 2007 to sit in a city already decided internationally by donors and create an administration. Ya taladasi xumo uu sheegayo, waxay ku tusinaysa inaysan aragti fog ka jirin beesha manta.
2. Create a Galmudug with a capital in Dhusomareeb, You did this alhamdulilah. That is good step. But move there, don't sit in Galkacyo Baraxlay, meel aad marti ku tahay oo aduunka uu aqoonsan tahay puntland dani uguma jirto beesha habar gedir. If you want you can try the 'east sanaag' option or 'cayn' option of Puntland. Carve out a new region called south mudug lakin 'casimad' bay uu bahan tahay. Carve Hobyo as designated capital and have all villages and towns in south mudug report to Hobyo.
Now at least Galmudug in Dhusomareeb can go to donors and say all these people, villages, and towns under south mudug I would like my donor funds redirected to Galmudug in Dhusomareeb to inititate development. They will give it to you because hadi aysan mamul kale ka talin, they have no right to refuse galmudug to control it.
3. The other option is cede all mudug to Puntland markasi kala hisabtan dhaqaalaha lagu qaato magacina oo before north mudug keliya ka hirgalaysee. Since you lack political stability or administration, this is terrible. In Donor eyes anywhere oo aan mamul ka jirin they can't give them 'aid', who they do hand it too? noone responsible oo lala hisabtami karo. That is why hobyo-harardheere-baraxlay aysan uu kicin weligeed development wise. Because Galkacyo was given to Puntland and when they say hobyo-harardheere aysan mamul ka jirin oo galmudug ah oo dhusomareeb hos tagta, they realized they have to hand galkacyo also it's development.
I hope HG forget Qabiil nonsense and emotions, mudug people are to emotional and not rational and reasoning. Your people are not moving forward, should be a concern to you not emotions or tribes. Your always rife with instability because of no unity like how puntland was 1991-1998 when their was no unity or hadaf between us. Some of us were centralists, some were federalist, some islamist(alitihaad). Exactly the same as galmudug today 25 years later. It's like your behind 25 years politically to Puntland. I need to attend this conference as Honorary Ilmo Adeer of Keenadiid, only an osman mahmoud can bring back unity in habar gedir. Invite me please. I will attend, I want to leave a legacy for Somalia and their children.
