For the first time, I have to admit that the Hawiye have finally understood how to sideline Majerteen from the Somali politics. HSM and the Hawiye elite swore between them to never bring Majerteen as president or even as PM. If their relationship with Marehan was to thwart the federalism agenda pushed by Puntland, they now have another Darod brethren in Ogaden who are willing to push centralism for them as good as Marehans did and even better. The five years we wasted building Jubaland appear to have failed big time. We have got 5 years of HSM term, followed by 5 years of farmajo term and another 5 years of HSM term, and all those years Puntland have been sidelined. By now, the Hawiye have understood the formula to defeat the only Darood that's capable of building strong federal country. Puntlanders will have to deal with centeralism until one of Marehan/Ogaden finally embraces federalism
