He's Abgaal.
Shirdoon is quite popular with HG. He married into them and has shared business interests in Kenya. If a Darod figure took power he would be the most likely figure to get HG votes. Other Hawiye are indifferent to him, infact some are against Shirdoon purely for his HG connections. Some folks were tired of HSM having HG back office support and seek to dismantle all the backdoor HG policy making. I'm also one of them.
I want a strong anti HG figure to come into Power so it gives us time to regroup and return to politics with a clean slate. This will likely never happen though. Any leader who attacks HG results in HG rallying Hawiye support, just to end up with the Abgaal taking over the mantle. Happened with Siad Barre, happened with AY and also Farmaajo. Even Laftagareen tried to send militia to attack the HG in Baraawe and that has now turned into a long term low level war between Hawiye subclans like Abgaal, HG, Gaaljecel etc and the Mirifle militia from Bay and Bakool. Instinctively the other Hawiye defend the HG because without the HG they are next. The Muqdisho basin where empires rise and fall is ofcourse salivated over by everyone with an ambition to rule. All Hawiye know this and it's why clans like HG and Xawaadle lose out. We defend Muqdisho interests while being the furthest Hawiye clans away from the capital.
How the mighty have fallen?
I genuinely felt bad reading that post. Never in my life did I expect seeing habarta calaacaling this bad. Worse, you are are dickriding shirdoon because he's married into you? Maxaa idin laga siiyaa seediyaashiina? "I want a strong anti HG figure to come into Power so it gives us time to regroup and return to politics" kulahaa lol.
Waryaa, have some shame - you are the last standing HG in sspot, you can't be doing niiko for the weakest daarood. He's probably gonna break abdirahman abdishakur's arms again. Lol. Imagine a Darod beating the shit out your mps in Xamar. Fajac iyo amakaag.
But, then again, the best you could muster is rooble baahane and liibaan shuluq - this is why you are guys lost. I am sure if you change your pfp to Caydiid your luck will improve.
