Aryaa maa joogtido. Shirdoon and his famous partner did a lot of peacemaking and good work in Somalia. I am just discussing alternatives. This is not the era of Xoog but politics and i see no harm in admitting my clan could do with a political makeover. You skurried for a PM under Ina Yey, not because of his ties with Abgaal, which were non-existent as he was actually once pro Aidid, you pushed for a PM role to spite HG who at the time were on the verge of a back to back presidency. Ask Salaad Cali Jeelle. I am atleast defending a civilian leader not to spite anyone but to continue protecting our businesses and military interests behind the scenes.
Nice dig at Rooble and Liibaan. I don't know what crop of Abgaal leadership you represent but you have a long road to walk on if you think the Abgaal are better statesmen. Kaaraan looks like Malawi while Hodan looks like Boston. Guudlaawe's ministries are stuck in the Jiingad era while Qoorqoor is cutting ribbons every day. Calool ku deeqdaa la'dahaye, mugo midi calool ku ambataa soo jeesataa.
A HG who can actually dish it out? Waa wareey, impressive.
Let's be honest here. Aligning with MJ wasn't about spiting HG, it was simply pursuing my own interests, the same way you pursue yours. You bring up MJ every time you talk to an Abgaal, yet you're here eyeing a MX alliance to replace me. I don't call that betrayal. It's politics. You look after your side, I look after mine.
As for Hodan, hantida taalla Hodan ma habarta kaliyaa leh? That district belongs to all Somaliweyn, AB included. You claim that hanti but funny thing is that you were squatting on jiingads in government land in Hodan before you were removed, while I am at least still in my Kaaraan jiingad.
As for Qoorqoor, good on him, I like him, but these endless ribbon cuttings don't reflect the reality on the ground. Galmudug is no different from HS, despite HS suffering from being an unnatural institution - with XL/AB forced marriage, federal meddling and national politics shaping everything there. Anyway, qoorqoor is merely building some offices, it's not like he cured polio.
I also never said Abgaal produce better statesmen, but if you insist on comparing, don't look past the presidency and Banaadir governorship. Any Abgaal siyaasi is miles ahead of any of your bridesmaid politicians.
