Well you want me to give credence to your assertion that just because 3 States don’t view FGS as enemies from day 1, that it is ‘election rigging’. Because the other states are not Puntland who are hoping for a Hawiye President so they could be PM, that is not election rigging. As for the Gedo issue, we will have to agree to disagree. In my mind, as they say you dance with the one who brung ya’. Did Ahmed Madoobe come or not come to Kismaayo on Kenyan tanks 2013 when Kenya took Kismaayo from AS?
If you say no, then noted I will not even waste my time with another discussion. As Kenya got more, and more antagonist towards Somalia due to the maritime issues, Qaad ban, etc. everyone under their influence, including Madoobe were going to follow suit. Letting Madoobe run Jubbaland elections means letting Kenya run the entire Jubbaland elections, and that can’t happen. In a ideal role he I don’t think he should have any role period let alone Gedo.
Like I said before though this is a to be continued, Agee to disagree scenario. Truth be told if I was Ogadeen I probably would have been a Madoobe fan, viewed Kenya as a friendly country. I can’t blame you, but understand I, and a lot of Somalis are not Ogadeen, and won’t have those same affinities.
