Madobe Is Not the Issue — Somalia’s Federal Election Is In 2019, Ahmed Sheikh Mohamed Islam was ELECTED, and then-opposition leader and former President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud risked his life to attend the inauguration in Kismaayo — the footage of his warm congratulations still exists and is attached. Equally, Hamza Abdi Barre — who now protests Madobe’s November 2024 re-election — was then the Chairman of Jubaland’s Independent Electoral Commission and personally certified that very process. The attached clip speaks for itself. Today, after Madobe followed the same state-led process used by all Federal Member States, those who once endorsed him now cry “improper election,” while President Hassan Sheikh has himself extended the mandates of leaders of Galmudug, Southwest state, and Hirshabelle — powers granted by neither federal nor state constitutions. These regions have operated under expired terms since as far back as 2022, yet it is Jubaland that is treated as the national emergency. The contradiction is staggering. Barely seven months remain of the federal mandate, with parliamentary elections due in February and March — the real clock is ticking. Somalia has no time for manufactured outrage or convenient scapegoats. Madobe’s election — held a year ago — is not the national debate; the urgent task is agreeing on a federal electoral model. Excellencies Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and Hamza Abdi Barre, let us return to the real conversation: your dwindling mandate and the national election ahead. Madobe cannot be the red herring. Somalia sees through it.

BREAKING Great day for Somaliland. As predicted by the most notorious predictor in the Horn, Dr. Rashid Abdi Rashid Abdi, India has RECOGNIZED Somaliland. (That is, as a province of Somalia — while also calling on everyone to respect Somalia’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. Sorry, doc.) Among Dr. Abdi’s long list of confident but unfulfilled predictions was his 2024 insistence that Ethiopia’s MoU with the secessionists — the famous “sea-for-recognition” swap — would pan out. It didn’t. We Somalis bashed that fantasy. And let’s not forget 2021 — when, briefly, he found himself on the right side of history (a rarity of late) — confidently declaring that Tigrayan forces would capture Addis Ababa. They didn’t. The sheer confidence and precision of the botched predictions once caused alarm; experience has since corrected that. For outsiders: on a scale of 1 to 10, the Good Doctor’s dislike of his own Somalis isn’t linear — it’s exponential. Think 10⁴. We don’t know why, but we absorb the blows.

At today’s UN Security Council meeting, Somalia firmly responded to Ethiopia’s attempt to impose itself on the new AU/UN support mission (AUSSOM). Somalia made it clear: “Thanks, no tanks. We have already secured the necessary 11,000 security personnel through bilateral agreements.” Ethiopia is finally out of Somalia. I am a proud Somali today.

#Ethiopia’s national TV interviewed Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed’s strategist Professor Brook Hailu who said Ethiopia should capture territories not only from #Somalia but also from #Eritrea and #Sudan. If this is what eating raw meat does to their brains, imagine if Somalis gave them full-blown ‘access to the sea’ and they added raw fish to the freakish mix. They’d go completely haywire.

“Somalia is an Arab state in the Arab League with rights, according to the Charter of the League, to collective defence against any threat it faces. We are not threatening anyone; we are stating this for clarity. We will not allow anyone to threaten Somalia .. don’t test Egypt … and try to threaten its brothers, especially if our brothers ask us for support.” Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi For your information Tarekegn Bululta Godana General Abdel Fattah Saeed Hussein Khalil El-Sisi repeated these words twice: محدش يجرب مصر محدش يجرب مصر

EXPLOSIVE The speaker states that Somaliland’s secessionist leaders “made very generous offer” to Israel that they would absorb up to 1.5 million Palestinians in Somaliland. Let that sink in. The speaker is Dr. Dan Diker — President of the Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs, longtime Director of its Counter-Political Warfare Project, and former Secretary-General of the World Jewish Congress. This is where the Somali proverb applies: “haddii nin waasho, walaalkiis baa u miyir qaba” — if a man goes mad, it becomes his brother’s duty to restrain him. Anyone who conspires in the expulsion of 1.5 million Palestinians is neither sane nor moral, and certainly not on the right side of history. History will not be kind to them. That is precisely why the rest of Somalis will not allow this to happen — just as they rejected the previous Somaliland leader’s attempt to trade land for a phantom “recognition.” Not a single Palestinian should be expelled from their homeland, and no Muslim or Somali should ever be complicit in such a crime. The forced displacement of a civilian population is a war crime and a crime against humanity. Northern Somalia (Somaliland) is not a vacant territory to be handed over to another people, as the speaker casually suggests — as if it were a walk in the park.

False-flag operative in Somaliland If one were to rely merely on the hysteria this young lady projects, one would assume Somaliland has already seceded from Somalia, as she ‘celebrates’ Netanyahu’s purported recognition of the northern Somali region. The problem is this: the lady is a foreigner — Ethiopian. We know that over the years hundreds of thousands of Ethiopian migrants have entered Somalia — some transiting toward the Red Sea. But as Ethiopia seeks to dismember Somalia, we are now seeing how Ethiopian Oromo actors who can pass as Somali operate inside Somalia. And I was not even able to understand 50% of what she is saying.

He is here to let us know that (a) Ethiopia will not recognize anyone; (b) Addis is ready to press the “reset button”; (c) from now on, it will be a normal neighbor; and (d) it will stop undermine us. We will tell him,that this is great stuff — and that we are happy to hear it. Of course, he knows that we know what he knows — and that we know he knows we know. In meetings like this, Areys Isse’s SAAR plays in the background.

🇸🇴 Somalia currently sits on the UN Security Council and will assume its presidency in January 2026. At a moment when Somalia is helping to safeguard international peace and security, Netanyahu seeks to undermine it by attempting to recognize a secessionist region — an act that openly violates the UN Charter and established international law. This will not succeed as Somalis will not allow dismembering of their country, and the world has already spoken with rare clarity and unity in rejecting the scheme as illegal, reckless, and unacceptable.

Reports today indicate that Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud is heading to Addis Ababa to meet Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed. This is a grave mistake. Ten months ago, the president was detained in Addis while attending the AU Summit. Throughout 2024, Ethiopia and Abiy schemed to dismember Somalia and annex its sea and land. They haven’t stopped. Less than a month ago, Abiy stalled the Ankara negotiations for seven hours, objecting to the inclusion of the phrase “Somalia’s unity will be respected” in the communiqué. Now, the Turkish president is reportedly planning visits to Ethiopia and Somalia to mediate and normalize relations, expected in Addis and Mogadishu within days or weeks. So why rush to Addis now—a country actively scheming against Somalia? Doesn’t the opinion of the Somali people matter? These are the same people who stood by you. Why throw them under the bus? Abiy and his deep state know how to manipulate and push their interests. They’re creating a wedge between you and your people, setting you up for betrayal once they have you exposed. What is wrong with you? Why can’t you read the room? Somalia has built strong allies like Egypt, Djibouti, and Eritrea, who stuck their necks out for Somalia and for you as a leader. They risked and strained their relationships with Ethiopia and Abiy’s enablers—those who wish ill for Somalia. Are you throwing that all away too? Why act as though nothing has happened? This is the same Ethiopia that sought to seize Somalia’s seas 500 years ago, still wants them now, and will likely want them 500 years from today. The irony is that you and your officials privately admit to Somalis that their worst fears about Abiy’s intentions are true—nothing has changed. Instead of engaging with Abiy, focus on making peace with other Somalis. Go to Puntland and assist in their fight against ISIS. Provide them with some of the resources the world has given to Somalia to tackle this terror group. Reconcile with Mogadishu politicians, including the two former presidents, past prime ministers, and opposition MPs. Make peace with Jubaland. That’s how Somalia can move forward, enabling elections and an agreed-upon constitution. You have real internal issues to address—issues that can be solved. Yet, you seem to be chasing a mirage: Ethiopia is a rational state with two clear objectives—to keep Somalia destabilized and to seize its sea. You have said this yourself over the past twelve months. Have you forgotten? Mr. President, Abiy is an intelligence officer, and he is entrapping you. He will not cajole or arm-twist regional leaders who oppose you, and even if he tries, it will come at great cost to Somalia and to you.

No amount of external machination can break up Somalia. Netanyahu cannot alter the destiny of forty million Somalis. No foreign leader can. That said, history will not be kind to those who busied themselves with distractions and allowed external machinations to reach a point where they even warranted attention. More importantly, history has never been kind to those who worked against the interests of the Somali people. Who today remembers those who collaborated with Ethiopia, Britain, or Italy when they tried to colonize us? No Somali remembers them. Not a single one. But every one of the forty million Somalis knows the first names of our heroes and patriots — names like Timacadde or Sayidka — men who stood firm against external schemes and internal sabotage for over a thousand years, and who defended our sovereignty, our unity, and our soil.

Dear President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and Prime Minister Hamza Abdi Barre: When the Ethiopian Prime Minister posts fictitious maps—like the one he shared yesterday—claiming that Ethiopia owns or once owned parts of Somalia and Djibouti (something that has never happened in the last 3,000 years), your response should be immediate and factual. You should post accurate historical maps from credible sources showing when and how Somalia liberated its territories that were once under Ethiopian control. The same applies whenever others attack the country you lead. Your foremost duty is to defend the dignity, sovereignty, and reputation of the Somali state.

A THREAD 1/2 The secessionist narrative that Somaliland was a state in 1960 is false — the historical record is clear. ———————————————— One of the most widely propagated yet concocted narratives promoted by secessionists in northern Somalia is the claim that two sovereign states— Somalia and Somaliland — were created in 1960, and that one of them was later “lost” or “given away.” This is false. Completely false. The historical record shows—clearly, repeatedly, and contemporaneously—that only one state was intended, negotiated, and established, and that state was the Somali Republic. From Hargeisa to Mogadishu, from London to New York (including the UN), the destination was stated consistently and explicitly: the creation of the Somali Republic on 1 July 1960. More importantly, the people and leaders of northern Somalia were active architects of the Somali Republic. Crucially, they neither intended nor worked toward the creation of a separate Somaliland state— despite the persistent misinformation now circulated by secessionist actors. So pervasive has this disinformation become that, only days ago, even unionist politicians in Mogadishu—some of whom hail from northern regions—repeated this claim as fact. What follows are nine hard proofs, drawn from primary documents and contemporaneous practice, demonstrating that no Somaliland state was created or “lost.” In 1960, everyone in Hargeisa was working toward the creation of one state: the Somali Republic. 1) Colonial labels were not states “British Somaliland,” “Italian Somaliland,” “French Somaliland,” the NFD, and the Ogaden were imperial administrative labels—not sovereign national projects. Across Somali territories in the late 1950s, the dominant political current was pan-Somali nationalism and decolonization, not fragmentation. 2) British Somaliland was a protectorate, not a state Under British law, Somaliland existed through protection treaties with Somali clans (1884–1886). Britain’s legal obligations were therefore to communities, not to a pre-existing sovereign “Somaliland state.” This mattered because protection could end only through a transition agreed by those communities—and that transition was explicitly tied to independence followed by union. 3) Northern Somalis worked toward the Somali Republic—amply documented In April 1960, the elected Legislative Council in Hargeisa—the highest political authority under British rule—passed a resolution calling explicitly for independence and unification with Somalia on 1 July 1960. This is recorded in Hansard. There is no ambiguity. 4) The April 1960 Joint Communiqué removes all doubt Between 16–22 April 1960, senior Somaliland legislators traveled to Mogadishu and issued a Joint Communiqué with their southern counterparts calling for the creation of a republic on 1 July 1960. It states: “The Territories of Somalia and the Somaliland Protectorate shall be united on July 1st, 1960… The new Somali Republic will be a unitary, democratic and parliamentary State.” It further ordered the merger of the two legislatures into one National Assembly, the election of one President, the formation of one government, the designation of Mogadishu as the capital, and the creation of one national army. This is not the language of two states; it is the blueprint of one republic. 5) London understood the objective was union, not separation In the UK Parliament, the Prime Minister and the Colonial Secretary stated plainly that independence would be granted to the protected tribes of northern Somalia so that union could lawfully take place, acting on the “declared wishes” of Somaliland’s elected leaders. Somaliland’s “independence” was a legal bridge—not the destination. 6) Contemporary media reported union On 6 May 1960, The New York Times reported that Britain would grant independence to Somaliland “so that it could unite with Somalia.” No contemporary account described this as the birth of a separate enduring state.

🇸🇴Down the Money Lane🇸🇴 In the 19th and early 20th centuries (as recently as the 1950s), Ethiopia, with the help of European colonizers, took control of a vast somali land known as Western #Somalia, or #Ogaden, now referred to as the Somali Region of #Ethiopia. In 1977-78, #Somalis from that region rose in revolt, and the government of Somalia came to their aid. Together, they liberated their land. At that time, Ethiopia was led by a Marxist-Leninist military regime. Somalis captured nearly all of their territory, and as the map shows, they were close to reaching Addis Ababa. The Warsaw Pact, led by the Soviet Union, then entered the war to support their client state and ally in the Horn of Africa. Against the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact forces, which included troops from Cuba and South Yemen, Somalia could not hold its ground and ultimately had to retreat. Yet, Somalis everywhere, including those who lived and still live under leaders like Abiy and other colonial figures, have never forgotten how their land was taken through treachery, and how, in reality, they remain colonized. Today, when Somalis hear external powers pushing Ethiopia’s agendas or offering “whataboutism” in response to Ethiopia’s annexation and dismemberment schemes, they are reminded of past treachery and injustices. And when Abiy now speaks of seizing Somalia’s sea, Somalis conclude that conceding Western Somalia only whetted the colonial appetite. The song “Galbeed waa la xoreeyey” (The West is Liberated) stands as one of the most powerful informal Somali anthems, declaring that the land is Somali land, and the struggle continues. It is sung by the revered band Waberi, led by the legendary Somali singer Hassan Adan Samatar. Lyrics: West, we have liberated, West, we have liberated, West, we have liberated. Warsaw has interfered, But the occupier will not sleep easy. The struggle continues, This is Somali land. The land! This is Somali land. We have won victory, We have won victory, We have won victory. Warsaw has interfered, But the occupier will not sleep easy. The struggle continues, This is Somali land. The land! This is Somali land. 1/2 (See below — next post — as event occur then in real time!)
