This is the empty barren land 61 souls perished fighting over yesterday and got 90 others wounded💔 May Allah guide us past this jahiliyyah. Kudos to Galmudug for dispatching additional police units to enforce a ceasefire between the Marehan & Surre clan militias but it

Let’s move the capital crew: “Somalia doesn’t revolve around Mogadishu. Move the capital to the interior. Coast = bad” Their solution: Move the capital to my clan’s villages that are near Ethiopia border or international waters As Long as there is 🇸🇴, Mog will stay its capital

While 1 in 4 children in Puntland have access to sufficient food, Puntland’s president is auctioning off truck loads of fresh aid in Bosaso markets, straight from the Bosaso port. With over 400,000 also in the brink of starvation in Puntland. Man-made famine?

President HSM 1 month ago warned against what’s happening in Garowe today. He called for both parties to settle their differences in peaceful manner but they didn’t listen. Now their militias are fighting each other in the center of Garowe instead. May 5th vs June 20👇

There’s never been a Somali politician that was humiliated as much as Abdullahi Yusuf. From getting sodomized in Ethiopian prisons to eating bakhti in the wilderness in his early years. To getting bitch slapped by Gabre in Mogadishu to dying in exile

Do you think they would’ve done this if the family were from a prominent clan? NO. This family were targeted because they’re from a marginalized clan. Subhanallah

Leelkase are done with #Somalia ’s rogue state of Puntland! After years of being marginalized & massacred by PL, they have called their quits & declared a new state. PL’s recent allocation of 2 MP, despite their significant population, was the nail in ⚰️

Yusuf's inclination to act as a puppet for foreign powers began in the 1980s, after his failed coup against Siad Barre. Shortly after Somalia's defeat in the 1977 war against Ethiopia, he founded a rebel group (SSDF) with support from Ethiopia, he would later regret this.

That picture is from 2011 when Al-shabab were using government uniforms. But if you want to go there, wasn’t this Dhabayaco PL soldiers getting dominated & taught how to wear/tie boots in 2016 by an AMISOM instructor? He was relieved when they exclaimed “haa” after 2 hours😭

Some traitorous “Somali” helped accomplish this in 1982. If it wasn’t for them, Puntland minister Gaylan wouldn’t have been told you’re inside Ethiopia when he was in fact well within Somalia. If 5km from Galdogob, Somalia is considered Ethiopia what is next?🤔

Days prior, the Marehan clan and some SSC Darod forces were flaunting the guns in the district, as shown in the video below. However, many of these guns have now been seized by the Cayr clan, as seen in the tweet above. Could this discourage further escalation from the Darod?

Worth mentioning that ISIS Somalia generated $2.5 million from extorting businesses in Bosaso, Puntland. This is more than the regional administration of Puntland generated from taxing Bosaso imported goods for Oct - Dec 2021 quarter

While serving as a puppet of the Ethiopian regime, Yusuf was forced by the DERG to invade and capture 2 Somali towns, #Galdogob & #Balanbale , using Ethiopian weapons and military force. In his book, he admits that he carried out these invasions resulting in numerous deaths.
