Wefti Culus oo Somaliland u dirtay Gobolka Sool iyo Khasaaraha ka dhashay Dagaalkii Laas-caanood

(Waridaad) - Wefti culus oo ka tirsan Dawladda Somaliland, oo isugu jira Wasiiro iyo Xildhibaano ka kala tirsan labada aqal ee Barlamaanka (Guurtida iyo Wakiillada), ayaa maanta ilaa berri la filayaa inuu u amba-baxo dhinaca Magaalada Laascaanood ee Gobolka Sool.

Weftigan oo ah kuwo dhalasho ahaan ka soo jeeda Gobolka Sool, ayaa waxa ka mid ah Wasiirrada, Horumarinta Reer Miyiga Fu’aad Aadan Cadde, Caddaaladda Axmed Xasan Cali (Casoowe), Boosaha iyo Isgaadhsiinta, Liibaan Ducaale Casayr, Kalluumaysiga Cali Qoorseef iyo Guddoomiye ku-xigeenka labaad ee Golaha Wakiillada Baashe Maxamuud Faarax, Xildhibaan Dhakool iyo Xildhibaano kale.

Ujeedada ay weftigani u tegayaan Laascaanood ayaa sida uu sheegay Guddoomiye-ku-xigeenka labaad ee Golaha Wakiillada Somaliland, Md. Baashe Maxamuud Faarax, waxa ka mid ah sidii ay Magaalada Laascaanood iyo Gobolka Sool-ba loogu samayn lahaa Maamul Somaliland ah iyo sidoo kale in dadka halkaa ku dhaqan lagu qanciyo in arrintu siyaasad tahay, balse aanay ahayn Qabiil. “Waxaanu doonaynaa in dadkii loo tago oo ay u tagaan Siyaasiyiinta ka soo jeedda Beelaha Sool wada degan, oo dadka meesha wada deganna la dhacsiiyo oo la fahamsiiyo inay meeshu ahayn Qabiil iyo Qabyaalad dhexdooda jirta, ee ay tahay siyaasad oo Siyaasad la kala raacsan yahay. Isla markaana loo tusaaleeyo inaan cidna la qabsan, Maamulka Laascaanood-na la dhiso.” ayuu yidhi Guddoomiye ku-xigeenka labaad ee Wakiillada Somaliland. Waxaanu intaa ku daray oo uu yidhi, “Maamul baa isbedelay ee reeruhu isma bedelin, waana in wixii fidmo ku abuuraya la joojiyo iyo in kii reer Sool ee Puntland la jiray uu dalkiisii yimaaddo, Dhulbahante-na ka wada hadlo siday dantooda uga tashan lahaayeen. Sidaa darteed dadka la soo dhaweeyo, maamul loo dhan yahay oo qolo waliba wixii ay xaq u lahayd ay qaadato in la dhiso ayaanu rabnaa, mana rabno sidii tii hore oo dhinac ka rarnayd.”

Bixitaanka weftigan ayaa waxa uu ka dambeeyay ka dib markii uu shalay dagaal dhex maray Ciidamada Somaliland iyo Puntland ka qarxay deegaannada Laascaanood ee Gobolka Sool. Taas oo ugu dambayntii ay Ciidamada Sool gacanta ku dhigeen Magaalada Laascaanood, oo sida ay wararku sheegayaan 37km dhinaca Galbeed u dhaafeen Magaalada. Isla markaana sida ay warar Madax bannaan oo ka imanaya jiiddaasi sheegeen ay Ciidamada Somaliland ka qabsadeen Puntland 35 Maxbuus iyo 12 gaadhi oo 9 ka mid ahi yihiin Tikniko. Maxaabiistaas oo sida lay sheegay hadda loo soo gudbiyay dhinaca Magaalada Burco. Inkasta oo aan si dhab ah loo ogayn khasaaraha dhimashada ee soo gaadhay Ciidamada Puntland, haddana waxay wararkaasi madaxa bannaani sheegayaan in Ciidamada Somaliland ay dagaalka kaga dhinteen 4 askari, 15-kalena kaga dhaawacmeen.

The New Somaliland Press & Publications Bill 2007

The Somaliland Government has recently sent to the House of Representatives a new Bill on press and publications. The provisions of this bill (based almost entirely on the Yemen Law No: 25 of 1990 on the Press & Publications) run contrary to international norms relating to freedom of expression and the independence of the press and are not in line with the Somaliland constitution.
The considerable powers given to the Minister of Information (and other ministers) include even deciding on appeals from anyone whose writings have been turned down for publication by a newspaper’s editor (Article 46). These ministerial powers over the press and publishers/printers/distributors etc, the compulsory registration of all press and publication activities, including the practice of the profession of journalism, and the extensive criminal sanctions which add to the existing array of criminal offences in the 1962 Somali Penal Code contrast sharply with the current Somaliland Press Law (2004), which contains no criminal sanctions and is based on codes of conduct. Unfortunately the Somaliland Government has repeatedly made clear its dissatisfaction with the current press Law and has used the Penal Code and extra-judicial powers to detain and imprison journalists. It is no surprise, therefore, that the Somaliland Government is not putting forward amendments of the current Press Law, but is now proposing its wholesale replacement by this new Bill which introduces considerable criminal sanctions, such as fines and imprisonment (Article 99) for the infringement of its numerous provisions, as well as prohibition of continued practice of journalism or publication or even circulation of printed materials; confiscation of property, including printing presses (Article 101) and seizure of printed materials (Article 102)..........Full Text

The Isaq Somali Diaspora And‎ Poll-Tax Agitation In Kenya, 1936-41‎

Poll-tax agitation has been a fairly common phenomenon in Africa. On most occasions it has involved little ‎more than vocalized protest. In a few instances, however, it has led to resistance that has been both serious ‎and violent; the earliest example of the latter is probably to be found in the widespread Fante uprisings that ‎occurred immediately after the introduction of the Gold Coast Poll Tax Ordinance of 1852; a later example is ‎the Natal uprising of 1906 which has been attributed in large measure to the introduction of poll tax at the ‎end of the previous year. Yet the agitation by the Isaq Somali in Kenya did not follow either of these two ‎patterns. In several respects it was a highly unusual movement: first, the Isaq were campaigning to pay higher ‎taxation; secondly, in order to secure their aims they attempted to mobilize the whole Isaq diaspora, so that ‎Somali in Uganda, Tanganyika, British Somaliland and Britain were all involved in this agitation, (see map )‎.....Read the rest

The "Letter-of-Death" by General "Morgan" January 23, 1987

(Waridaad) - Following is the famous "Letter-of-Death" as translated into English by Mohamoud Sheikh Ahmed Musa, former President of the Supreme Court, including his explanatory notes as footnotes:1
The report is addressed to the President of the SDR, the Minister of Defence, and the Minister of Interior. The latter, Major-General Ahmed Suleiman Abdalla, is also a son-in-law of the President, and Third Deputy Prime Minister. Since President Barre is also the Minister of Defence -- the previous holder of that portfolio, General Mohamed Ali Samatar, having been promoted Prime Minister on January 30, 1987 -- the report is seemingly confined to family members. This would explain its extreme frankness in specifying certain clans as targets for implemented and recommended punitive action.
The target is the Isaaq Clan Family. The term "clan family" was first coined by Professor I.M. Lewis, Professor Social Anthropology at the London School Economics, to describe the collective name for each of the several major divisions to which Somali clans traditionally divide themselves. The Isaaq clan family sub-divides into four main clans.
