Dr. Taniyow Siyaad Barreba rag baa sacabbada u timi jirey

(Waridaad) - Taariikhda siyaasadeed ee Somalidu meelo badan bay soo martay. Waxase weligeed jirtey laba weji oo hadhow taariikhu midba si u xusto. Hadaynu soo qaadano taariikhdii Siyaad Barre, waxaa jirey machine sacabada utumi jirey oo taageerada ay la daba taagnaayeen maamulkii Afweyne geyeysiisey ama ka yeedhsiiyey hadalo diinta lagaga boxo. Taageerayaashii Afweyne oo qaarkood ka soo jeedeen Somaliland waxay simeen ama is barbardhigeen Siyaad Barre iyo Suubaneheenii “Nabad Gelyo iyo Naxariisi Korkiisa ha ahaatee” Waxay yidhaahdeen, “Adiga, Afweynow Maxamed baalagu yidhahaa, Nebi Maxamedna SCW waxa la odhan jirey Maxamed.Xaaskaagu mageceedu waa Khadiijo Nabigana SCW xaaskiisa waxa la odhan jirey Khadiijo…And so on, and so forth.

Ragaa is barbardhigay Nebiga iyo Siyaad Barre iyaba rag bay ahaayeen taariikhda meelkasta ha ka galeene. Ragaasi isma weydiin in axadkan ay taageerayaan ummadu u aragto ama uu yahay Fircoon dhigiisa, magacyadan sida “accidental” ah isugu beegmayna aanay ahayn wax lagu kadsoomo. Raga qaar ayaa sidaa ku god galay!

Maanta oo aynu ka wada dheregsanahay hogaan xumanta iyo maamul xumada (lack of leadership) wadanka haysata, waxa ayaan darro ah in Dr. Tanioo mujaahid ahi umada daasado madhan u garaaco oo hadh iyo habeenba u alalaaso taagerada maamulka maanta jira. Waxu ku dhowyahay in diktoorku halkii rag Siyaad Barre gaadhsiiyey ay kala dhacdo. Diktoor hadaynu sacabada u garaacno dawladan tayada daran ee maamulka xun, maxaynu kaga duwanaanaynaa ragii sacabada u garaacayey Siyad Barre markii lagu xidhay adiga iyo ragii aad ku jirtey, ama UFO IWM. Sidee ayayse dareemayaan Dr. Gabose iyo Maxamed Xashi oo Kangroo court ku xukuntay cellkii ay ku xidhnaayeen? Miyaan principle jirin? Mise labadii doorasho ee midna Riyaale loo mustafeeyey midna sidii ay xukuumadu doonaysey ay uridey ayaad aduunba ku ilowdey?

Raggiina manta Riyaale sacabka u tumayaa, maxad ku taageeraysaan? Ma waxaad ku taageeraysaan xukun hagaagsan (Statesman, good administration) ama (leadership), ma horumarin? Miyaanay ceeb ahayn inaad sacabka u tuntaan ninkii sidii inuu marfish ka sheekaynayo, amase qaadlaha inoola hadlay kolkuu yimi caasimada Markaykanka. Ninkii ina lahaa Cabdulaahi yare iyo Cawil baa Gamibiya ku ambaday, ama Cawil baa Kenya lagu budheeyey isagoo ictiraf doonaya, ma ninkaasaa America ka dhaadhicin kara qadiyada Somaliland? Ama istaahila in sacabka loo tumo?

Waxa mudan in laga hadlo dawlad xumida ina haysata, iyo sidaynu dadkeena wax ugu qaban lahayn. Inaynu ka hadalo arrimaha muhiimka ah sida:In Guurtida, Maxkamada Sare, iyo 5 ka mid ah Gudida dorashooyinka ay u xidhan yihiin ama hoos yimaadaan Madaxweynaha. In aanay jirin liberty oo muwaadinka iyadoo aan maxkamad la saarin uu iska jiro jeelka mudo dheer. In Hay’adihii non-profit ahaa sida SHURONET ay dawladu lawareegtey. In Madaxtooyadu aanay la shaqayn Barlamanka, oo aan sharci qudha oo ay Barlamnku ansixiyaan aanu Madaxweynuhu fulin. In shirkadda Patrolku Madaxweynaha u xidhantahay. In xoolaha nool dawladu u xidhay nin ajinebi ah. In dekedeenii Geeska Africa ugu weynayd ay tahay Ghost town. In cashuur ururini aanay jirin. Inuu wadankii musuqmaasuq isaga baxay oo dawladu shaqayso tobanka ilaa salaada duhur. In ummadii ay cabudh santahayoo Saxaafadu cabudhsantahay. In Radiyow Hargeysa, ka keliya ee wadankaka jiraa aanu gaadhin Sheekh. In wasiirada qaar abadiya yihiin lakowsadey madaxbanaanideena. Wuxu yidhi Adan Tarabi, “cadceedaan dhamaanine ma ilayskii dunidaa”? Arrimahaa iyo inta aanan soo koobi karinee badan ayaa mudan in laga hadlo.

“Caano ninkii soo lisay la yaqaano, nin kastaaba ha keeno”.Libinta waxa iska leh shacabka Somaliland. Libinta waxa leh dumarkii caruurtooda iyago sida bisada ilkaha ku sita la galay xeryihii qaxootiga, iyaga mudan in sacabada loo tumo. Ragii sida kartida leh gaashaanka ugu daruuray oo u waajahay ugana soo hor jeestey Afweyne ayaa mudan in sacabkaloo tumo. Ragii nabad gelyada ka sheqeeyey ee Somaliland u hagoogteyayaa mudan in sacabka loo tumo. Nabad gelyada aynu ku faanaa shacabkeena ayay ka timi, shacabkeena ayaa mudan in sacabada loo tumo. Riyaale ma muto, mana geyo!

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.
