For those wanting to believe I fled Ethiopia, I appreciate the daily dose of amusements. Let me introduce myself. I am from a great house, a noble Somali “UGAAS” family. It’s not in my DNA to flee from anything. My courage is rooted in ancient Somali customs. #Somali#Ethiopia
The Shabaab-NISA nexus is busy at work to destabilise. Independent media, Pro-PM Roble personalities now targets.
It is telling that attack on PM staffer Moalimuu comes barely hours after new chairman elected to lead Somalia's polls and the PM nodded to change.
Attack on my friend @MOALIMUU today is despicable. May Allah help him with his injuries and may Allah give succor to the family and relatives of his driver.
This hazardous drought has affected most of our pastoralists people by severely

US Senate will vote on whether to designate Tigray a genocide. This is a huge moral victory for the survivors of the war, positive step in right direction.
It also gives succour to all those who have been clear from Day 1, this is a war to exterminate Tigrayans.
We will work with NGOs to confirm the reports of Mustaf Omar, the appointed President of the Somali region, forcefully recruiting underage #Ogaden children to fight in the Tigray conflict. We will push for US sanctions against President Omar If the reports are confirmed.
We have seen this sad event before: Children & young adults being forcefully conscripted to die for one man's vendetta. The #Oromo & #Ogaden people do not want to fight & die for @PMEthiopia. PM Abiy: Let them return to their mothers & families. We urge PM Abiy to seek peace.
Credible reports from Addis say OLA and TDF want orderly transition.
Meanwhile, intense talks with Abiy by key allies of Ethiopia may yield positive outcome likely to stave off prospect of violence in Addis.
Encouraging developments
Ethiopia's government has declared a nationwide state of emergency as rebel forces advance towards the capital.
@JamalMOsman has the latest from Addis Ababa.
