Happy 1st of July Somali Independence Day! 🇸🇴❤️🇸🇴

[Ali H. Warsame @alihwarsame]

When did a person's birthplace become an issue in such cases? Don't you yet understand that criminals remain criminals regardless of where they come from. This is racism at its worst.

How many good citizens of the same origin have voted for you? @RupaHuq, you should be ashamed of yourself.

In early 2023, I started, based on my long-term research as social anthropologist across northern Somalia (documented in many writings available e.g. here: https://t.co/Tfnp2ZIsso ), to comment on the war over Lasanod. I explained the background of the resistance of those living in the Sool, Sanaag and Cayn (SSC) regions east of Burco against the Somaliland government, which had unleashed a brutal military attack on Lasanod, full of civilians, on 6 February 2023.
In the course of the exchanges online, especially on X, those defending Somaliland’s aggression became increasingly vicious, attacking me personally.
On 28 March 2023, @NimkoAli , CEO of @FiveFoundation and known women's rights activist, topped the attacks on me by engaging in libellous statements of the most horrendous kind. She supported the agression of the Somaliland government. She tried to shut me up as a critique of the violent politics she supported, which cost the lives of many in Lasanod and surroundings.
For a women’s rights defender, it was astonishing that she hurled around accusations like “paedophile” without proof. After a time of shock, pain and contemplation, I decided to hold her accountable. My lawyers filed a case against her in early 2024. It now, in mid-2026, concluded with her unreserved apology. She also is paying substantial compensation to me as part of the agreement we entered into.
Hopefully, Nimko learned her lesson and next time thinks twice before she, as a public figure (holding an OBE... 😉 ) with some responsibility for her words and reputation (from which she lives, as women’s rights campaigner), utters baseless accusations against someone. @SpotonSomalia @SheiknorQassim @M_H_Ingiriis @PeteChonka @Jethro_Norman @lhammondsoas @RVInews @UniLeipzig @declassifiedUK @standardnews @PenguinBooks @PenguinUKBooks @carrielbjohnson @BorisJohnson @SpeechUnion @guardian @AJEnglish @somalilandmfa @SomalisVoices @SomalilandChro1 @somalilandusa @GavinWilliamson @SuleimanHashi @GaraadMukhtaar @afyare_elmi @EIshmael_ @RAbdiAnalyst @agaraad @Fundji3 @JewishChron @CUSocOfWomen @SexMattersOrg

I made this recommendation long time ago. We should go as far as banning/criminalizing clan flags/wristbands in Kenya. The only thing allowed is Somalia flag, not that clan nonsense!

[Awes A.H Mumin @HaimeOracle]

Markus, seems like the lawsuits really worked haha

[Markus Virgil Hoehne @HoehneVirgil]

@NimkoAli Good that you finally apoplogise.

[Mohammed Hersi : Mr Optimist @mohammedhersi]

Your excellency @WilliamsRuto quietly work on your legacy. Kenyatta Snr gave us KICC. Moi gave us Kasarani & Nyayo stadiums. Kibaki delivered on Thika Superhighway and Isiolo Moyale highway.

Uhuru delivered on Southern & Eastern bypass including Nbi Expressway. Dongo Kundu and Makupa bridge

You are delivering Bomas ICC, Talanta Raila Omollo Odinga Stadium, Mombasa Kilifi highway , Mombasa Mariakani dual carriageway and of course Isiolo Madogashe Wajir Elwak Rhamu Mandera highway in neglected Northern Kenya +++ in under 4 years

Let me be selfish...... Break ground on Mombasa gateway bridge and without forgetting JKIA. EXECUTION reloaded is what we need.

Stay FOCUSED like an eagle .

[🇸🇦Abdulsalam Saleh @abdulslam2017]

🚨 Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan makes a profound statement: “I’ll just say this… We—the Turks, Arabs, Kurds, and Persians—have foiled a conspiracy. The future will reveal just how bloody and malicious it was.”

This statement confirms that what happened was not merely a war, but a comprehensive conflict aimed at pitting the peoples of the region against one another. But what happened was exactly the opposite. The four countries stood as one, 🇵🇰🇸🇦🇹🇷🇪🇬 united in their stance, and the conspiracy was thwarted in its infancy. 🦅

[signüll @signulll]

zohran mamdani will prolly be the defacto face of the democratic party very very soon.

i suspect he will have a prime time spot at the next convention or maybe even a vice presidential nomination.

he is a formidable candidate for the republicans or even moderate democrats to deal with because no one on the republican or democratic bench has as much charisma & strategic thinking + execution as he does.

[Human Rights Foundation (HRF) @HRF]

HRF condemns Ethiopia’s sham June 1 general elections, which crowned dictator Abiy Ahmed and his Prosperity Party with a landslide victory following an electoral process void of genuine democratic competition and discredited by opposition boycotts, political repression, the exclusion of significant parts of the electorate, and a campaigning overwhelmingly skewed in favor of the incumbent.

Money before stopping genocide: The British government received intelligence that the United Arab Emirates and Ethiopia were supporting a genocidal militia in Sudan’s civil war in 2024 but did not go public with the news for fear of upsetting the UAE. https://t.co/Rk7ukTjdKB

Painfully sad.

When a govt describes its own country as fragmented into clan territories, it is no longer just political commentary. It is an admission that the state itself is struggling to remain whole.

That should trouble every serious Somali. #SomaliaElections2026

[SMS Somali TV @SMSSomaliTV1]

"#Somalia is a fragmented place where every #clan has carved out its own territory; a place where enemies operate in between #communities and people must travel by plane to move around; a place from which everyone is trying to escape because of its damaged reputation and #passport.

Such a place is not one where #responsible leaders should be #content to sit by."

— Hamza Abdi Barre

Running a property management company with an almost KSh 3M deficit, while signing a commitment at #OOC11 to reactivate an organization that has been silent for five years.

At this point, it is either we are in serious trouble, or we are about to pull off something great.

Ambassador Americo has that rare “cool learned uncle” energy.... full of life, full of wisdom, never stressing you about marriage, just vibes, grace and good company. Mogadishu looks good on him.
