The 11th Parliament is not just a swamp...it's a pestilential swamp

[Hussein Mohamed @HussienM12]

BREAKING: Chief of Somali custodial corps brigadier general Mahad Abdirahman Aden elected MP in Baidoa on Tuesday morning.

TOP Somali army officials joined the 11th parliament.

[Mohamed Abdi Ware @MAWareSO]

And so, if any more proof was needed, @TheVillaSomalia demonstrates to the whole world that neither the writ of @MohamedHRoble, who is in charge of the elections, nor that of @PresidentMadobe, President of JL is effective in Garbaharrey. How does one, I beg, hold elections there?

[Adam Aw Hirsi, PhD @AwHirsiSO]

A caretaker president "on a working visit" to a foreign country. The absurdity here is all too palpable.

US judiciary branch is grappling with the executive branch and no one could predict which branch will eventually choke the other to submission.
What can be predicted however is that Washington's model of governance is no longer suitable for the "separation of power" concept.

Uncle sam is issuing visa sanctions - the only language Somali leaders of current era understand. What a shameful legacy @M_Farmaajo and co.
From SYL & Aden Abdulle to the current situation. 🤷🏽‍♀️

@NimoSabah @JustAwHirsi @AnalystSomalia There is always a landlord. Always.
There is never a former tenant. Never
A leaseholder must pay rent or get evicted. Simples.

[Rashid Abdi @RAbdiAnalyst]

The illegal and covert deployment of young Somali recruits to Tigray to conduct massacres of civilians in the early stages of the war in Axum, Adigrat, other towns will be remembered in history as shameful episode.

Eritrean cleaners have not removed all evidence. Truth emerging.

The photos clearly summarises the legacy of @M_Farmaajo since 2017.Only hanging around Villa Somalia and taking photos,nothing else.Nothing tangible to show for the four years plus in power.#Somalia #mogadishu

Two important lessons from #QalbiDhagax’s painful ordeal from two great friends, @awilbile & @JustAwHirsi. But for those who are ready to learn!

Laba darsi oo muhiim ah oo ka yimid laba saaxiib oo igu wayn. Waase intii ay dhaguhu u furan yihiin. #Somalia #QalbiDhagax

Conditions of legal extradition:
-Relevant crime is serious.
 -A prima facie case against the individual sought.
-Event in question qualifies as a crime in both countries.
-Extradited person can expect a fair trial in recipient country.
-Proportianate penalty
He never get that

[Adam Aw Hirsi, PhD @AwHirsiSO]

Quite simply, even if Qalbidhagah were an Ethiopian named Yemane or Hagos, handing him over to Ethiopia would've been both illegal and unconstitutional.

We. never. had. an. extradition. treaty. with. Ethiopia.

[Mohamed Abdi Ware @MAWareSO]

We can longer ignore mounting evidence of Somali troops’ involvement in the Ethiopian conflict. The government has a legal and moral duty to level with the Somali people and come clean on this issue. Enough!

This is a tweet all #Somalia's stake holders must frame.
I'll humbly add securitizing everything about #Somali politics is rarely a domestic problem.
IC has approached, appeased, prioritized & validated actors, domestic & foreign, simply because they influenced security in #Som

[Ambassador Khadra Dualeh @KhadraDuale]

Security, security, security, this is the number one issue facing Somalia. Who controls it? Funds it? Sabotages it? Who are the invincible hands undermining security? Who benefits by creating insecurity? Everthing else is Smoke & Mirrors. Major distraction including the election

[Ambassador Khadra Dualeh @KhadraDuale]

Our politics is mired in emotionalism & double standards. The majority of our politicans & Gov't officials are dual citizens of Western nations. HandsofSomalia is disingenuous when we're dependent on donors to fund critical Gov't operations. Somali needs to be self sufficient!

[awil @awilbile]
