Dear
Mohamed:
I share
some of your concerns about the Arte established government.
However, your concern about Kisimayo and its civilians is
little bit disingenuous.
This
is because many of your clan members are sending money to
finance Gen. Morgan to wage a similar war to maimed and
kill civilians in Kisimayo. May, I remind you that, during
Gen. Morgan's eight year rule of Kisimayo, created havoc
closing the seaport which was the only resource of export
and import for the Region, just to give business to Bossasso
seaport.
He has
been the major source of instability in that region, he
doesn't have the capacity to deal with and has shown no
interest. Not to mention it was your late father, then Prime
Minister of Somalia who instituted the so-called 'Progetto
Russo' to settle and establish strong Majeerteen presence
in Kisimayo, which turned the tables in their favor.
As a
result the Governor, District Commissioner, the Police Chief
and the rest of the authority in the Region were your own
sub-clan (Osman Mohamud). Hope you are not advocating the
return of status quo, otherwise you will be guilty of the
same crimes that you are accusing of Mr. Abdiqasim. Thus,
you need to wake up to the human tragedy and disaster in
Somalia.
Kismayo
is very far from Bari, Mudug, Sool and Sanaag and non of
the combatants belong the Region. As a potential Candidate
for the Presidency of Puntland, I urge you to embrace and
adhere to the principles of representative 'government'
in the whole Upper Jubba Region, which is inclusive of all
geographic areas and all segments of the society in the
region.
Scheming
clans with ruthless militias who will stop nothing to get
what they want became the norm in Somalia, in order to obtain
power and supremacy over others by invading other territories.
Sad
to say because of the loose of human life, I support the
position of Mr. Abdiqasim to defend the sovereignty of the
country from invading forces allied with foreign power such
as Ethiopia, who has been busy to destabilize Somalia for
the past ten years.
It
is my firm believe that, the situation in Somalia will continue
to deteriorate unless all Somali people could sit together,
discuss the formation of new constitution without marginalizing
any group, based on the Rule of Law, multiparty democracy,
free elections and form of regional and clan autonomy, where
original inhabitants of each region are left to manage their
own affairs.
