| 1410124550759649283 | @RAbdiAnalyst, a #Somali #Kenyan analyst had more guts than the @_AfricanUnion, @igadsecretariat & UN Security Council which was not even able to meet when it comes to opposing/ stopping Ethiopia & Eritrea’s war in #Tigray. Civil society has power & Rashid is an Exhibit A. https://t.co/t7OjxcgBKO | 112 |
| 1564954263536766978 | Paid a courtesy visit to H. E. @M_Farmaajo , former President of #Somalia. It’s known that I was critical of his administration & we revisited that chapter, discussed it & agreed we are brothers and we have a country we all wanted and want to fix. #SoomaaliHeshiisAh https://t.co/u035szawSc | 103 |
| 1446499159981367297 | On 12 October 2021 when the international Court of Justice rules that #Somalia owns its ocean, #Somalis will be thanking the 9th President of the Republic @HassanSMohamud who had the foresight to take the case to court & who assembled the team we built a watertight case. https://t.co/HiFqXjhmLW | 89 |
| 1624428779354324992 | Inter’nal community / United Nations should send a fact finding mission to Laas Aanood; 1) The mission should be free to travel anywhere in the city/environs; 2) the UN fact finding mission should also address the humanitarian situation; 3) They should document any war crimes; https://t.co/MfH1pBKo3R | 88 |
| 1623239817478778881 | This tells you that Somaliland hardliners ‘lost the plot’ in what is happening in Laas Caanood & Sool region in general. No, it ain’t all those groups; it’s the Dhulbahante clan who own the damn land & who don’t want to leave #Somalia or be part of a breakaway entity. https://t.co/RYSVViCmZ5 | 88 |
| 1623236451923111936 | A possible #warcrimes exhibit; ELECTED mayor of Laas Aanood & majority of city councillors accuse the Somaliland government of indiscriminate shelling & describe devastation of their city & shelling of health centres, mosques & civilian quarters. #R2P https://t.co/6tc1cOj1Mg | 87 |
| 1506926733727092740 | Farmajo control Gedo & Southwest. Citizens there are dying for hunger. Meanwhile millions are spent on vote-buying; He deployed troops to Baladweyne & his critics are being murdered there; Al Shabaab roam with impunity as Mogadishu bombing reveal. This man has ruined #Somalia https://t.co/IgG4yVy39z | 65 |
| 1628493695275225099 | Thank you Prez @HassanSMohamud & PM @HamzaAbdiBarre for standing up to the thuggish behaviour of @musebiihi. No man should get away with the shelling, murder and maiming of Somali civilians. Amb. @AbukarOsman1 history will canonize your exemplary embodiment of Danjire-nimo; https://t.co/w79dqL4oet | 65 |
| 1506989121532837895 | The overwhelming sadness & pain displayed by former Prez @HassanSMohamud at the funeral for murdered MP @HonAminaMohamed in Mogadishu captured how most Somalis feel today. Amina was a fierce critic of @M_Farmaajo & his allies; she advocated justice for the murdered #IkranTahlil https://t.co/OnTY2kosN7 | 64 |
| 1402943914672263169 | Mothers of missing sons are crying in #Mogadishu today. They said Somali gov led by @M_Farmaajo & @HassanAKhaire took them to Eritrea for training & were later sent to fight/die in #Ethiopia’s #Tigray region. They are demanding answers. Tell them the truth; what have you done? https://t.co/oRIT2poRNj | 64 |

| 1523400642810679296 | Farmaajo will release video tonight; his people called it a major speech; 1. Would he announce he is not running & flee the country as he knows he won’t win reelection; 2. Will he create more roadblocks against the presidential election. I think he will do #2 What do U think? https://t.co/XLe0oqiUEt | 150 |

| 1476163551198912519 | Farmaajo’s reign of lawlessness is over. He won’t be able to rig the election. He won’t be reelected. He squandered his 15 minutes of fame; There is nothing his irrational supporters can do about his spectacular & total failure. Game over as Trump & these wide-eyed folks. https://t.co/nBEhuyFlNm | 118 |
| 1482089676781535232 | For 4 years as a legal #Somalia president (+ one year illegal extension), Mr. Farmaajo has NOT held one single press conference where assembled journalists asked questions about his decisions. NOT A SINGLE press conference. If you are given power, #accountability Is a must. https://t.co/eo7iMBxMd9 | 105 |
| 1522680387562004480 | A THREAD : Why Somalia needs change from Farmaajo’s and Khaire’s ruinous reign; They were given power and trust and they showed — for five years ( Farmaajo) and three years (Khaire) — that they were not leaders but angry/showy small p politicians; Somalia needs change; 1/7 https://t.co/oWed4pco4Z | 96 |

| 1512914917988438021 | Is this true @ATMIS_Somalia? Are you locking out #Somalia’s newly elected MPs & @SomaliPM & his government who announced weeks ago that they will — on 14 October— held swearing in ceremony for the highest institution in the country! If that is the case then you are occupiers! https://t.co/G6UyOzGA6D | 87 |

| 1429770136815276033 | Council of Presidential Candidates are correct to reject the sham election roadmap/process released by state leaders & PM @MohamedHRoble The whole thing is self serving & could lead to conflict. Both President Farmaajo & Federal Election Management committee should reject it. https://t.co/r4fiVvT10O | 33 |

| 1442506606307016711 | #Somalia: A Chronology of Historical Documents 1827-2000 Consulting with this book. I find it handy & useful; recommending to young Somalis who want a quick reference for 150+ years of history, thanks @afyare_elmi for sending it; Kudos to Abdiwahid Osman Haji for compiling it https://t.co/i3oPi0GeYD | 27 |

| 1589309443967451136 | The Somali government will (إن شاء الله) liberate its citizenry from Al Shabaab’s terror, carnage, extortion & abuse. For Al Shabaab apologists & other shortsighted politicians who are hoping the government will fail to defeat AS, the most likely scenario will look like this: https://t.co/KuOm5sw4KG | 227 |
