🚨🏞️ Puntland government must immediately re-establish the Ras Hafun-Ras Guba national parks to protect the wildlife. 🦌

@Alidafarr You can not reason with these people. It has to be force. All of this is a matter of willpower, really.

@puntlandupdate he should have forced them to leave puntland or to accept disarmament. They’re his cousins and it never happened in puntland that a president in office to have beef with his sub-clan and his traditional leader. For aarnjaan, if they ever wins presidency, who will work with them?

Every single thing that is happening in Puntland, from PSF, to Jimcaale to the militias in Gaalkacyo can be traced back to this one decision: not destroying ilmo Diyaano. That's the moment everyone knew Deni's lack of fortitude.

@AbdiazizSaid10 He did not create this problem, he inherited it but did not solve it.

@puntlandupdate Or generally Deni being corrupt and poor at politics that don't pay army salaries and have no interest in building professional army.

I miss the old days of AllPuntland, Puntlandi and other news blogs. Now you get your news from a retarded FOB on Facebook who will blatantly lie and spaz out.

@RetroCoast The last time you made this tweet, it was being boosted by Elon Musk, the White House and the whole right wing. This time you don't have that. Find a better paying job, loser.

Somalia has 1,000 miles of beautiful coastline 300 days of sunshine a year, arable land And a strategic location. What have Somalians done with this?

Liban: The Unspoken Drivers of Puntland’s Militia Realignments Liban argues that recent security dynamics in Puntland cannot be understood without recognizing the role of clan‑mobilized forces and the absence of a sustainable demobilization or absorption framework. During the Las Anod conflict, Puntland did not deploy its formal security institutions; instead, clan‑based fighters mobilized to support SSC‑Khaatumo against Somaliland. More: aljazeera.com Similarly, in the Cal Miskaat campaign against ISIS, Puntland relied on a combination of official forces and locally mobilized clan units, particularly in Bari. These clan forces remain outside formal command structures, and neither Puntland nor the Leelkase community—recently mobilized in clashes with Habar Gidir/Sacad—possess the institutional capacity to absorb, demobilize, or reintegrate these fighters. Liban notes that such forces, lacking stable salaries or long‑term guarantees, naturally seek external patrons. Historically, the UAE served as the primary paymaster for the PMPF and other Puntland‑aligned units. However, evidence suggests that UAE financial support has declined, creating salary gaps and weakening Puntland’s ability to retain loyalty. Background: washingtoninstitute.org In this vacuum, the Federal Government of Somalia offers an alternative: regular salaries, standardized ranks, predictable training, and integration into a national command structure. For many clan‑based fighters, federal integration is not ideological—it is economic rationality and institutional survival. Liban further argues that clan elites also join the federal army to strengthen their bargaining position in local political negotiations. Integration into federal structures provides leverage in securing parliamentary seats, development funds, and administrative influence. Context: hiiraan.com He concludes that unless Puntland develops the fiscal and institutional capacity to absorb or demobilize these mobilized fighters, the trend of clans seeking federal patronage will continue. The issue is not merely security—it is a structural challenge of state capacity, resource distribution, and political competition within Somalia’s evolving federal order.

New NECSOM solar farm in Garowe, Puntland. 🌞

@Itswambuaa Stop pocket watching and improve your life, loser.

"Somalis control Kenyan economy," meanwhile, Kenya's GDP is 10 times bigger than Somalia's

Bareeda Tuna Factory has started production in Puntland.

@sonofsomali This happened under Hawiye watch, just as the destruction of Somalia did. So you can cope and deflect all you want.

In 1884, Isaaq leaders went to Aden to negotiate the creation of British Somaliland. By 1888, the Majeerteen brought the Italians to their coast. Fast forward to 2026, Puntland is still trying to copy Somaliland, while the southerners remain the last to catch on.

@InsideSomalia2 That' s AI, you stupid motherfuckers.

#Somali Navy command center in #Mogadishu is under construction. Regaining the security of the longest Coastline Nation in Africa is also a milestone . #SomaliNavy #TürkiyeNavy.

@Alidafarr @imanmali You are assuming he negotiates on behalf of Puntland instead of himself. He will not receive military support, he will just receive money. Deni is not a long term visionary and he is emotionally unstable.

This is the same tired talking point we have heard repeatedly from a leadership class that appears increasingly disconnected from reality. Instead of confronting the facts on the ground, they continue to move the goalposts and recycle the same grievances year after year. The continuation of this political strategy is not only misguided, it is dangerous. It risks creating deeper divisions within #Puntland and pushing the state toward unnecessary instability. There is a fundamental contradiction at the heart of this approach: you cannot simultaneously insist that Puntland is part of Somalia 🇸🇴 while constantly portraying Somalia as an existential enemy determined to destroy Puntland. At some point, that contradiction must be addressed honestly. I listened carefully to the entire parliamentary opening speech, and the message was virtually identical to what we have heard for the last three years. The same accusations. The same complaints. The same warnings. The same excuses. When the rhetoric never changes but the problems remain unresolved, it becomes reasonable to ask whether the problem lies elsewhere. Perhaps the obstacle is not Mogadishu. Perhaps the obstacle is the leadership itself within #Garowe. There is an old saying that doing the same thing repeatedly while expecting a different outcome is the definition of insanity. Puntland’s leadership appears determined to test that theory to its limits. The longer Puntland continues down this path of political self-sabotage, the harder it will be to restore its former position as a stable, respected, and influential government. Resources that should be directed toward economic development, security, infrastructure, and public services are increasingly perceived as being consumed by political ambitions that offer little tangible benefit to ordinary citizens. A government cannot indefinitely neglect the needs of its people while pursuing political battles that produce no meaningful results. When opportunities disappear, when salaries are delayed, and when institutions weaken, frustration grows. History has shown repeatedly that prolonged mismanagement creates fertile ground for instability, social unrest, and political fragmentation. I have said it before, and I will say it again: the future of Puntland should not be taken for granted. No political entity is immune from decline if its leadership refuses to adapt, acknowledge mistakes, and change course. If the current trajectory continues unchecked, Puntland risks undermining the very foundations that allowed it to survive and prosper for nearly three decades. The greatest threat to Puntland may not come from external actors at all. It may come from leaders who are unable or unwilling to recognize the consequences of their own decisions.

Hajj season is a year from now. With Somaliland's alignment to Israel, and inevitable alienation from the Arab world, it is an opportunity for Puntland to seize the livestock export market in HoA, particularly the Saudi market. A boon for Bosaso (port) and Galkacyo (market town).
