For decades, a deeply flawed clan-based system and political anxieties held the country back. Today, a newly sovereign Mogadishu is proving it has the institutional capability to democratize. open.substack.com/pub/saladarale…

@RAbdiAnalyst @mkainerugaba This is not the actual translation of what the president has said. In translation, the intent of the source is crucial for word choices of the target language.

#BREAKING Somali President tells Uganda "We can manage our security, thank you, and bye bye" Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud comments on Ugandan troop presence in Somalia a day after Ugandan army chief @mkainerugaba launched blistering attack on Turkey and threatened to pull out his troops from Somalia. HSM acknowledged Ugandan contributions to Somalia, thanked their sacrifice, fighting alongside Somali army. He concluded by saying SNA was now able to take over security duties of the country and it was time to bid Uganda farewell. "We should tell the Ugandans 'thank you', and ma'asalaam" Ma'asalaam is an Arabic/Islamic phrase that can loosely be translated as "bye bye".

@RAbdiAnalyst The "coordinated international coercive diplomacy", that you called for, simply means aggressive foreign interference on internal affairs of Somalia. It won't work.

#BREAKING The US government has reportedly cancelled entry visas for the Somali Speaker of parliament and other senior officials in the Hassan Sheikh government. Somali media is widely reporting that the A-2 (diplomatic) visa cancellation affects a number of senior officials close to the President and the Prime Minister. Adan Madoobe is the key enabler and enforcer of Somalia's alarming authoritarian drift under Hassan Sheikh. The deep crisis over the Somali provisional constitution, the dispute over future polls, the evisceration of the federal system and the creeping Barre-style centralised dictatorship - all can be laid at the door of this man. Well-done to the government of the United States. Time for coordinated international coercive diplomacy and less niceties to put back Somalia on a democratic, stable, healthier course. The move is not unprecedented. In 2022, the US government under the Biden administration, imposed a similar ban on key Farmaajo regime figures, accusing them of "undermining the democratic process."

@RAbdiAnalyst Anyone supporting RSF rebel groups against the Sudanese government does nothing but reveal where their allegiance lies in the regional power play.

Kenya, Ethiopia and Uganda seem broadly aligned on Sudan. The three East African states seem now inclined to view the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) as a regional threat because it is dominated by Islamists, and likely to bring back Islamist rule. All three states prefer a secular civilian-led government in Sudan. Maintaining a level of diplomatic and political support for the Rapid Support Forces is not necessarily support for 'secular Sudan' but seen as means of containing the SAF. Gen Hemedti's latest East Africa tour must be understand within this wider regional context.

@RAbdiAnalyst For reporting, the UN relies on experts who can be compromised at times, like when it comes to certain issues.

Three years ago, at the height of the Laas Anood fighting, I broke the story of Al-Shabaab's involvement in the conflict and specifically mentioned Abdi Madoobe as an AS commander with deep ties to AS Central in Jilib. The report was well-sourced and highly-credible. The backlash from some Somalia watchers/analysts, Somali Islamists and nationalists aligned with Mogadishu's destabilisation campaign in Somaliland was extraordinary. I received so much calumny and hate - the worst in my life. Guess what? The latest UN Panel of Experts report on Somalia for the UN Security Council now makes the same findings three years later and says exactly the same things I said in 2023. Just to be clear - I never spoke to the UN PoE and actually do not know them. VINDICATED !

@Tmac_SOL @elonmusk Obstacles of governance rebuilding due interference by Foreign States fighting for the geopolitics of the Red Sea, a waterway that handles between 12% & 15% of all global trade, worth over $1 trillion annually. They want to keep us in the status quo, we want peace and prosperity.

Somaliland declared independence from Somalia in 1991 and operates as a de facto independent state with its own government, currency, and elections. However, it lacks broad international recognition. As of late 2025, Israel became the first country to formally recognize it as sovereign, though Somalia and others strongly oppose this. It's a complex geopolitical issue.

@elonmusk @elonmusk, I see you are you obsessed with Somalis/Somalia these days? Not all Somalis are in America or want to go there. Besides, Somali Americans and South African Americans are both African immigrants in the USA.

@elonmusk Why does the richest man have difficulty speaking? Stammering that much might seem to be signs of aphasia. Speech therapy might help and he can definitely pay for it.

@elonmusk It is called governance, not the trial and error method of business risk taking that you do. It needs careful handling of affairs by technocratic people. Europeans did this for ages.
