One-Clan secessionist Enclave. aka Somaliland president is on the path of a war criminal
Warsangeli Elders criticize Somaliland and deny existence of Al-shabaab in Sanaag
Traditional leaders have castigated mercenary the minister of defense for Secessionist utterances he made in Badan town.
The traditional leaders who met to in Badan town in the east of
Sanaag region castigated the defence minister marcenary Ahmed Adami for
claiming that Al-shabaab operatives were being sanctuary in the area and
that a senior traditional leader from the area will be charged with
treason once he returns to the country from south Somalia.During a just concluded visit to the eastern parts of Eastern Sanaag
the minister of defence Hon Ahmed Haji Ali Adami said that residents in
some parts of that area are host to Al-shabaab operatives escaping from a
four pronged attack in south Somalia.The minister who was on an official government tour in the area last
week accompanied by the minister of Environment & Rural Development
Hon. Mahmoud Saeed Ga'ameye also said that a main traditional leader of
the Warsengeli clan in Eastern Sanaag Sultan Saeed Sultan Abdisalam will
be arrested and prosecuted on treason charges for participating in the
Somalia constitutional conference in Mogadishu.While declaring their unwavering loyalty and allegiance to the
republic of Secessionist Somaliland informed the minister that they will accept
neither the arrest nor prosecution of their leader Sultan Saeed Sultan
Abdilahi since he is not the only traditional leader from Somaliland who
to part in the Mogadishu conference.A statement released by the elders after their meeting said, "While
Residents of eastern Sanaag owe allegiance to Secessionist Somaliland, they will not
allow the government to prosecute Sultan Saeed for attending the
constitutional conference in Mogadishu"The elders who informed that they are aware of the illegality of
Secessionist Somalilanders participation in the conference urged the central
government in Hargeisa to reconsider the prosecution issue as it might
create disharmony within local populations as 100's of traditional
leaders from all parts of the country went to Mogadishu against the
wishes of the government.
According to elder Asayr Farah Bile, the minister of defence who
hails from the area should apologize to Badan residents for not only
terming their main traditional leader a traitor for participating in the
Somalia conference but for claiming that Al-shabaab terrorists have
established bases following safe sanctuary provided by the residents."It is surprising that a son of the soil who is the top most
government official from the Warsengeli clan can claim that his clansmen
are collaborating with Al-shabaab terrorists, not to mention him
calling his traditional leader a traitor" said elder Asayr The government delegation headed by minister Adami was in the area to
officially open various infrastructures funded by the government like
police stations and markets while collecting resident's views on the way
forward for local development.On the other hand the participation of traditional leaders from the
country in the Somalia constitutional conference held in Mogadishu was
criminalized by the government following a meeting with over 80
traditional leaders from all over the country.At the same time various reports (not yet verified) indicate that
Al-shabaab operatives have escaped to Eastern parts of Sanaag region
where they have established bases following a four pronged attack on the
terrorist organization by AMISOM, TFG, Ethiopia and Kenyan forces that
has dislodged the Islamist terror organization from a large swath of
areas formerly held in south Somalia. via allvioce
