Below link is the complete report.

Here is the summary and the recommendations of the report titled “The Chained Constitution”. 

 Somaliland was a British protectorate from 1884 to 26^th June 1960. Somaliland amalgamated with Somalia without any condition on 1^st July 1960.  This political intermarriage aborted and finally led to a civil war, which caused the collapse of the state of Somali Republic. Finally, Somaliland declared unilaterally its independence from Somalia in 1991.

 Somaliland’s post conflict reconstruction was led by the traditional elders who successfully built a functioning government. Somaliland receives little support from the outside world. This gave the Somalilanders a potential strength to rely on what they do have rather than waiting aid. Business flourished with the peace and social institutions were reinstated. Thanks to the Diaspora support that remit money to families and friends, small businesses were started. 

The traditional structured government was transformed into a democratic system of governance after constitution was approved in 2001.  In a period of ten years (from 2002 to 2012), Somaliland peacefully held five elections. But, these elections were shrouded by irregularities. 

The last municipality election held in 2012 caused bloodshed during the Election Day and after the National Electoral Commission declared the results. The peaceful demonstrations organized by the lost Xaqsoor party were cracked down by the government. Excessive multiple voting and ballot staffing were reported.

Constant postponement of elections and extensions of terms have dragged the democratic system into uncertainty and hopelessness. No election was ever held on schedule.

 Somaliland adopts presidential system of government whereby the constitution clearly establishes separation of power between the executive, the legislative and the judiciary. But, the judiciary does not enjoy the independence and the impartiality guaranteed by the constitution. 

Violations of the freedom of expression and the independence of the media have increased in Somaliland. In this year 16 journalists were arrested. The headquarters of Hubaal newspaper was attacked by one Policeman and unidentified man. The manager of the paper was injured. Weeks after the attack, court suspended the newspaper and sentenced the editor and the manager of Hubaal newspaper. They were later released on presidential pardon. Journalists are constantly harassed by the authorities and some of them were beaten up by the Police.

Freedom of expression is a fundamental right granted by the international human rights law and the constitution of Somaliland.

The government of Somaliland refuses to grant license for radio stations. The only radio station based in Somaliland is the government owned Radio Hargeisa.

Demonstrations are not allowed in Somaliland except the government supported demonstrations and campaign rallies. The Police deal heavy handedly with the demonstrations and use live ammunitions. The Public Order Law is applied which gives the Ministry of Interior and the regional and district authorities the power to refuse demonstrations.

 Illegal detention and arrest are very common in Somaliland. Somaliland Police enjoy impunity. The civilian courts cannot hear any case against Police member.

The judiciary failed to protect the human liberty and the Police are accountable to no one.  Searches and seizures are not sought for warrants as obliged by the constitution, but the Police carry out without court warrant.

The recently established special Police unit, Rush Reaction Unit (RRU) which receives support from UK, employs intimidating means and gives no respect the legal procedure. They raid houses, search and seize property without court warrant and arrests people without warrant.

The constitution guarantees equality irrespective of gender. But, the role of the women in the politics is very low. There is only one female member of the parliament whose members are 164. There are three female ministers in the forty above ministers. There is no single female judge. The director generals and the heads of the administrative institutions are all male. The Parliament refused to pass proposed quota for women in the Lower House of the Parliament and the Local Councilors.

Rape and other sexual abuses increased this year according to the data collected in Hargeisa. Rape is the least reported offence, and those victims who dare to report face the challenge posed by the clan elders who interfere in the prosecution and arrange blood compensation. 

Women also face discrimination in the employment of the private sector, particularly the business entities. Women do not have equal opportunity with their male counterparts at the private sector. Many conservative male employers discriminate women in the recruitment of female candidates.  

 Girls drop out the schools in early age as parents prefer boys and the hard house work assigned for girls alone downgraded their scholastic performance. 

 Somaliland hosts refugees whom most of them fled from the neighboring Ethiopia. The process of registering the asylum seekers takes long time. Most of the Ethiopians work in low paid jobs with no protection. Refugee children work under harsh conditions. The principle of non-refoulement is not observed. Human Rights Center received complaints of Ethiopians repatriated forcefully back to their country where they could face threat.

Internally displaced persons are the most vulnerable people who receive little attention. Government services are very limited in the IDPs centers. Crimes, water shortages, poor sanitation, inadequate health facilities and the lack of enough educational centers live with the IDPs. As poor and less educated, the IDPs are not strong people who can advocate for their causes.

Traditional health center known as “Cilaaj” pose very serious threat to both the health and the liberty of the people. “Cilaaji” centers are money oriented centers that most of them are not registered and are managed by uneducated people. The government has neither strategy nor the necessary protection to cope this threat. As they gain more money from their clients, the lobby of the “Cilaaj” centers is very strong. The poor quality of the mental health centers provides opportunity the “Cilaaji” centers to attract many clients.

It is the responsibility of the government to safeguard and protect the rights of the child. Street children are harassed, harmed and live in misery. The children from poor families, particularly from IDPs and refugees, work in harsh conditions. The justice sector does not properly observe the Juvenile Justice Law. Juveniles are prosecuted as adults and are imprisoned with adults.

Soomaalida iyo Nabadda Aduunka

Soomaali. Soomaalidu maaha dad ku cusub aduunka iyo nabadiisa. Waxa Eebe ku abuuray degaan muhiim u ah isku socodka dunida. Waxa Waynuhu dhaxal siiyay geyi leh khayraad badan oo waayada qaarkiis ahaa waxa ugu qaalisan ee la heli karayey. Taas ayaa u ahayd fure xidhiidhka qotoda dheer ee ay la lahaayeen dadyowgii dunida, kumanaan sano ka hor, hadii aanay malaayiin sano ka hor ahayn.

Muhiimada Soomaalidu lahayd waxa xudun u ahayd dhulka eegaya badda cas. Dhulkaas oo ka sokow inuu yahay marin biyood isku xidha dunida, u ah iridda laga galo Afrikada Bari iyo badhtamaha Afrika. Mar aanay jirin diyaarado hawada mara, badda ayaa ahayd marin ka keliya ee qaaradaha la isaga gudbo. Sidaasdarteed, cidii ku socoto ilaa gudaha Ethiopia waxa ku khasbanaayen inay maraan dhulka Soomaalida.

Dhoofka iyo gancsiga adoomaha ayaa isna ahaa ganacsi xoogan oo muhiimada dhulka Soomaalida kor u qaaday.

Haseyeeshee, Soomaalidu may ahayn dad sahlan oo si fudud looga fushan karo dano badan. May ahayn dad leh maamul dhexe oo u wada taliya. Sidaasdarteed, dhibaatada soo wajihi jirtay cid kasta oo doonta inay saamayn ku yeelato dhulkaas muhiimka ahi may ahayn mid yar.

Reer Yurub waxay kala kulmeen Soomaalida dagaallo kulul iyo layn ba’an ka hor intaanay soo qabsan iyaga oo ku soo dhuuntay heshiisyo ay la galeen beelaha. Heshiisyadii kala duwanaa ee tusaale ahaan Ingiriisku la galay beelaha Somaliland may ahayn mid iska dhacday. Tobonaan sano ayuu Ingiriisku imanayay dhulka Soomaliland si u sahimiyo una ogaado siday u nool yihiin. Taasi waxay ugu kacday qiimo badan. Dad badan ayaa lagaga laayay. Wuxuuna u yiqiin dhullkan meel ay degen yihiiin dad adag oo aan si sahlan loo qabsan karin.

Badda Casi may ahayn meel si fudud la isaga maro. Balse duulaanada ay Soomalidu ku qaadi jirtay mid socda ayuu ahaa. Tani waxay ku xasuusinay waxa hadda loo yaqaan budhcad badeedka ee reer Soomaliyi ka sameeyaan badaha Soomaalida.

Soomalidu waxay u ahayd welina u tahay laf dhabar nabadda aduunka. Berigi hore awoowayaasheen taas way ogaayeen. Inagu se maanta waxaynu isu aragnaa dad liita oo dunida aan qiimo badan ku lahayn.

Dhulka Soomaalidu degen tahay wuxuu ugu calaamad san yahay dunida meesha ugu muhiimsan. Soomaalidu waxay leedahay taarikh dheer. Taariikhdaas raadkeeda quruumo badan ayaan jeclayn oo mafiiq mariya si uu u tirtirmo. Dabcan buug badan ayuu ku xardhan yahay. Kuwo aynu hayno iyo kuwo aynaan hayn ba.

Dadka aan jeclayn taariikhda Soomalida ee tirtira waxa kow ka ah Carabta. Carabtu waxay la lahayd Soomalida xidhiidh dheer oo ay sabab u ahay derisnimada. Soomaalida oo ku noolayd dhul hodon ah waxay u arkaysay Carabta dad liita oo iyaga ka hooseeya. Balse markii Diinta Islaamku ka soo baxday dhul Carbeed, Soomaalidu kamay san taagin sidii Yuhuuda ee way aqbaleen Nebigii Carbeed (SCW).

Carabtu waxay dooneen inay si kale uga faa’iidaystaan Diinta oo ay kor u qaadaan Carabnimada. Dalal badan ayay taas kaga guulaysteen iyaga oo bedelay qoomiyado badan oo aan Carab ahay. Tusaale ahaan Afrikada Woqooyi.

Soomaalida oo waxa Carabi tahay tiqiin way sixi waayeen inay bedelaan. Qarniyo kadib waxay ku guulaysteen inay bedelaan abtirisiitna Soomaalida oo ay ku arooriyaan Carab. Haa. Taas waa ku guulaysteen. Ma wayna hadaad u eegtid dadyowga aan maanta luqadoodii ku hadal ee la dhalan rogay. Mana yara hadaad eegtid sida dhalinyaradeenii maanta ugu jaahwareersan yihiin abtirsiin aan ka badnayn kun sono oo ay ku abtirsadaan. Waxay iswaydiinayaan waqtigaas ka hor maxaanu ahayn?

Qalinkaa ila aaday meel kale e, waxan uga dan leeyahay Soomalida nabadda aduunka way uga muhiimsan tahay dalal badan oo isu haysta inay qiimo wayn leeyihiin, balse inagga ayaan taa garawosan. Soomaali waxan ula jeedaa inta ku hadasha afka Soomaliga, ha joogaan Jibuuti, Ethiopia, Somaliland, Kenya ama Somalia. Taariikhdaa hore Soomaalida Ethiopia, Jibuuti iyo ta Soomaaliland waxay ahaayeen isla hal mid keliya. Gumaystaha se kala qoqobay. Yeelkeed maanta midnimo durbaankeeda tumi mayno oo waxay dhasho soo aragnay. Waxaanse lama huraan ah in taariikhdeena iyo qiimaheena aynu dhuuxno oo aynu aragno xooga aynu leenahay.

Khataraha Dhaqaale iyo Amni ee Dekeda Cusub ee Jibuuti Dhisanay ku leedahay Somaliland

Dhowaan madaxwaynaha Jamhuuriyadda Jibuuti wuxuu dhagax dhigay deked cusub oo ay yeelanayso Jibuuti taas oo laga dhisayo duleedka xuduudka Somaliland. Sida ay sheegtay dawladda Jibuuti, dekeda cusub waxa loo dhisayaa si looga dhoofiyo xoolaha nool. Qoraalkan waxaynu kaga hadli doona khatarta amni iyo midda dhaqaale ee ay Somaliland ku keeni doonto dekedaa cusub iyo waxa xalku noqon karo.

Dawladda Somaliland lacagta u badan ee miisaaniyada, qiyaastii 70%, waxay ka soo gashaa cashuuraha dekeda Berbera. Kuwaas oo intooda badan laga qaado xoolaha nool. Sidoo kale guud ahaan dhaqaalaha Somaliland waxa laf dhabar u ah dhoofinta xoolaha nool. Dhibaato kasta oo ku timaada dhoofinta xoolaha nool waxay Somaliland uga dhigan tahay in la jaray dhuuntii nolosha.

Xoolaha ka dhoofa dekeda Berbera maaha dhamaantood xoola ka yimaada dhulka Somaliland. Qayb badan oo ka mid ah xoolahaasi waxay ka yimaadaan dhul daaqsimeedka Hawd ka ee dhaca gudaha xadka Ethiopia. Dhulkaas dadka degan waa xoolo dhaqato reer Somaliland ah oo aan iyagu wax xuduud ah aqoonsanayn, balse xoolohooda ula guura hadba meesha ay doonaan. Ethiopia oo ah dal aan lahayn bad waxay u aragtaa in xoolaha ka dhoofa dekeda Berbera ay yihiin xoolo ay leedahay Ethiopia sidaasdarteed, waxay mudo dheer ku taamaysay inay hesho fursad ay xoolo kaga dhoofiso Berbera. Arinkaas oo ay diiday Somaliland oo u aragta in xoolahaasi yihiin xooleheeda.

Dekeda Jibuuti maah deked awood u leh inay dhoofiso xoolo. Sidaasdarteed, Ethiopia may haysan meel ay ka dhoofiso xoolo. Taasina waxay u ahayd Somaliland nefis.

Sida cad hada waxa heshiis wada gaadhay Jibuuti iyo Ethiopia. Waxa laga dhisayaa deked gudaha Jibuuti waxana la doonayaa in laga dhoofiyo xoolaha Somaliland. Xusuusnow, Jibuuti ma laha xoolo ay dhoofiso. Waydiintu waxay tahay khatar intee leeg bay ku tahay Somaliland dekedaas cusubi?

Khatar Dhaqaale

Sida aynu hore u soo sheegnay dhoofka xooluhu waa dhuunta nolosha dhaqaale ee Somaliland. Dhaqaalaha dalka waxa laf dhabar u ah xoolaha nool. Miisaaniyadda Somaliland na waxay ku dhisan tahay xoolaha nool.   

Xooluhu waa waxa u badan ee Somaliland debeda u dhoofiso ee ay ka hesho lacagta adag. Hadii ay istaagto dhoofinta xoolaha nool, waxaa meesha ka baxaya awooda dhoofinta ee Somaliland leedahay.

Khatarta Amni

Hadii hoos u dhacdo ku yimaado ama ay joogsato dhoofinta xoolaha nool, waxa meesha ka baxaysa lacagta soo gasha dawladda Somaliland ee ay ku wado dalka. Taas oo ay ku bixiso mushaharka ciidamada iyo shaqaalaha.

Sidaasdarteed, way kacay dawladda Somaliland mana yeelanay awood ay ku maamusho dalkeeda, kuna ilaaliso jiritaankeeda. Waxa hubaal ah inaanu jiri karin dal aan dhaqaale haysan.

Xalku Muxuu Yahay?

Dal waliba wuxuu xaq u leeyahay inuu difaacdo danihiisa meel kasta oo ay ka gasho. Waa taas sababta Masar ay ugu heelan tahay inay dagaal ka xigto biyo xidheenka Ethiopia ka dhisanay gudaha dalkeeda. Waa taas sababta dawladina anay ugu eekeen xuduudeheda marka jiritaankeedu khatar galo.

Sidaasawgeed, waxa la gudboon Somaliland inay qaado talaabo adag si ay uga hortagto dhisida dekedaas. Taaso ay ugu horayso inay si dipblomaasiyadeed ku wajahdo. Hadii se taasi shaqayn waydo waxay Somaliland xaq  u leedahay, waajibna ku ah inay dagaal ka xigto dhisida dekedaas oo khatar ku ah qaranimadeeda.

Hamish Wilson iyo Bandhigii Hargeysa

23.8.2013, waxay ahayd  hebeen si qurux iyo qiime leh uu u soo bandhigay taariikh iyo waayo isugu jirta arag iyo maqal Hamish Wilson. Bandhigan waxa soo agaasimay Machadka Daraasaadka Nabadda iyo Khilaafka ee Jaamacadda Hargeysa. Waxa ka soo qayb galay dad aad u badan oo ay ka mid ahaayeen madax xil hada hays oo uu ku jiro Wasiirka Arimaha Debedda iyo hogaamiyayaashii SNM oo kuwa ishaydu qabatay ee aan ka xusuusto ay ka mid ahaayeen Cabdiraxmaan aw Cali Faarax, Ibraahim Dhegowayne, Maxamed Xaashi Cilmi, iyo qaar kale.

Hamish Wilson oo mudo badan ku qaatay inuu la noolaado dadka reer Somaliland isaga oo ka qaadayey sawiro, wuxuu soo bandhigay habeenkaas sawiro si wayn u iftiimiyay dhaqanka iyo taariikhda dadka Soomaalida ah guud ahaan.

Sawirada uu soo bandhigay waxay isugu jireen laba qaybood, kuwo uu ka qaaday nolosha miyiga iyo kuwo uu ka qaaday waqtigii magaalooyinka Somaliland ay burbursanaayeen ee laga soo noqday dagaaladii lala galay Maxamed Siyaad Barre.

Sawirada uu halkaas ku soo bandhigay Wilson waxay ahady taariikh aad u mug wayn oo si wanaagsan oo farshaxanimo leh u faah-faahiyay taariikhda guunka ah dadka Soomalida ah. wuxuu si heersare ah u qeexay in dhul xebeedka Somaliland, laga soo bilaabo xeebaha Sanaag ilaa Saylac inay ahaayeen dhul taariikh wayn leh oo dadyowga dunidu la lahaayeen ganacsi aad u dheer mudo fog. Ganacsigaas iyo xidhiidhkaas oo ay ka mid ahaayeen dadyowgii la lahaa dadka Somaliland Giriiga, Faraciintii iyo qaar kale oo badan. Waxa u badan ee soo jiitay dadyowgaas xidhiidhka la lahaa dadka Somaliland waxay ahayd beenyada ka baxda gobolka Sanaag.  

Wilson wuxuu si haboon sawiradiisa ugu muujiyeen sida dadka Somalidu u leeyihiin dhaqan qoto dheer oo waayo aragnimo hodon ah leh. Dhaqankaas oo uu ka buuxo cilmi, qaarkii yahay saynis.

Wuxuu soo bandhigay hab nololeedka dadka Soomaliland ee ku kala nool dhulka aad u kala duwan, xeeb, buuraley, banaan hawd IWM. Meel walba degaankeeda iyo cimiladeedu waxay ku qasabtay dadka degan inay u noolaadaan hab u gaar ah, taas oo ay xitaa ku jirta aqalada ay dhistaan.

Wuxuu sidoo kale sawiradiisa ku muujiyay doorka ay bulshada Soomaalidu kal siiso haweenka iyo ragga. Iyada oo ay si wanaagsan u muuqatay sida ay door aad u wayn oo hogaamineed ugu leeyihiin haweenku nolosha miyiga.

Wilson wuxuu ka sheekeeyey isaga oo sawirada uu soo bandhigayey marag ka dhiganayey farsamada heerka sare ah ee dadka Somalidu leeyihiin ee ay ku samaysan jireen weel, doonyo iyo qalabka guryaha.

Wilson wuxuu fuulay buuro dhaadheer iyo dhul aan la gelin oo aad u fog fog, dhul kulayle ah oo biyuhu ku yaryihiin, dhul qaboobe ah iyo laagag haadaamo ah oo aanay sahlanayn in la gaadhaa. Wuxu ku qaatay dhulkaas habeeno iyo maalmo badan. Wuu la noolaaday dadkaas isaga oo sawirona ka qaadayay. Yaab ayay ahayd inuu ka sheekeenayey buuraha dhaadheer ee Sanaag, Xiis, Maydh, Midhisho, Raqas, Calmadow iyo meelo kale oo badan.

Wilson kuma eekaan intaase wuxuu soo bandhigay sawirro naxdi badan dadka ku abuuray, xusuusiyayna waayo iyo taariikh la is-dhaafinayey. Waxa goobtaas lagu daawaday Hargeysa oo u eeg magaalo la rogay oo dhul gariir baabiyey. Meelo badan oo maanta ay ka dhisan yihiin guryo iyo daaro qurux badan oo 1991 dii ah bur bur iyo baaba’. Hargeysada maanta la buuxdhaafshay oo cidla ciirsi la’ ah oo dad iska daayee xayawaankii ka cararay.

Wuxuu ku celceliyay guubaabadiisa ah in Hargeysada maanta aanay ahayn meelo si sahlan oo fudud ku timi. Waxa halkaas lagu daawaday waxyeeladii iyo halaagii uu u gaystay dalka keligii taliyihii macangaga ahaa Maxamed Siyaad Barre.

Balse ha u malaynin in uu ku soo gebogebeeyey murugo iyo ciil. Wuxu dhinaca kale soo bandhigay sawiro muujinaya wadadii dheereed ee loo soo maray dib u heshisiinta iyo dhisidda qaranimada Somaliland.

Wixii aniga iigu yaabka badnaa wuxuu ahaa sawir laga qaaday damaashaad lagu soo dhowaynayey ku dhawaaqidii gooni isu taaga Somaliland. Dadkii isku soo baxay waxay siteen waraaqo yar yar oo ay wax ku qoreen. Kii ugu soo jiidashada badnaa waxa sidatay haweenay waxana ku qornaa hadalkan Ingiriisaga ah “We, Somaliland, apologize to the British”. Ingiriisku markii xoriyada ay ka qaadanaysay Somaliland wuxuu kula taliyay inaanay degdegin oo midnimo gelin ee ay sugaan mudo ay wax ku bartaan. Lagama siisan. Haweenaydani waxay kolkaas leedahay raali ka ahow inaanu kaa diidnay taladaas oo aanu soo aragnay qadhaadhka milalkii aanu malabka moodnay.

Kuuma sawiri karo taariikhda sawirada uu qaaday Wilson, balse waxa haboonaan lahady in la sameeyo goob lagu ururiyo waxyalahaas taariikhiga ah si aanay ugu lumin gurhaya dadka kala duwan ee qaar ba in hayaan.

Time to end terrorism

Eid Mubaarig to the family members, friends and everyone else. To those who fasted so long and endured thirst and hunger, it shows your strength and commitment. Ramadaan unites so many people in different environments, languages, cultures and political systems. It is time we all speak one language and say no to intolerance. Let us be peaceful Moslems who respect each other and respect the others.  

In Ramadaan we refrain from all evils and curb our apatite. We all direct to ourselves prayers. However, there are people who are Moslems, but kill innocent children, women and men around the globe. They increase their barbaric actions during Ramadam. Lives were lost in Iraq, Somalia, Afghanistan and other places.

Let us say in one voice no to the terrorists. It is time we do not watch, but act to defend the true interpretation of Islam.

Few hardliners hijacked Islam and the mainstream Moslems are silent and busy with their daily lives. We are suffering from the actions of these extremists whom we did not give a mandate to speak or act on behalf of us.

Why we shall not act on our will. The time of blaming outsiders on our mismanagement and the failure of our leaders shall come to an end.

 Atrocities are committed every day on the name of Islam. The burning towns, villages and cities are inhabited by Moslems. Just watch the TV; the headlines are Syria, Egypt, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Somalia. It is not good news, it is the worst news you may ever hear.

Let us end terrorism.

Somaliland: Khataraha amni ee sahaminta shidaalka

Hordhac

Waxan qoraalkan ku eegi doonaa khataraha amni ee heer gobol, midda gudaha iyo heer caalami ee ay keeni karto sahaminta shidaalka ee ka socota Somaliland.

Khayraadku wuxuu ahaan inta badan waxa u wayn ee keena colaadaha aduunkoo dhan. Waxa la isla ogyahay in khayraadku cidhiidhi yahay (scarce) oo aadanuhu ugu jiro tartan.  

Dhinaca Africa, colaadaha dami waayay ee ka taagnaa tan iyo markii wadamada qaaradu xoriyadooda qaateen, waxay badi ku salaysnaayeen khayraadka dabiiciga ah. Bal u fiirso, waxa ugu colaado badan Africa dalalka khayraadku u badan yahay. Eeg DR Congo.

Dagaalada ku salaysan khayraadka dabiiciga ahi maaha mar walba kuwo maxali ah. badiyaa dalalka shisheeyaha ah ayaa u heelan sidii ay si fudud ugu guran lahaayeen khayraadka Afrikaanka.

Somaliland iyo shidaalka

Shidaalku waa tamar aad loogu baahan yahay oo soo saaristeeda la jecel yahay. Somaliland in shidaal ku jiro cidina si fiican uma cadayn. Waa se rajo la qabay mudo dheer. Dad badan baa u arka in gorofka caydha la tuurayo hadii shidaal la helo. Waxay u arkaan in rajada u wayn ee Somaliland leedahay uu yahay iyada oo soo saarta shidaal.

Taariikhda iyo ifafaalaha maanta jiraa se taas waa beeninayaan. Musuqa iyo boobka lacagta ka soo xeroota shidaalka ayaa u ah siyaasiyiinta Africa hami ay hiigsadaan. Eeg Nayjeeriya.

Tan iyo intii sahaminta shidalku ka bilaabantay Somaliland waxa soo baxay muran iyo qaylo xoogan oo ka imanay inta badan beelo. Taas oo marar keentay gacan ka hadal dad k u dhinteen. Tusaale ahaan aaga Caynaba.

Dooda dadka ka keenay sahaminta shidaalku waxay u qaybsamaan laba. Waa ta kowaade, dad badan ayaa diidmadooda ku saleeyey beelnimo iyo saami ay ka dooneen shidaalka. Quud aan jirin qoryo u guro. Waa shidaal aan weli la qodin. Waa foolkii kowaad ee colaadda uu soo wato shidaalku. In kasta oo si cad dastuurka Somaliland u sheegay in khayraadka dabiiciga ah lawada leeyahay oo soo saaristiisna ay u xilsaaran tahay Dawladda dhexe, hadana waxa muuqata in taas la iska indho tirayo. Khayraadka dabiciga ahi waa wax lawada leeyahay oo aan cidina gaar u sheegin karin ayna tahay in si siman loogu qaybiyo dadka Somaliland. Sheegashada beelaha degaankooda sahamintu ka socotaana waxad moodaa inay baal marsan tahay wixii lagu heshiiyay.

Ta labaad, waxay ka imanay dad waxgarad ah oo u arka in hanaanka loo maray sahaminta iyo heshiisyada la xidhiidha inuu yahay mid sharciga baal marsan oo madmadow ku jiro.  Lama horgeyn heshiisyada lala galay shirkadaha samaynaya sahiminta Golaha Wakiilada oo sharcigu waajibinayo in loo geeyo.

Shidaalka Somaliland iyo shirkadaha caalamiga ah

Waxa iyana qayb ka ah dhibta shirkadihii ruqsadaha la siiyay ka hor 1991 oo qaba inay iyagu xaq u leeyihiin qodida shidaalka. Aagaga hore ay shirkado ugu haysteen ruqsado ayaa Somaliland u siisay ruqsado shirkado kale. (Page 243, Report of the UN Monitoring Group on Somalia and Eritrea). Kuwaas waxa ka mid ah shirkadda BP oo aag ay sheegtay inay hore ugu haystay ruqsad hada la siiyay Ophir Energy Limited.  Sidoo kale aag ay hore ugu haystay ruqsad ConocoPhillips ayay Somaliland siisay shirkadda reer Norway ee DNO. (page 243, Report of the UN Monitoring Group on Somalia and Eritrea)

Heer gobol

Is-faham darada iyo dhibaatada dhextaal Somaliland iyo Somalia waxa ka mid ah shidaalka. Shirkadaha aan kor ku soo sheegnay waxay lakala saftaan labada dhinac.

Maamul goboleedka Puntland oo ah gobol ka tirsan Somalia wuxuu isna u siiyay ruqsado aagag ka mid ah Somaliland shirkado. Wuxuuna diyaar u yahay inuu xaqiijiyo in shirkadahaasi gaadhaan dhulkaas. Taasi waxay keeni kartaa dagaal dhex mara Somaliland iyo Puntland. Werwer kan oo kala ah aya lagu muujiyay warbixinta Kooxda Kormeerka.

Sidaasdarteed, wuxuu keeni karaa shidaalku colaad heer gobol ah.

Maxaa u furan Somaliland

Dawladda Somaliland waxa la gudboon inay u deristo arinkan si taxadar leh. Waxa haboon in la daahfuro oo mugdiga ku jira heshiisyada ay gasho laga saaro ayna noqoto wax la heli karo oo dadka soo doortay ka warhayan.

Sidoo kale waxa haboon inay Somaliland ku baraarugsanaato saamaynta siyaasdeed ee ay leedahay arimaha la xidhiidha shidaalka. Waa inaad maanka ku haysa in uu saamayn ku yeelanayo shidaalku siyaaadda arimaha debedda iyo xidhiidhka aan la leenahay dunida kale. Shirkadaha shidaalku waxay leeyihiin saamayn wayn oo ay cod ku leeyihiin go’aamada wadamo badan (pressure groups).

Hadii sahaminta shidaalka go’aanada lagu qaadanayaa ay ku salaysnaadaan oo keliya dhaqaale, waxa aan shaki ku jirin inay waxyeelo u gaysanay Somaliland.
