HARGEISA: -(Somalilandsun):The chairman of opposition party of Justice
and Development (UCID) Mr. Faisal Ali-warabe decried the government’s
silence over Taleeh massacre whereby Puntland region of Somalia has
taken over Somaliland territory by force killing and maiming her
citizens.
Mr. Faisal also accused Sool region politicians who he claimed cannot
lead without shedding blood.
He reminded the President H.E. Ahmed Mohammed Mohamud (Silanyo) that
during the last national conference which his party Kulmiye held
jointly with his party UCID the words he then uttered “today there is
no peace and security in Somalia and it is very absurd a land
belonging to Somaliland should be attacked by some rogue politicians
from Sool region who find happiness by shedding blood of their
people”.
“The previous war by the Khatumoist cartel was only to gain
parliamentary seats in Mogadishu”, he charged and continued, “Now this
militia are using Taleeh to win Puntland’s political favour by killing
their own people”.
He prayed, “May Almighty God have mercy on those poor Sools that lost
their lives”.
He said that the people of Taleeh have not seen a proper government
for 22 years and should not be killed because of want to gain
political capital out of it.
The UCID boss said that the silence of the government of Somaliland
over the interference of Puntland in our National affairs show that
the Kulmiye party is not honest on the nation’s independence.
. He said that in Buhodle there was a meeting being held by the
Khatumoist and Puntland controls east Sanaag region of Somaliland and
Taleeh.
“You can see the government is not policing the country’s borders”, he wailed.
The opposition boss told president Silanyo to consult with the
opposition on matters concerning the country.
He went on to say that while the President Rayale was in power he
(President Silanyo) used to tell him that “The power is in your hands
but the nation affairs concerns us all”.
