Will the chairman of the supreme court of Somaliland show a moral
fortitude?
Ref: “the case the Four parties; JAMHURIGA, NDB, HORYAAL and UDHIS
forwarded to the Supreme court or the constitutional court of
Somaliland regarding their right to win or lose by popular vote as
to participate the Municipal elections.
Will the Supreme Court show a moral fortitude and say NO to the
injustice the government is pushing against the rights of the four
parties mentioned above?
There is a talk in Hargeisa that the president called xeer
ilaaliyaha guud ee qaranka Xasan Axmed Aden iyo gudoomiyaha
maxkamada sare Yusuf Ismaaciil Cali,
the top judges of the land to his house as to tell them some thing!!
That some thing is about ‘what to do with the targeted parties which
a government nominated crowd called- party commission, mismanaged
the process of legalizing the parties which are supposed to
participate the up coming Municipal elections.
Calling the judges to execute the government’s agenda is a scam in
its highest levels. Why are they hastening to do evil….! “Lima
tastacjiluuna al sayiata qablalxasanah” Allah asks his servants “why
do they hasten to do evil actions while they can do righteous deeds
The judiciary must not follow the “Guurti and the legislatures who
abandoned their duties and chose to be cabals and functionaries for
the executive!
Let the targeted parties be given their rights to run for the
Municipal elections should that happen at all.
In a real democracy, a president wouldn’t call the judiciary to his
house /office to tell them what they should do or shouldn’t do for
government created political fiasco, nor would a judiciary bow to a
government political program focused for some targeted people as to
deny their rights to form their parties and run for elections!
The judiciary does not work for the executive but in Somaliland they
do work for who ever the president is!!! I hope they do not
“kalshaalize” this issue as they did many other issues before!!
I am calling the chair of the constitutional / Supreme Court to show
moral fortitude this time and side with the justice.
An official of SOMALILAND WATCH GROUP told me that they are
concerned of the de-democratization activities going on in
Somaliland and for that reason they are coordinating this case with
the international groups who help Somaliland in the areas of
elections and democratic advancement. The official told me that they
are worried of what Siilanyo’s administration is doing as well as
what they are not doing regarding the process and development of
democracy and the dispensation of justice to all communities in
equal bases in Somaliland!!
I am asking president siilanyo “why is he (most of the time)
choosing to do wrong deeds while he can do the right deeds!?” I
believe it is mostly the wrong people running the affairs of the
nation. The very people he chose. That does not mean he will not be
accountable to the bulk of the misdeeds and mismanagements in his
administration! The buck stops at his desk!
With out The existence of an opposition, politics ceases and
dictatorial administrations take over. Therefore political parties
and not cabals and functionaries are indispensable to the
functioning of democratic political systems
Genuine political opposition parties are not some thing to be afraid
of! Only Shaky administrations are scared of the opposition parties
for they are not sure of themselves and because of the wrongs they
do every time they want to do some thing. They consider them a
threat. But they are not; they are necessary attributes of
democracy, tolerance, and trust in the ability of citizens to
resolve differences by peaceful means.
Mr. President, let all the political parties exercise their rights
to run for the Municipal elections. It is not a matter of passing
one’s money back to him in bribery form, to solve a problem emanated
from your administration! It is a matter of rights. Let the people
whether you like them or hate them practice their constitutional
rights to run for office, to elect and to be elected. Only a popular
vote can qualify a party to become the national party. Only by vote
would they win or lose. Not touching same moving heads from region
to another region as the case was! You may not get funding for this
undemocratic act from the international community.
Let the vote be the verdict of who wins and who loses and not the
moving heads! Let us be fair here and else where as well. Let us be
kind to the Mother, once.
Peace and prayers for the Mother
Ibrahim Mead
