A dejavu of 1994 !! - Do Puntlanders
ever learn ??
Abdi Mohamed <gacmo67@hotmail.com>
In the time capsule, 1994 was the year of misinformation and malicious
propaganda between Puntlanders. Every week in the political circles of
Puntlanders there was a letter or two supposedly written by some famous
Puntlander; the letters just kept coming. The honorable Gen. Haman, Walde,
Xasan Ali Mire etc, supposedly signed most of the letters. It was aimed to
postpone and cancel the Qardho meeting.
Some elements from North America were the fonts of this passionate thrill
seeking political misinformation. Not only that the letters were
misinformation, they were a total fabrication.
Finally, the web of fabrication and misinformation had engulfed a graceful
and polite heavy weight (Gen Holif). To the surprise of everyone in a large
meeting in his house, the deception was meticulously uncorked. He realized
the damage the elements had done to his name and almost collapsed in a
shock, when he and participants of the meeting found what was brewing all
along and who was responsible.
Although the intended victim was Ina Yey, later the real victim clearly was
a shattered trust and maligned suspicion. It is hard to build a trust, but
easy to break!! New elements are again trying the same old trick with
newfound inertia. Before it was a fabrication of letters written by the
elites of Puntland and now it is letters written by Ali Saleebaan, Cismaan
Maxamud, Omar Mahamud, Reer maxamud, Dashiishle etc.
Don’t be surprised if you see your name in a letter circulating in the net!
Because there is another Qardho meeting in August!!!!!!
Then the difference between the old trick and the new trick will make this
one totally a new ball game! The old one destroyed trust between
individuals, because the rallying cry was an individual against individual.
But this cry is tying clans and individuals to a lump sum!
I hope Ina Yey, member of the cat family as the name attests with his nine
lives will pull one more time safely and sound. Then again, if he does that
is what is expected, while for every body else would have made him earn
medals…..Poor Ina Yey!!!!!!!!!
