I thought we are better than this

This is Mr. Hadraawi proudly saying this: “Waligay Meel laga codaynayo intaan warqad qaatey kuma aan redin oo walle ayey iga tahay! 10 Urur ha la furo Oo nin walawb jaantaa Rogan Maaha Dimuqraadiyad” (Haatuf January 14, 2013)

I don’t understand what the man was talking about in respect to democracy he already demeaned it and did not appreciated it, nor recognize it as what it is, but that was not the point. The point he was supposed to address was why the oligarchy administration of Mr. Siilanyo is undoing what the successive governments of Somaliland did for the last twenty years of this 2nd Republic!? I was shocked how Mr. Hadraawi stampeded or ignored the question! The man seemed justifying the destructive actions of Siilanyo’s administration which undermined the foundations of our Republic which are:
1- The unity of her people which Mr. Siilanyo divided and further divided them.
2- The sanctity of Somaliland cause which has been weakened and tarnished!

a) He did not address how Siilanyo’s oligarchy administration damaged the process of democracy by organized a fraudulent election.
b) He did not address how cruel and uncaring Siilanyo’s oligarchies were in action and behavior when the police shot and killed innocent civilians in Hareisa, Borama and Zeila as a result of the revolts emanated from the fraudulent elections. Those real issues were off the radar of Mr. Hadraawi.! (Unfortunately that was Mr. Hadraawi)

Mr. Suleiman Gaal, the chairman of the Guurti called the victims of the rigged, fraudulent Municipal elections like Muj. Hassan Isse and others losers! “They will cool down as days go by,” he said! That was his pathetic and outrageous comment to the victims whose votes were manipulated and stolen. Like Hadraawi he did not attack the perpetrators which is the government, on the contrary he attacked the victims!
The question is; who is the loser here!? It is the country and the people of Somaliland who are the real losers. Who failed them!? Of course the two houses in which Mr. Suliman leads one of them and the presidency, failed them!
The victims of the rigged votes and the targeted political parts are not losers; they are victims of vote rigging by the oligarchy government of Mr. Siilanyo and like Mr. Hadraawi Mr.Suliman Gaal’s radar failed to see that as well! (That was chairman Sulieman)

A member of the parliament stood up against the shooting of the civilians in the above cities and this is what he said in a forceful way! “The government must not shoot the civilians in the head, they must shoot them at their legs!” why shooting civilians in the first place Mr. Member of Parliament? And that was the thinking brain of a representative of the people!(That was a member of the House of Representatives)
I thought we are better then this. It seems I am wrong!
