SWG is following what is happening in Somaliland with worry and
sadness.
Somaliland Watch Group deplores and condemns the assassination
attempt on the life of Mr. Qabili a government critique and
anti-corruption crusader.
This demonic act is a new phenomenon to Somaliland political culture
and a way of life. It is utter madness for some people to try to
silence dissenting voices and views by way of threat and
assassination. This kind of act is new to Somaliland.
this ought to stop not only for the sake of Somaliland peace and
stability but also for the stability of the whole region
The perpetrators of this heinous act were hired felons. The real
perpetrators are behind the curtain. Those who were behind this evil
operation have no clue the ramifications and the extent of the
consequences of such un-Somalilander act could bring to the peace
and stability of the country
Many people are pointing their fingers at the presidency! The
chairman of a major opposition party (UCID) claimed that he received
threatening messages from the presidency. This protest preceded this
assassination attempt on the life of a law maker of the same party!
Whoever was behind this disturbing act is a criminal and ought to
bring to justice.
We don’t have a reliable confirmation whether the presidency was
privy to this incident; however the underhand and the hired
assassins must be brought to justice
This is not the right way to run a government. It is up to the
government to go to the bottom of this evil act.
We call the president that he must investigate and bring the
perpetrators to justice before every thing gets out of his hand, as
soon as possible
