The First and Only President of Somalia

President Aden Abdulla Osman

Aden A. Osman (MGBHS) was the First and Only President who ruled a whole, sovereign and relatively democratic Somalia. The first and only who governed and finished his term with wisdom, consensus, and diligence. The first and only who handed over power peacefully and a fairly coherent country. The first and only who lived and died in his homeland as an ordinary citizen with dignity and honor. 

May the memory and legacy of the founding and first President console his beloved Somalia. Guide and enlighten the cohorts for whom fealty to the honeypot of power and foul ambition takes precedent over the solemn oaths sworn in the name of the Almighty God and in the best interest of the nation.

Hassan Keynan

Genocide looms large.  3) Strategize and quietly mobilize to isolate and expose the paranoid and genocidally inclined cabal of chauvanists and war criminals for who truly they are. Don’t throw them a life line by gracing them with sovereign agency and legitimate authority.  4) Presidents and senior exec

  The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and its progenitor, the African Union (AU), ought to tread carefully regarding how they perceive, approach and respond to the events unfolding in Niger. The decision to impose heavy and punitive economic sanctions on Niger, with such astonishing speed and enthusiasm, was unfortunate, to put it mildly. For ECOWAS to declare a war on Niamey, coupled with incessant and cacophonous threats of an imminent and overwhelming invasion, seems beyond comprehension. What exactly do ECOWAS and AU want to achieve in Niger? At what cost? And in whose best interest?  The official statements issued by ECOWAS, and supported by the AU, mention a number of demands, including: categorical rejection of the method in which power changed hands in Niger, immediate and unconditional release of President Mohamed Bazoum,  restoration of civilian rule, and denunciation of all forms of external intervention. Some of these could be achieved relatively quickly
