The city of Jawhar became the mecca of Somali conflicts. Colonel Abdullaahi Yusuf Ahmed, the president, and the veterinaran Ali Mohamed Gheddi, the prime minister, very recently relocated to the city of Jawhar where more than half the members of parliament oppose this city to become resident for the government. Despite this opposition, the international communities overwhelmingly send delegations to Jawhar. These organizations meet members of the government, who support the Colonel's cause, behind closed doors, disregarding the other side of the barrel.

The donor agencies, the representatives of the donor nations and all other concerned delegations, by visiting this city, either directly or indirectly contribute the differences to be wider. The president and his followers in Jawhar receive members of international communities with welcoming smile. After each meeting, press conferences are held and success and mutual understanding speeches are delivered. While all these activities are going on, in and around Jawhar, Colonel Abdullahi's plan to put his clan on top of others is being exercised in other parts of the country. He pursues army building in Beledweyne, Hiiraan, and Huddur, Bakool, and acquires weapon from Yemen and Ethiopia.

Whether Colonel Abdullaahi was democratically elected or not, his mind is absolutism and he will extend his muscles as far as he can reach. The only language he communicates with is force. His government was never built to serve the public. Had he been for the public, he would have to gone to Somali populated cities. The head of this government had blood on his hand and he never gets enough of it. The crisis in Puntland was created by the Colonel simply by diverting Puntland budget to his briefcase. The people responsible for the security in Puntland did not receive salaries since the Colonel's comeback from Yemen.

The colonel wanted one thing in his life, and that is to become a president. He called himself a president in Puntland long before Nairobi. When he got what he wanted, he wasn't prepared for it. He should have resigned the end of the so called election day when the announcement was read. He should have resigned when those comments about Abdiqasim was made public. He should have resigned when so many brutal acts of his past was discovered. He should stop being arrogant and bear some responsibility.

Absolutism and democracy can not work side by side. The parliament passes/rejects motions by majority. Job descriptions for each portfolio is respected. The Colonel can not play double standard here and claim he is the outcome of democracy but for some reason absolutism became indispensable. The colonel should use common sense and use either system: Absolutism or Democracy.
