Many Somalilanders are in still asking questions about the controversial decision taken by the family of the Late Tubec’s to bury his remains in Mogadishu  instead of  Berbera of Somaliland, where the deceased Artist Tubec hails from originally.

Federal Government of Somalia made clear that the deceased musician will be given a state funeral with full national honors.

  1. If his immediate family choices to bury him In Somalia instead of Somaliland, that is their wishes there is no if or but about it.

    If they truly honest, the family should also, thank the Somaliland government for forming a committee to bury the late musician incase the family wishes to bury his remain at his birth place of Berbera, Somaliland.

  2. man they can bury him where ever they wish, not a big deal guys. Why you're so sensetive this way. Maybe the guy prefered to be buried in muqadishu so his family can only respect his wish. It is just so st*pid to comment on that

  3. The late M.S. Tubec was undoubtedly a legend. In regard as to why was he buried in Mogadishu instead of his birthplace, Berbera? well, if it was indeed a family decision as it's reported, a moment of privacy should be given to his family and friends as they're dealing with an irreplaceable loss.
    A death of a true Somalilander artist shouldn't ignite a political showdown between Somaliland and the failed state of Somalia.

  4. Every human being on this planet wishes to be buried the place (home town) they came from (born) so there are lots of question marks on this??????????

    • Since racists took over where he was born, the best option was to be burred where you're loved. The former Berbera the later Mogadishu.

        • @ Hanad – Mugadisho cannot buried her sons & daughters murdered by AMISOM troops on daily basis let alone someone else so this is all politically motivated no doubt.

          @ Leyla – Anything is possible sister.

  5. Egg on the faces of Siilaanyo and Saylici for seting up a 'committee'. Given that people die in Somaliland all the time maybe they should set up a 'standing committee' – standing that is untill they fall. Not the committee. Silanyo and Saylici. They useless duo

  6. WHERE IS SOMALILAND, WHERE THE LATE DECEASED MOHAMED SULEIMAN BELONG TO. WHERE IS HIS LAST DECLARATION, WHERE DOES HIS LIFE HISTORY ORIGINATED FROM? THE SOMALILAND GOVERNMENT HAD UTTERLY FAILED TO EXECUTE ITS DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THEIR CITIZENS, I AM AFRAID. WHAT A SHAM WAS THAT, MOHAMED SULEIMAN WHO WAS THE SOLE MIRROR OF SOMALILAND HISTORY, IS BEING BURIED IN MUQDISHO, SOMEWHERE HE DOES NOT BELONG TO WHATSOEVER, OR EVEN DREAMED OF EITHER.

    • According to Somali state television I am sorry to say that the officials in Mogadisho snatched his dead body for reasons of imperialism. I mean what is the point lying to the world that you control Somaliland when you can even walk for too minutes to nowhere plus you don't give a penny to support other starving Somalis.
