  1. People from Mogadishu and the former government of AUN Siyad are giving back to Somalia's second town…the separatists are meanwhile looting from the poor or holding them hostagevto 9th century tribal ideas and isolations that has placed the northern communities in limbo…now that Somali government is recognized as the only authority for all of Somalia…we will wait and see what the last two sub clan widows say next. Personally i want to bomb them until thick some and ashes are seen from space by NASA..

    • Looool brotha unless you looking for Muran (arguments) you know this map is dead wrong obviously Yaqoori and Caynaba fall under Khaatumo state, and why Buhoodle is outside of Somalia borders? Cajiib who designed this map tolow probably some khat head.

      • btw why are you fueling the problem and causing more crisis here lool let's just say midnimada Somalia waa muqadas, everything else will work itself out….

  2. @Kinsi SHEEGATO,

    You are talking trash as usual. You can be rest assured this hospital will be renamed as "Mujahid Lihleh Hospital" in a few years time . Marixaar and Heytiri have no place on Somaliland soil.

  3. thank you to late Dr Mohamed A Sheik and his wife. to building that Hospital in Hargeisa. But it would have been better if they built else where in the south. bc Hargeisa already have its Hospital and if you giving charity you should give where need is bad. I have another guess that the widow see it that Hargeisa is reliable and the largest Metropolitan for somali speaking. Any way thank you for gift to Hargeisa
