Ethiopia being the very immediate neighbors of Somaliland is the one that gets the brunt of a country unwelcome by the international community for over 30 years. The people of Somaliland has been the victim of internationals hooligans and gangsters to coerce them live with another country that only existed for 60 years, more than half of which is characterized by failure, chaos and Islamic mafia. Ethiopia taking the lead to recognize Somaliland is again showing the world, Ethiopia is carrying on the legacy of independence and anti-colonialism.

Congratulations to Somaliland for you firmly stood for the over 30 years fighting for your freedom and now made the gangsters around the world crying foul. You only own your destiny, none can stop you becoming the Singapore of HoA.

People will soon find out Somali Land is an industrious country.
With access to the Ethiopian market it will thrive enormously.
The southern part of Somalia is convinced that they will benefit from having access to the bountiful Ethiopian market.
Ethiopia have zero interest of hurting the Somalians interest. It only needs access to the sea and Somalia will benefit with lease money and market access. Ethiopia will take care of security.
Ethiopians are jubilant with the prospect of working with the Somalians.

Somaliland already proved to the world. It was probably the only HoA country that enjoyed relative stability, social cohesion and conducted of series of democratic elections compared to any country in the region. Any sane person or credible objective institution can sentence Somaliland to be mixed with chaotic Al Shabab ridden Somalia. This is like a hog wash.

Yes, Ethiopia has the moral and historical responsibility that these two nations ( Somaliland and Somalia) to live in peace and reap the benefits of regional development. Somalia has a long way first to recover from over 3 decades of civil war, mutiny and excessive Arabic influence. That takes time. But, Somaliland is far a head in every aspect.

Did you know also Somaliland's passport is acceptable. Somaliland issues its own passports and is recognized by certain nations.

Somalilanders are very savvy. I met quite a few industrious somalilanders. Their attitude, culture and behaviour is different from the rest of somalia. Given the opportunity, they can create a mega economic hub in the region and prosper. Their attitude and respect for Ethiopians is unmatched. very peaceful people

I don’t trust the con artist at all. He always twisted something to satisfy his ego and power ambitions.

But the idea of working with Somalians to create a prosperous region is fantastic.
This will benefit Somalia and Somali Land.
I rather want it done with a reliable administration, the one after Abiye when Fano prevails.

Ignorance is bliss!

Mogadishu, Jigjiga, Eastern Kenya, and even Djibouti to a certain extent, are all Somalilands and not only the northern province of Somalia.

In addition, all Somalis are same. There are no Somalis that are better than others, or know stuff better than others. We also have the same culture, mentality, way of reasoning and seeing or judging things.

For instance, Zack comes from Ethiopia, albeit he has links in Djibouti, and I come from Somalia, and to me, he's just as if I had known him personally for ages, simply because either we don't any differences between us, or they're extremely minimal.

Therefore, never believe in case a clannish Somali tells you he or his people are better than others.

The poll suggested that United Arab Emirates and Israel are predicted to recognize Somaliland, following Ethiopia.

If Abiy’s administration right on Somaliland, why not he is on አማራ ክልል ህግ ማስከበር ዘመቻ?

The problem with Ethiopia’s intellectuals is shortsightedness. If you don't see the dots and are governed by you emotions and circumstances, Ethiopia is heading from ከድጡ ወደ ማጡ:: አይ እነ አበረ እናንተ እኮ የገባችሁ ምሁራን ትመስሉኝ ነበር:: ውጤቱን አብረን እናየዋለን::

The Somaliland issue should not be contingent upon Abiy Ahmed's rhetoric to evade the crisis in the Amhara region and Ethiopia at large. It is purely based on moral and rational ground that the quest for recognition of independence by Somalilanders has been so deeply inveterate dream of them for at least for 30 years. They already earned it. The world cannot have two standards. Injustice somewhere is injustice everywhere. Still the world chauffeured by hubirs. Why in hell, for instance, Egypt sailed down across nations and want to engage war? This is independent of who leads Ethiopia.

Are you serious? You have UN and AU charters that Ethiopia is a signatory to. But you don’t have any problem Ethiopia violating it. In addition, Addis Ababa is the seat of the African Union. All this put all international organizations in a very unpleasant position in that city.

But what your shortsighted point of view does not see is how much the geopolitical order has been changed in our region.

No one even wonders, if an agreement with Somaliland was already a done deal, why all the diplomatic offensive against Eritrea was needed and to what end?

Nobody knows of course.

But this might create or has already created a blessing in disgust for Somalia. They have at the end found a common ground that they can stand on.

Haile Sellasie and Nikrumah of Gana were the faces of Africa in the fifties, which culminated to Addis Ababa to become the political center of Africa. Beside his intrusion in Eritrea’s sovereignty, Haile Sellasie was regarded in Africa very highly. The little Galla twerp is destroying that image. There are many powerful capitals that can serve the African Union better than Addis Ababa now. Violating the sovereignty of an independent nation results in an out cast rebellious State. Ethiopia has become one of those. The idiot in Addis has no clue about statesmanship.

Somalians are far much superior to the hot headed Eritreans interms of wisdom.

The road to prosperity is wide open to Somali Land and Somalia. Use it wisely by working together with Ethiopians.
Passport and flags are just symbols as Africans are stuck to the 60s mentality of holding a flag high with empty stomach. Look at Eritrea, they are regretting it.
Use this opportunity and build a solid foundation to the future of your people.

____I am just wondering why Somaliland's quest for independence is a threat to you guys. You were supposed to be the champions of freedom. Let's heed to the idiom what is good for the goose is good for the gander. Justice delayed is justice denied - Somaliland deserved it a longtime ago

____ Egypt has been noisy and against Ethiopia since time immemorial. There is nothing new under the sun as far as Egypt is concerned. Ethiopia has all the arsenal to deal with that. Please never worry about that.

_____ I do not know what kind of Ethiopian compromises with the sustainable interest of Ethiopia other than Woyane and OLF. As a matter of moral and rational principle there should not be short selling of Ethiopian sovereign interest. This has no relation with Abiy Ahmed at all. Sure, Abiy Ahmed tries to use this for his political convenience. But it is immoral to welcome an arsonist like Egypt and create havoc on our homeland.

I guess common sense is a scarce commodity in Ethiopia.
