[Crow]

Why are reer gedo silent?

We tried to warn them. Now karma is finally about to hit them.

 

[Waaqo of Punt]

@Crow what was the dispute between Egypt and Ethio about the dam? I never followed up with it

 

[embarassing]

@Dues Ex Machete @kickz @AarLibaax @Creed @nomand @embarassing
Care to explain?

I agree the govt needs to do something about this. Why would you assume im okay with this?

 

[embarassing]

@Thegoodshepherd I remember you celebrating Ethiopia building dams on our rivers. What do you think about this?

 

[GBTarmy]

Because Farmaajo is in bed with Ethiopia? Those that live near the rivers are dependent on it they don't own as many livestock

It’s unfortunate because they already live in such terrible conditions that they are fleeing to Ethiopia. Complete disaster is coming to them, and all they care is about is undermining Puntland. Talk about misplaced priorities.

They own less livestock and are dependent on farming and their river, this will be catastrophic for them indeed misplaced priorities they rather instigate between clans in the northeast.

 

[Dues Ex Machina]

The current Ethiopian administration led by Mudane Abiy and the current Somali administration led by Mudane Farmaajo will not allow our respective citizens to be harmed by policies implemented by either party. Some people would love for our river to be impacted but that won't happen. It's the largest freshwater body in Somalia and starts in our region in Doolow and goes through Luuq and numerous other degmos.

and flows until it reaches the indian ocean through goobweyne mashallah.

And between clans in Somaliland

 

[GBTarmy]

And between clans in Somaliland

you already know the things going on there are related to this regime and its supporters that glorify dictatorship

[Futurist]

Everyone in the world knows this is critical, of major strategic security importance

Everyone except the failed so-called 'Federal government'

They are more obsessed with undermining peace and stability in Somaliland

This is where the water in the Jubba & Shabelle rivers will go

Ethiopia is planning to have 22 dams on the rivers that go into Somalia

To fully capture the water for irrigation - NO WATER will be left for Somalia

The master plan, which was finalised in 2005, has also identified six large dams together generating 1 000 MW and with combined storage capacities of 10 371 Mm3 . The plans include also water supply for increasing and urbanizing population of 15 millions. According to the Ethiopian master plans in the Genale-Dawa River Basin, 10 medium and large scale schemes with over a million hectares of potential irrigable land areas were proposed for irrigation consuming a large amount of water available in the basin [10]. The master plan, which was presented in 2007, identified 22 dam projects for potential hydropower development.

Funny how everyone criticizes fgs's flaws but never do the same when it comes to their regional adminstrations.

A dam on the Juba is actually a net good because it smoothens the flood/drought cycle, providing a steady flow of water across the seasons. Ethiopia cannot really use the water of the Juba because the area in which it flows is mountainous and not suitable for large agricultural development very much like the area near the Blue Nile dam. The Juba has almost 3x as much water as the Shabelle, so impounding it behind a dam will not result in as much evaporative loss. The Sha

Ethiopia did a great service for Jubaland, flood risk in Jubaland is now a thing of the past.

 

[Asaana]

they are a nation and we have to fight them as a nation. at the moment there is some fatahaad in baardheere. We need to know how much water will be transferred into the dam. at this moment somalia cannot do anything we don't even control our own country.

even egypt and sudan cannot stop the nile dam.

Egypt can stop it if they want. Assuming China doesn't intervene (since it is a Chinese project).
Sudan doesn't want the dam to stop. The dam is necessary for the country due to frequent floods and in general a surplus of water.

They use to live by what Allah give them on land. Cause their brain that low without water they are doom if Allah says too.

 

[Ahlubayt]

when they started this project during hassan sheekh, no a words/beep from the HAg admin,
now they have completed it.
It's farmaajo fault, dameer foqol dameer.

No Somali presidents has ever, went to jigjiga. Thousands of nobles heroes died to free somali Galbeed, and this what this dameer does.

Someone said the wars of the future will be fought over water......Well that person was right.

caqli xuma. we could simply sanction Ethiopia by not allowing them to use our seaports because of these dams.
