Guns are silent but war lingers for ex female ONLF fighters

[TekNiKo]

Five years later as the rebel war raged, the health of Hinda’s husband began to deteriorate. There was no access to medical centres in the rural countryside and if they ventured into the towns or cities for treatment, they risked getting arrested by the Ethiopian government.

That’s when Hinda and her husband made the decision to travel to Hargeisa in northwest Somalia. As the couple got settled there, things began to change for the worse, Hinda reveals.

“During one night, my husband received a call … After the call came to an end, my husband informed me that a relative we both knew called.

“I immediately told him to stop talking to that man because he was suspected of being a spy working with the Ethiopian government.”

Afterwards Hinda’s husband went to sleep. The next morning he woke up complaining of head pain. In mid-afternoon, he decided to go for a walk to clear his head but he never returned, Hinda tells Al Jazeera.

Once it hit nightfall, she began to worry. The following morning, with no sight of him, she made the decision to search for him, starting at the nearby market.

“Everyone I spoke to at the market gave me the cold shoulder. Each person I asked would either walk away or give me a bad look as if my questions weren’t welcome.”

Demoralised, she eventually made her way home.

For the next 30 days, Hinda searched all over Hargeisa for her husband through intermediaries and not directly, due to the fear of being discovered as an ONLF member.

“I had a couple of individuals I trusted check the local jails and police stations for any sight of my husband. I never got the answers I was looking for.”

With a group of relatives, she went to the headquarters of the Criminal Investigative Department (CID) in Hargeisa, but officers threatened her with violence if she continued asking questions.

“That’s when one of the CID officers came forward, smirked and asked where my husband was taken from and we told him the neighbourhood and then he said, ‘We picked him up.’ “

Hinda was shocked, yet relieved to at least know who had taken her husband. When she asked where he was being held, the officer said, “He was sent out west (in reference to Ethiopia).”

“That’s when I knew he’d been renditioned,” Hinda tells Al Jazeera, recalling her devastation at the news.

@Garaad Awal read this apparently ex ONLF fighters were hunted in Hargeisa and deported. The officer smiled in her face and said we got your husband.

He was taken to Jail Ogadeen

A couple of weeks later, Hinda got word from Ogaden that her husband had been taken to Jail Ogaden – a notorious prison in Ethiopia where a 2018 Human Rights Watch report said thousands of prisoners, many of them government critics, dissidents and civilians, had been detained for years under horrific conditions. Torture, rape and death were common.

“Once I found out my husband was in Jail Ogaden, I had to leave Hargeisa, knowing there was a chance I could risk the same fate

Seems like these people are despised everywhere. No one trusts them.

Guns are silent, but war lingers for Ogaden’s former women rebel fighters

Mogadishu, Somalia – Hinda Aden and her fellow rebel fighters were trekking through the grasslands of Ethiopia’s Ogaden region under the cover of night, to avoid the enemy’s gaze, when they saw headlights approaching in the distance.

Last real liberation front in Somali Galbeed was WSLF. Dhaanto in baadiyo doesn't count but the thought behind it counts. I don't agree with all their actions tho.
But it seems they had good intentions.

ONLF killed many MX in Neef ku Celiye, Qabridhagax was the commander during the operation. Alot of Reer Cismaan died. Dont have sympathy for such people.

They call it Ogaden National Liberation Front because it's for ogaden clan but I'd rather have ogaden stats than habesha. One is a lesser evil but still an evil.

Isn't he 83 right? He will be nearing 90 years old if he presents himself for re election again. I wonder if he's prepared a successor yet.
This will be madobe in 2030 to come back from the dead to rule JL for 5 more years.

He’s younger then Farmajo and Xasan Sheekh by a bit, nowhere near 83.

Likely successors right now are Seeraar, Qalinle, Xidig, and Qaladiid. If the Marexaan werent so bad faith someone like Ina Sayid could have got his shoe in.

You think Kenya and the UAE give a damn about interpol. Im pretty sure UAE is sponsoring a few genocides right now.

Interpol is the home of easy and will probably deny the red notice in a few weeks time anyways.

Mohamud Sayid Adan should never get JL president that would only teach horgals like him they will be rewarded with the highest office in JL if they betray their clan.

Good luck, international law that even Netanyahu can't escape won't be ignored for your uncle. I look forward to the day he croaks.

Ina Sayid deserves to be hanged, after the Doolow fiasco he has lost any ounce of support. I can't wait until the day justice is served.

Ali Eid actually works for the betterment of his subclan of marexaan celi at the expense of other marexaan and has some sway in GM but Mohamud Sayid Aden works for himself and his employer no marexaan other than him enjoys any sort of benefit.

Name one town in DDS that was liberated by ONLF.

Galmudug is actually a democratic state, its not a one city dictator like Madoobe's JL admin. There have been 4 Galmudug presidents since 2013.

Galmudug is fake 1.5 state and it's not even to our benefit. As of today they're trying to change the location of the taxes collected from the trucks passing throught caabudwaaq - itoobiya border to huurshe tiny little tuulo so that dir can receive the revenue and arm huurshe dir who are virtually weaponless so they can attack us in bangeele. It was less than a week ago when we hosted a reconciliation confrence between rer dalal and dir which did not go as planned and they tried to create a new opening to xeerale which is still under siege.

I will PM you about this later.

The ONLF are terrorists who massacred Isaaqs in Ethiopia. The new ONLF is the Liyuu Police who should be considered a terrorist organization. They are universally hated by all Somalis

What benefit can he bring all projects are through aid. Gedos admin is notoriously corrupt.

What does a proud Marexaan look like in JL because as far as I can see we’ve mostly left you to your own devices so I dont see how anyone else is to blame.

Gedo admin and DC offices needs a complete overhaul however that's unlikely, the men who are supposed to serve in these offices are picked by madobe for their loyalty to him and if they step out of line then they will get fired and replaced (ex. New Bardheere guudomiye replaced old one only to immediately side with FGS.) The men picked by madobe can do whatever they want as long as they stay loyal to him, from looting aid money to unfinished projects. Even what the diaspora trys to fund and build they try to loot it.


TLDR Gedo politicians class needs an overhaul so that they're loyal to their constituency not to kismayo. That's when we will see real political accountability.

‘Universally hated’…’All Somalis’…more lies. The only terrorists are the defeated iidoor that were commanded by the son of shabab member Aden Sunne in Dawacoley. There will be peace in DDS. It is not the chaotic SL region.
