This is not good. I don't know what they are thinking.
Watching the video it gave me a flashback to this post.
For those of you that don't know, the blockade is a recent thing, just a few months old, understanding why it's there and reinforced is critical and as always you follow the money.

The answer is Mogadishu, the heavy Turkish investments and containers have literally shaken up the entire country and particularly how business is now conducted.

It's a 40x cheaper to use them to import stuff then your average none-container ports like Bosaaso/Kismaayo that cannot carry anything close it, the bigger the ship & container sizes, the more products can be loaded and the cheaper it becomes for everybody (business people and consumers alike)

The smart business people in P/land saw this trend and adapted, they began to use them, but as a result of this it had a domino affect on Bosaaso, it was no longer being used by much of the country for heavy stuff anymore because its more expensive due to lack of containers , but now even their business man were abandoning it.

As a result of this Gaas did what would appear at least on the surface to be a smart thing, introduced complete blockade in Gaalkacayo so nothing can come from Xamar anymore forcing business people within P/land to use Bosaaso port and also the population to buy from them, this is of course classically dressed up as Al-shabab threat.

The problem is that now the residents in P/land are paying almost 4x the prices for everything, while Gaas has allowed his business people to still use Mogadishu to sell to other Somali's for cheaper, while blocking trade the other way.

Remember always follow the money, this lobbying for the blockade has come from the top elite business people in P/land whom own a lot of containers in Mogadishu, I have the names of over 40 right now.

I am currently working on a report to expose them and pass them on to a contact in the government to use it against them, essentially banning them from business in Xamar if they continue to support this blockade which not only sends a nasty precedence but is causing a lot of pain and suffering to the consumers in P/land whom are the greatest losers here.

Guy talks about this exactly. + wanting people to be able to move around freely.

There's drought at the moment it's imperative to lift the blockade and allow people to move around in order to get sustenance
 
It has its benefits but in all honesty I don't think it's a good idea because we all know the end result, why? Since the blockade assassinations of innocent ppl came to an end and instability was no more, but now that the roads have been opened watch ppl of importance and also also shacab bieng assinated and the killers escaping and no one taking responsibility.

Ps something's are best left the way they are

The assasinations you're talking about came after the blockade.


But as the guy in the video said, I hope all fighting is done. Economic development is important to facilitate security and happiness

Economically you're right it's good, it's a city located in the middle of the country, which is a desirable location for all business minded ppl, but what good is that when, the trucks that's are suppose to transport goods are transporting weapons to all major cities, this is the reality on the table.

Btw there are some ppl who are using this blockade for their own business gains and are profiting from it and personally I think they need to be put behind bars.
