So much for being the beacon of democracy in the Horn of Africa. Muse Bihi’s admin sentenced a poet for offending the President and a YouTuber for filming the poems and posting them online.

The “offensive” poems in question criticizes the administration while praising the opposition party Wadani. Is this worth imprisoning someone? You be the judge.





Amira posted a video begging for leniency from Kim Jong-Bihi explaining that all she did was interview the poet and post the videos on her channel.



Somalilanders are mocking her in the comments. If only she were from the right Habar subclan this wouldn’t have happened to her. #JusticeForAmira

Why are folk surprised, it’s just a another third world dirt poor, dictatorship with a cult following. BuTwEAReaDemOcrAcY

Somalis should ask themselves 'what does democracy even mean?' Democracy does not only mean having always credible elections every few years. Democracy means Liberal Democracy and there has to be a realisation of all civil liberties alongside having authorities always being freely elected

I wonder if they let him out occasionally for an outing

I'm torn between hating on Somaliland and being happy a functioning Somali Government exists that can arrest mooryans in an instant.

Guul Somalilland, the only way to deal with Somalis is arrest them and drag them kicking/screaming to the 21st century.

I love the snitching culture there wallahi. Look vaguely suspicious? Getting snitched on. Somali's have no sense of order laakin when they can snitch on you it's go time.

When you see diaspora SLers supporting all these arrest you have to wonder whether Somalis are a mentally deranged race. Arresting a single person for political dissent sets a slippery slope. I don’t see how anyone can excuse it.
