Bro I agree with what ur saying but I think if he chooses a good qualified Abgaal, that's definitely gonna Solidify his unity and show everyone at home and abroad that qabiil is definitely dead, it's a very good measure and the rewards are far greater.Duchess is playing the old Bermuda triangle Elitist isku-dir tactic that worked to perfection when Hiraab collided in the 90's.
However what she doesn't realise nor factor in is the rapid psychological change the residents of Mogadishu went through since all the wars, there is zero appetite for this, Qabiil is totally dead in the city at the grass root levels for more then a decade and none can resurrect this again
If there was such a thing as Abgaal unity, the 8 years of presidency would have showed it and Amisom would not be needed, the same thing for HG, AbdiQasim was opposed by his own clan and this is more then a decade ago and he and his body guards couldn't leave their zones of influence.
Mogadishu is split by 3 parties, the most powerful right now is Daljir (every Qabiil is in it former Ahla sheikh group), then you have Damul Jadiid we all know & every Qabiil is part of it including Kulmiye, then you have Islah an offshoot of Muslim brotherhood type, same story there as well.
The only places were Qabiil politics is relevant is S/land and P/land, everywhere else it's dead, P/land has a 3.5 system, you will never see anyone other then the bermuda triangle take power there, 18 years of Mohamoud Saleeban unrivalled power since it's creation, at least S/land gave it to a minority for 8 years.
