My fifth paper for @GI_TOC has just gone live!

Over eight months, we catalogued 425 weapons and over 3,200 rounds of ammunition in 13 illicit markets across #Somalia.

(thread)

globalinitiative.net/analysis/somal…
The research showed that assault rifles were priced approx. $90 higher in southern Somalia than in the north.

The pricing data constitutes tentative corroborating evidence of a north-south illicit supply chain, with weapons becoming more expensive the further south they travel. Image
Over 60% of documented weapons were of apparent #Chinese manufacture, with an additional ~20% manufactured in #Russia (Soviet Union). Image

My third paper for @GI_TOC has gone live today.

It details illegal fishing practices in #Somalia and the capture of state institutions by illicit networks. (thread)

Many thanks to @ian_urbina // @OutlawOcean and @C4ADS for their assistance!

globalinitiative.net/analysis/illeg…
The report presents three case studies to illustrate the intersection between illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing networks and state corruption:
#1 - The environmentally destructive operations of gillnetters of Iranian origin off the #Puntland coast, abetted by a network of local agents and fisheries ministry officials.

The Financial Governance Committee (#FGC) has issued a damning advisory note concerning the #FGS Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources' (MPMR's) oil & gas licensing efforts.

Current approach provides "poor value for money...that may last for 40 years or more."

(thread)
The FGC raises concerns over "incomplete compliance with the FGS legal framework, and inadequate protection of FGS’s financial interests." Current MPMR approach risks "future legal and/or compensation claims against FGS."
The FGS makes seven principal recommendations. #7: "PSA negotiations do not prioritise short-term revenue (i.e. signature bonuses) at the expense of longer-term value."

"The #US change in #Somalia has nothing to do with Somalia and has to do with US politics" - a source
There's also legitimate concern that the #FGS will try to deploy #Danab around #Mogadishu to suppress any uprising at the end of the Presidential election. #Danab was formed to be a crack force against al Shabaab, not to suppress a democratic process.
The Somali federal government recently upset the US by ousting and imprisoning the #Danab commander and replacing him with one more loyal to the current president.

A race btw #FGS & #IC(@US2SOMALIA, @NBerlangaEU, @UNSomalia)has begun while IC bombs #Dhuusamareeb3 with heavy artillery from Dhabalif(Triators, corrupters & confederates) & d #FGS is using Dabadhilif fighting aircraft with d rule of law to try to erase them🤔 #Somalia #Mogadishu
The race is over, the losers from the #FGS had no chance of getting out of the way, on the contrary, those from #IC have been so agile that they bombarded with Dabadhilif #Dhusamareb3 that everything was over quickly and we now have to dismiss our team.😱#ImpeachFarmaajo #Somalia
I feel beaten, frustrated and angry, and regret not going to bed earlier, I can't digest and go to bed with these bitter bill now? I hope when I wake up tomorrow to hear better news than what #Farmaajo was able tonight, No from Parliament.🙄#Somalia #Mogadishu #Puntland #Galmudug

#NFD alone isn't viable of threaten secession against d Gov. of #Kenya, so they count on #Somalia to support them but lately, some of them were Kenyans & used Kenyan soldiers to enforce their will in #Jubbaland. U can fool d #Somalis once but not for all days.#Mogadishu #Galmudug
You wonder why I don't support fake unionist, dear #Somalis we can hardly keep together what belongs together & the two #NFD #SomaliState have always used their Masters to achieve their interest in #Somalia & cause havoc & isolation of now #FGS & then #SDR😉 #Mogadishu #Jubbaland

An ORG. of lawyers established to promote professional competence, enforce standards of ethical conduct, & encourage a spirit of public service among members of the legal profession, will become a bunch of nothing if U misuse it for Gulwadenismus. Just saying🤷🏿‍♂️ #Somalia #Puntland
On my trip 2 #Garoowe next yr, I will definitely need a lawyer, by seeing #Deni & his world view through d median, but certainly not from ur organization, bc I can’t be sure of d service U will offer, if it will be treated honestly.🤨
#Somalia #Puntland #KGS #Mogadishu #Galmudug
I'm ordinary #Somali, it makes me sich when I see how d intellectuals have all been corrupted by this curious system in #Puntland. Everyone in #Garoowe has failed, d lawyers, d doctors, d teachers & everyone else who understands how good Governance works🤔#Somalia #Mogadishu #KGS
