Here is a thread of Farmaajo's efforts to embolden the terrorists:
Farmaajo's thirst for power made him forget war on terror and has been redeploying troops from the frontlines to territories of his political opponents. More to the threat of AS, #Gedo is also affected by drought but over 10M USD was used to deployed troops to rig elections

Farmaajo also refused to remove troops from Gedo to help Qoor qoor fight AS in Galmudug.

In the clip below, the sound of fire exchanges can be heard. The narrator reports of mortar landing on civilian homes in parts of Balad-Hawo, a border town, in #Somalia. The fighting subsides at the end of the narration, suggesting lull in the fighting.
This footage, if valid, reports damages on Somtel, Somali telecom. This comes after Kenya airfare destroying Hormud, another Somali telecom; the latter can constitute a war crime, civilian target

Ethiopian troops have killed 11 civilians and one member of parliament during elections in #Baidoa. They have sent a plane full of soldiers to try and intervene in #Kismayo during elections. How is this country a contributing member of a 'peace-keeping' mission in #Somalia?!!!!
#AMISOM is discredited and now directly and openly involved in Somalia politics and internal affairs!! Exit plan needed and urgently. They went from a 'peace-keeping' mission to a threat to stability of Somalia!!!
