Abdullahi Alas deserves to lead a county or the country. He's brilliant and pragmatic. His county should take advantage of his ideas. 👍

Cheers Sir Abdullahi. I have been totally captivated listening to you and Wow. I appreciate your thinking, reasoning and realism. You have touched and implied on some very poignant points here. We not only lack Thinkers but pitifully we also lack the Will to act. Deceit, theft and pilfering and lack of accountability are the order of the day in our governance systems. We lack the guts to question our leaders and hold them accountable. My salute and sincere regards to all fellow citizens in North Eastern Kenya. Cheers

🙋I feel the need to correct those Kenyans that are misquoting him. He said kenya does not need prayers alone; work and pray. Some people pray all day with no work . If prayers don't work he would not have been in the mosque at 3 to 7am. Be kind in your comments and listen!!!!!! Stop Hating he has very valid and ingenous input.

Kenya will never prioritize investing in NFD area the same reason Ethiopian government won’t invest much in Somali region; because they both know very well that in life everything goes back to its origin at some point, it is just matter of when. The tactics of buying time by way of keeping Somalia in war and fragile won’t stop the inevitable either.
