Right before the beginning of every election that took place in the country, The UDUB had been making advantage of this strategy. It’s however, taking a habitual stream now on the same course, even though, the existence of this vast number of refugees at Djibouti had never been seen any where in that republic.

It’s impractical and unacceptable motive of Shameless UDUB to resort to importing Djibouti illegitimate voters in the pretext of rehabilitating home coming nationals. Right before the beginning of every election that did take place in the country, The UDUB Government had been making advantage of this strategy. It’s however, taking a habitual stream now on the same course, even though, the existence of this vast number of refugees at Djibouti had never been seen at any where in that republic, nor had been mentioned by the Government since taking over the Administration five years ago.

We do understand that, one of the principal factors of instigating this issue at a time, the Government is playing with hell fire, upon abdicating the Human Rights Umbrella of over forty human Rights Organizations at Gun Point and with a kangaroo judge, who followed the Deputy Justice Minister, carrying out the abdication.. A time Qaran Political leaders are politically kept behind bars in cold Political Conspiracy, where they committed-not, any violation, other than claiming for their basic Constitutional Rights.. A time, the Government had drafted a controversial law censoring and restricting the Freedom of Press, which is Clearly stipulated in the National Constitution as one of the basic Rights of the constitution un-ommitable, irreplaceable articles.

Another issue that forced this unimaginable shame on UDUB, is the current voter surveys done by the Private T/v station, over the six Regions and the subsequent media or press survey that followed, which both came with the conclusion of KULMIYE having scored unmatched numbers in the poll survey. The anticipated voter-refugees declared by the Minister of Rehabilitation is said to be 18000(Eighteen thousand) of which the first 1800 will be rehabilitated on Monday.. This means, before the Election Committee blow the whistle of the election day, UDUB has secured 18000 votes, other than the resident voters. The rehabilitation claim is just to give a legal cover-up to set up control camps for those Djibouti citizens, who will definitely return home, whence the contention is over. as had happened earlier.

The truth is, even if the government imports hundreds of thousands, the millions in Somaliland will no doubt, over-ride this number. It’s the peoples will, that do matter and not game-playing over a national consensus decision made. It’s about facts of Government Performance stock-piled in four years, which proved to be, good for Nothing, that prompted a healthy change on Country’s leadership through free and fair Elections. Government should urgently revise it’s haphazard and rather insane moves that may adversely bring about public disobedience, hence, anarchy and chaos.
