Southern Leader Accuses Puntland Of Being The Mother Of Piracy

Mogadishu, Somalia, October 24, 2009 (SL Times) – One time warlord and current member of Somalia’s parliament, Qanyare Afrah, accused Puntland’s regional administration of not just supporting pirates but having created the problem of piracy.
Talking to the press in Mogadishu, Qanyare Afrah warned that pirates are now threatening the whole Somali coast and it is time to attack the problem at its source which is the Puntland administration.
Qanyare Afrah added that the pirates are well known and openly live in Puntland’s capital, Garowe, where they own property and keep their piracy equipment and other tools of the trade.
This is not the first time that Qanyare Afrah criticizes the Puntland administration. Previously, Qanyare Afrah had criticized an agreement between Sheikh Sharif’s government and the Puntland administration for being too favorable to Puntland.
