Puntland and the equally autonomous Somaliland seem to have avoided the clan rivalries and warlordism that have typified the rest of Somalia, which puts both places high on the list for Islamic subversion...
’s Nugaal region Abdisalam Hassan Hirsi has died of his grave wounds after AlShabaab suicide kaboom in Garowe on Sunday night.
