"When I was running for the presidential contest, the company donated me money but I am sure that he did not give me an equal money to that he gave to Mr. Silaanyo, however, I am not complaining," said UCID leader, Mr. Warabe.

" When Siilaanyo won the presidential post he gave everything to Dahabshiil including the national properties such as factories, land and houses; it is just like monopoly," said Mohamed Is'hak former Somaliland's Minister for a fishery.
