Ousting PM Abdiweli was not an easy task after weeks of political deadlock and international communities pressure , more than 7 million dollar is spent to oust Abdiweli Sheikh Ahmed, according to an investigation made by the Waagacusub Media .
Abdirashid Ali Sharmarke is likely to be the 3rd Prime Minister of Somalia's weak and largely ineffective government .
Mr. Sharmarke is regarded nonentity and more controllable politician by members of Dammul-jadeed who believe that that the achievement of their personal profit lies with Sharmarke , but what will happen if Sharmarke is selected for the PM ?
Somalia's President will lose the trust of the Jubaland Administration which most of his interest lies and helped him during his political battle against former PM Abdiweli .
Mr. Mohamud will not only lose Puntland that its dreams is to get a president of hers in Villa Somalia or to disunity the entire Somalia but Jubaland administration will cut the tie with Villa Somalia as well for the result of Hassan's betrayal of not putting the economist and the former minister of Finance, Hussein Abdi Halane next to him .
Mr. Halane is reportedly opposed by UNSOM and EU for allegedly corruption scandal but Somalia's political experts say that Mr. Halane would be Mr. Hassan's best bet and would be a reason for Somalia to stand its feet again, which only Somali patriots love it .
Moreover, Mr. Hassan will follow the same fate of the late President Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed whenever a dispute arises between him and Mr. Sharmarke before 2016 , which he won't afford it and the consequence will lead him to pay the price of his idiocy and his unwise choice.
Many politicians have been competing to be selected Somalia's most powerful post of Prime Minister , some of them are Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed "Farmajo " , Bashir Nur Bidar, Ahmed Isse Awad, Dr Doodishe and MP Fawzia .
The failed politician of Mr. Sharmarke is accused of selling Somalia's oil-rich sea and signing indisputable Somalia 's maritime behalf of Somalia's government with Kenya, what Somali MPS called " a treasonous and Betrayal of Somalia's interest on April 7, 2009 .
