President Abdiweli Gaas received three million U.S dollars from DamulJadeed, the Federal president Hassan Sheikh Mohamoud in return of recognizing Galmudug state, a plan rejected by the Puntland parliament.
As for Mr Gas, a skirmish between Galmudug and Puntland forces could be a good chance for withdrawing his soldiers in Garowe to cope with the challenges he has been receiving from politicians that hail from Garowe.
He deployed approximately five hundred soldiers and all the munitions in Garowe.
Taking advantage of the Galkaio skirmish, Gas has materialized his hidden decision and declared that he recognised the Galmudug state without anyone questioning about it.
Abdikareem Hussein Guled also wanted to get the weapons in Adado where he has been receiving a challenge from Saleebaan sub-clan of the Habargidir clan.
In this way, Mr. Guled received the backing of the Habargidir and succeeded to bring all the weapons in Adado to Galkaio. He has his own Transitional presidential compound in Galkaio.
Guled is pretending as a politician that forced Puntland to recognize the regional state of Galmudug which is contrary to fact because it was prearranged work agreed to carry out both Mr Gas and Mr Guled.
It is clear that both sides of Puntland and Galmudug are very happy the peace agreement, however, the pressing question on many Somalis is why so many innocent civilians were displaced or killed unnecessarily?

A Facebook photo posted by Somaliland President Abdirahman Mohamed Abdullahi (Cirro) has triggered widespread speculation among Somalis online, with claims that the President is preparing for an overseas trip — including rumours linking the visit to Israel.
