Ethiopia is paying back Somalia for assisting Eritrea, just like SUDAN , after pumping so much weapon in south Sudan, SUDAN experienced the pain of being a broken up country . . The technique and operation will continue until Somalia becomes THREE LITTLE countries. Fact! the helpless government of Somalia will witness all of these from the comfort of its seat. Hahaha YOU SHOULD HAVE STAYED NUTRAL.

Somalia should be divided between kenya and Ethiopia that way horns problem is sorted out wolias cannot govern they're primitive islamist

@GelanGobanaBecho123

Ethiopia has no history of colonial occupation or being occupied by any other country, but has a moral obligation for genuine cooperation, mutual understanding and development plans for the region. Don't put your ugly false narative on the nation which payed a lot of sacrifies for the brotherly people of Somalia.

@asefnak4764

we are going to install our Pro_ethiopia government in Somali

Ethiopia is smuggling weapons for alshabaab

@thegreatnormad3424

Oromo slaves administration will bit the dust

@ambessashield9360

Bringing Egypt to Somalia is absolutely wild. Turkey already has military presence there which is enough for training. All gloves are off.

@Ahmed-gg4oz

Your journalist bringing outdated information and the journalist has no personality and her voice is monotone boring for us viewers. Puntland and Somalia are not on bad terms and the weapons came from Somali region of Ethiopia

@Burtukan-ld4lv

Ethiopia + Puntland + Somaliland + Algeria Vs Somalia + Eritrea + Egypt, Hard to decide who is going to come on top! Time will tell!

@popular7493

@juliusndungu-sv3ng

I can hear the war drums calling.

@GelanGobanaBecho123

For brother Somalia people , it is better to work with Ethiopia than Egypt which otherwise make them to pay a life long prices in the future.

@MohamedAhmed-rx8ym

In an open secret that Ethiopia is one of the backers of Al – Shabab terror group. Ethiopia officially entered Somalia December 2006 on the pretext of helping Somalia . 2007 was first time we ever heard suicide bombing in Somalia. They deceptively incorporated UN mission in Somalia. Main reason the UN mission never achieved any thing over 24 years. Ethiopia’s real motivation was Somalia to remain fractured state. However, another motive is becoming more apparent which is to cease Bab-Al-Mandan on the Red Sea. Ethiopia is desperately trying to disguise this as access to the sea for economic and commercial purposes for its large population.
However, this has been exposed when Ethiopia was offered sea ports by various nations in the region but Ethiopia declined it.

This dangerous ambition will not only affect Somalia but entire Red Sea region.

@jamesbaldy8447

😂😂😂😂😂😂just blame us for existing you blame every messed up behaviour trait of Somalia and pin on us 😂😂did you know we been greater than you since ever right? Because we focus on us please focus on Somalia wah could we possibly want from you😂😂😂when have you heard Ethiopia exploit anything goods or resources from Somalia???😂😂😂I think your scared of us because we have bond you can't break no matter how much we fight you can't split us up we want to be one. Maybe Somalia could try that for a change😂😂😂stop terrorising your people for religion that you never invented😂😂I'm habesha Muslim the least of our worries is Somalia or anyone else in Africa we only care about preserving our habesha identity regardless of religion we are or habesha from Amhara to tigray to Eritrea and you know there's no one in Africa that can stop us if we unite I really mean I in we could rule the world if unite. But the hate we get is so strong makes us hate each other sometime but once we overcome you have no chance the whole of Africa knows this. We have way more trouble to worry about so Somalia is least of our worries this got slot of publicity because you guys talk to much. Even Somalis in Ethiopia want to be Ethiopian stop forcing hatred almost half of us are Muslim.

@demsashtemesgen4439

Why does Somalia accuse Ethiopia of smuggling weapons into their state when their own president openly declared support for extremist groups in Ethiopia? Do they expect the Ethiopian government to just sit back and watch their actions? And what about the weapons supplied to Somalia by the now-deceased Egyptian government—is that justified? It seems like they're preparing to invade Ethiopia, yet they think we Ethiopians will silently watch as they stockpile arms. But we are proud Ethiopians. We will not stand idle. We will defend ourselves, and in the end, we will emerge victorious and celebrate our triumph!

@mikyas392

A lie is always faster than the truth. Last week the news was Ethiopia is arming al shebabb???, now it is puntland….. It is not a Good decision to accept Egypt's "help" . Look at Sudan's current war.

Ethiopia arming alshabab heavily since they created 2006. Ethiopia armed alshabab past to force western nations continue payments

Ethiopia is playing with fire 🔥 Ethiopia never succeeded in a war with Somalia. The dictator in Ethiopia that kills his own people must face regime change by Somalia and it's allies

@lance8080

Who cares it’s Africa 😂

@moeawale4891

Unbeknown to many people, Ethiopia was arming, smuggling and supplying weapons to all different Somali warlords and factions including somali land region and terrorist groups like al-shabab over 40 years. And the main reason was to fan in its instability to take advantage of it financially, politically, and above all, medium- and long term of geo-strategic interest to acquire free ports and do an outright land grab. Most Somali people knew about this and all Ethiopian politicians and leaders were on board for the illegal scheme while western powers turning a blind eye, if not working in tandem with. It is only we hearing now because of the national government of Somalia is trying hard to assert its sovereign authority over and impose a sense of order and normalcy on its long neglected and violated legal territory and exploited resouces within its legit land and sea borders.

@bonfire7803
