    Somalis everywhere are offended and bewildered by fellow back-ward thinking African, Kenyan by citizen and black by colour. Mr Kikorir has certainly felt the intensity and high volume emails and articles imparted on the net in response to his latest articles. In this letter, I am going to further the discussion and this time not only warn him, but also to help him think better when addressing unknown audience. In his surprise, I congratulate Mr Donald for certain reasons.  I am certain that Mr Donald has all the mental scars to show caused by his attempt to test the water, but I am also certain that his priggish has now been crushed.

    To start with my discussion, I appreciate our shortcomings as a nation and our inability to succour our self and rebuild our nation.  The ongoing atrocity inflicted on us by us and as a result of this we invited almost everyone including Kipkorir to contemplate alien options for us. Having Mr Donald and other made that the attempt to, is our failure and I am accepting that with integrity.  We created the opportunity for them to contemplate our destiny, and they are using that. It is not my intention to lament about our past, but we need to take our fate seriously; without you and I Somalia and Somalis are reduced to extinction.  But be Warned Sir, this does not qualify anyone outside of our race to purport such articles and attack our right to exist even with words.

    Men are expected to confront realities that are born of their actions and accept its consequence.  Somalis (God bless them) are intelligent and entrepreneurs, but we unfortunately abandoned our responsibility to care our people and put aside our differences for the benefit of us all. Having reminded my respective Somali brothers and sisters our shared failure and urging them to bravely stand, rebuild the nation and heel the widely open scars of our entire existence, this is what I say to Donald(using his false  name).

    Mr,! you dared not once but many times to provoke Somalis with your writings and they had impressed you as to how quick and immense they responded aggressively to your articles. Thanks to all of those including me that had the time and decided to respond to you, while millions of us have overlooked, ignored and not bothered to. In addition to this, none of those responded had indicated their qualifications in their articles, while in fact almost all of them are better educated than you.  It is your right Sir to think freely as we all do, but you are mistaken to oblige yourself to offend others. Your articles about Annexing Somalia, although deemed impossible has drawn you to a hostile environment at least in the Pen-world circles. I have learnt a lot about you since fellow Somalis started heralding your articles and are published on the net. Those of us who know you most including Somali Kenyans and others gave us a glimpse of your previous articles. This elucidation of your articles, have already subdued our resentment and helped us to judge you in retrospect.

    The amount of controversy and discrepancies in your writings are hardly distinguishable. Your audiences across the globe are left baffled, astonished and are in doubt of what to believe in your articles. There is no logical sequence and no substance throughout your arguments. Your hatred and envy of Somalis have overtaken your case and there is not substantial evidence to escort your articles. But Congratulation you have won it!! The highest confiscated and intellectual nation (Somalis) is now talking about you and you made yourself known. This is a lifetime achievement and will definitely boost your CV for job hunt.

    Mr Donald have a closer look this statement in your last article and please looking from original position try to make sense of it : Kenya,, by all standards, is a state, while Somalia is a state in name only as it does not even have one flag.” Here is your challenge and homework for you to find out and contrast the difference between “ State, Failing State, failed State, Collapsed State and Twilight State” I hope by the time you acquaint yourself with these terms, you can easily point where Kenya as a state fits in the  ranking.  I have also advised you to consult with more books especially history ones to appreciate Somalia as a nation or as a state before you decide drafting another article.  I hope that you exploited my advice and using it to your advantage to make your article attractive and sounding.

    What about this assertion of yours in the opening of your article. Can anyone associate this with any logical conception? Here is what you stated: When I called for Somali’s division last week, I expected the vitriolic reaction I have received from the war-weary country’s refugees in the US , Britain , Denmark , Eritrea and Mogadishu . But what shocked me most was the reaction of Somalis with passports of Kenya , America , the UK , Denmark and Canada .”

    Who dare to make sense of this sentence? I challenge any of us who agree this statement to be true unless otherwise in the same mood. Someone calling the division of entire nation and their State, and shocked when responded by the very people he purposefully targeted. Rancorous responsive!.This is what we [Somalis] call “Lunacy”! In its purest form!. We are now left no option but to question your eminence when you wrote these articles and fabricated such inconsistence arguments. If your judgement of Somalis is by the paper (passport), you are wrong. For us Somali is Somali regardless where he/she lives or which nationality they hold. For instance, do you know by being Somali irrespective of what nationality, you have the absolute rights to hold any position in the Somali republic; he/she can be elected or can lead the nation. This includes Somali Kenyans; And Now you know it!.

    Finally, my fellow brothers and sisters have given the right response and contrasted your flawed arguments. But I am here to acknowledge your articles as Attention Seeking Attempt Which you achieved. For that, I congratulate you! But at least you are now better informed, and cognisant.
