[Garowe] A school headmaster was targeted by al-Shabaab ...... the personification of Somali state failure...murderous Moslems on Tuesday, authorities said, just a few days after the government announced the death of close to 225 murderous Moslems across the federal republic of Somalia. Eyewitnesses said that the High School administrator was killed in a kaboom believed to be from a device attached to his car in the vicinity of Dayniile district, Mogadishu in Somalia, but the reason behind the liquidation is not yet known. The victim has been identified as Dahir Hassan Toohow known as Dahir Digdigle. He was the principal of Dayniile School according to reports. The explosion occurred near the district headquarters in Dayniile. Since then, the al-Shabaab holy warrior group has grabbed credit for the killing of Dahir Digdigle. The group’s media claimed the victim was one of the delegates involved in the election of MPs in Galmudug ...a semiautonomous region in central Somalia, bordering Puntland on the north. Galmudug is not trying to obtain international recognition as a separate nation, but rather considers itself autonomous within the larger Somali federalism, for what that's worth... state. al-Shabaab has been assassinating people involved in Somalia elections.
