Somali Regional leaders Say They Dont Recognize President Farmajo

(KDRTV)-Tensions are high in Somalia as the regional leaders say they don’t recognize President Mohamed Abdullahi Farmajo. 

This is after the President`s term expired on February 8, 2021.

The regional leaders from Somalia`s semi-autonomous regions of Puntland and Jubaland skipped a meeting called by Farmajo to address the stalemate on the paradigm of an election.

However, President Farmajo`s office tweeted photos of him meeting four other regional leaders.

KDRTV understands that Somalians led by opposition leaders have been staging protests seeking that President Farmajo leaves the office and announce another election.

At the same time, Somalia`s parliament had approved the law that allows the incumbent President to remain in power until the next president is elected.
