Reportedly elected as the interim President of the Hiiraan State administration, the recently ousted governor of the Hiiraan region is still a contentious figure.

Ali Jeyte Osman, the former governor of the Hiiraan region, has been strongly opposed by members of the Hawadle community within Somalia’s Hirshabelle administration.

Ali Gudlawe Hussein, the president of Hirshabelle, orchestrated the decision, which has heightened local tensions and drawn harsh criticism from Hawadle clan members who believe it was rash and unwise.
