A sensitive meeting held last night at the Somali presidency resulted in a major decision to back the Speaker of the House of the People, Aadan Mohamed Nuur (Aadan Madoobe), as a candidate for the presidency of the South West State.
Somalia’s Ministry of Interior has formed a ten-member technical committee to lead reconciliation efforts in the Southwest State, following recent political changes and a presidential visit to Baidoa. The team is tasked with fostering lasting peace and preparing for a one-person, one-vote election in the region.
