Mogadishu — Ahmed Diriye Ali, the spokesman of Mogadishu traditional elders, on Wednesday called for the people to stop holding violent rallies in support of Somalia’s popular prime minister Mohammed Abdullahi Mohammed.
Mogadishu protestors are refusing the prime minister to leave the office at this important time.
Ali stated that the president of Somalia, Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed and his premier said the Kampala accord will go before the parliament for approval or refusal.
He said the demonstrators and organizers are needed to wait for the parliament’s first session discussing the dismissal of Somali prime minister and extending government’s mandate for one year.
He went on to say the traditional elders are needed to pay extraordinary efforts to shuttle between the country’s top leaders in order to bring to end their differences which undermined the activities of government.
