Burao October 27,2022 (SD) – A consultation meeting held in Somaliland’s second largest city Burao by the Garhajis Clan, concluded with a condemnation of the enclave’s electoral process.

In a released communique, the Clan has urged finding an agreement between the three national parties before the end of the term of President Bihi on November 13, 2022.

The clan has also insisted that the presidential election should be held within the technical period announced by the country’s electoral committee and if that does not happen, no election will be held in the areas where the community resides.
