The outgoing President of Somalia, Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, stated that they are in constant communication with former President Mohamed Abdullahi Farmaajo, however, the other members of the opposition are armed and he does not have any communication with them, as he put it.
“Farmaajo and I always talk, we exchange messages, but my other friends [the Opposition Forum] have taken up arms and that is not politics,” said Hassan Sheikh Mohamud.
Hassan Sheikh Mohamud's statement comes at a time when the rescue forum and Farmaajo have clashed over the unified approach to negotiations that the international community is set to facilitate in Mogadishu.
Opposition politicians, Puntland, Jubbaland, and members of both houses have previously announced that the term of Hassan Sheikh Mohamud has ended and they will take any steps necessary to save the country from his extension plans.
