Former Prime Minister Hassan Ali Khaire Warns of Military Movements Targeting the Homes of Former Leaders

Mogadishu – The former Prime Minister of Somalia, Hassan Ali Khaire, has warned of the consequences that could arise from military movements he claims are targeting the homes of former national leaders in Mogadishu.

Khaire stated that these actions could create a warlike atmosphere that could lead to instability, security chaos, and political uncertainty in the capital.

“I strongly warn of the negative consequences that could arise from the harassment and military movements targeting the homes of former leaders in Mogadishu by the administration of the President whose term has ended,” said Hassan Ali Khaire.

The former Prime Minister also accused President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud of engaging in actions that could jeopardize the security of former leaders, stating that the responsibility for any consequences arising will fall on the presidency.

“The complex situation the country is in cannot be resolved through military force and intimidation,” Khaire said.

He added that the only solution to overcome political uncertainty in Somalia is to return to the negotiating table to reach an agreement on the country's elections. Finally, Hassan Ali Khaire called for a government to emerge through an agreed electoral process, which has legitimacy to lead the country.
