News: The Future Council Meeting in Nairobi Following Hassan's Action

Nairobi (Caasimada Online) – Members of the Future Council, which includes the Opposition Rescue Platform, Jubbaland, and Puntland, are expected to gather in the city of Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, in the coming days, where they will hold a crucial meeting, as confirmed to us by reliable sources close to the council.

According to Caasimada Online, the meeting will focus on the latest political developments in the country, particularly issues arising from the elections, as the National Election Commission announced the federal election schedule a day earlier, specifically for the elections of both Houses and the Presidency.

Reports further indicate that opposition members and leaders of the two administrations, Jubbaland and Puntland, will discuss the government's actions that they have previously criticized, describing this matter as a unilateral step that endangers the country.

Some of the key agenda items for the meeting include the leaders specifically discussing the implementation of previously prepared agendas and others regarding a unified decision on the Somali government's actions concerning the elections.

Additionally, they will hold various meetings with representatives of the international community to discuss the emerging situations, in order to find a solution to the prolonged conflict in the country.

The opposition groups have previously stated that the government does not consult anyone on the decisions it is making, describing this as something that has not even occurred during the military government.

“The middle ground cannot be established only by listening to me, no one is being consulted, and then being applauded is something amazing; even the government did not do that,” said Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed during a press conference held in Mogadishu on Saturday.

This statement comes as President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud denied last Friday the rumors regarding the Federal Government planning an attack against opposition politicians, stating that there is no one they intend to wage war against.

The President stated that political disputes can be resolved through dialogue, emphasizing that the door for negotiations is always open for the parties that have differing views.
