The Independent Committee for the Review and Implementation of the Constitution announced days ago that the new constitution will be implemented, with the 14th of this month set for ministers and also members of parliament, to separate the two roles of ministerial and parliamentary.
"On the 14th day of October 2026, Article 81, Paragraph 1, letter (f) and Article 117, Paragraph 3(a) of the Constitution, which governs the separation of members of parliament and ministers, states that a minister who is a member of parliament loses membership in the Council of Ministers. Likewise, a member of parliament loses their membership if they accept another government position," the committee's latest statement said.
Somalia is currently in a critical phase, as a serious crisis stemming from amendments to the constitution and the electoral process in the country still persists.
