I am for it if he is able to deliver for the Somali people. The next president needs to do four things in order to spare the people this headache. Complete the constitution, set up the constitutional court, free the south from Al-Shabab, and seek budgetary independence.

It doesn't matter. The responsibility still falls on Farmaajo since he's the head od the state.

I guess any subsequent government can exile whoever they don't like..

The United States notes President Farmaajo’s April 28 commitment to return to the September 17 election agreement and resume talks immediately with Federal Member State leaders. We call on the President and Parliament to act swiftly to annul the April 12 mandate extension bill. We commend Prime Minister Roble and the Federal Member State leaders for rejecting a mandate extension. We urge Somalia’s national and Federal Member State leaders to meet immediately to finalize a consensus-based electoral model and hold parliamentary and presidential elections as soon as possible on the basis of the September 17 agreement. All leaders must set aside their political aspirations and differences for the good of the Somali people and negotiate in good faith without preconditions and with a willingness to compromise. We also call on Somalia’s security forces and all armed groups to stand down and allow political dialogue to resume in an atmosphere free from violence and intimidation. Continuing conflict will only serve to worsen conditions for the people of Somalia. https://www.state.gov/return-to-election-negotiations/

If the rumors are true, this is ill-advised and unnecessary.

...unless they are invited by the beesha lixaad.

Everyone will be under pressure. Farmaajo and his friends are better off sticking together. They can't trust an opposition that doesn't trust each other. There's already a wedge between Sharif and Hasan Sheekh.

Only if Muse, the menace, is gone and our Galbeedi is the mayor.

Journalism is dead.

I think they are all on it.

Hubtaa ninyahow? Others are not so sure. I can't believe this guy gets paid for being an analyst.

It looks like the government wants an accelerated election. Let's ser how the opposition react to that.

We will see.

That's nonsense. The whole point of negotiations is to come to reasonable agreement, not one party to demand everything and not accept anything.

He will accept election but no more shenanigans and unreasonable demands from Madoobe, Deni, and Mogadishu cartel.

We did! But I don't think this is the same. We will find out soon.
