The Council of Ministers in the Somali regional state of Galmudug have issued a number of new orders on security and reconciliation.
A statement from Chief Minister Sheikh Shakir, who doubles as the leader of the moderate Islamist group Ahlu Sunnah Wal Jama’ah, expressed concern about the faltering Galmudug reconciliation process.
“The Council of Ministers have agreed… to reassess the reconciliation process and ensure the Galmudug administration is part of the process,” the statement said.
The ministers also raised concerns about the recent Al-Shabaab attempts to influence electoral delegates in the region.
The statement termed the Al-Shabaab effort an attempt to infiltrate the upcoming Galmudug administration, adding that this should not be allowed.
“All evil acts by Al-Shabaab must be prevented, especially its attempt to have own agents in the new Galmudug administration.”
The ministers also rejected suggestions that African Union peacekeepers may be deployed in Dusamareb, saying current security measures were sufficient.
“The joint police and intelligence force currently maintaining security of Dusamareb is capable of ensuring security. There is no need for Amisom [African Union Mission in Somalia] forces,” says the statement
