This year marks the end of the political party licenses for the three political parties in Somaliland which are KULIMIYE, UCID & WADANI.
There is currently a constitutional crisis as to what which elections should come first which is either the presidential or political party elections.
Today marks the start of the political party elections in which all the committee members overseeing this process have been approved by the parliament.
The process will take at most 6 months which will end in a nationwide vote for approved political parties.
The previous two political party elections were held as local elections. However, this can't happen again as the local elections were held last in May 2021 and instead the court has ruled that the political party elections will be held as it's own stand-alone elections.
