Rooble says no particular candidate will be accepted to obstruct elections

Somalia Prime minister Mohamed Hussein Roble has denounced the latest statement issued by Villa Somalia and said that no particular candidate will be permitted to influence or obstruct the ongoing elections in Somalia.

Rooble denied President Farmajo’s statement that he has failed to manage and lead elections, maintains he is responsible for implementing the election, and says the President’s late night statement is “Ill- motive’ intended to deliberately scuttle the election process.

The Prime minister said the statement from Villa Somalia was “a planned statement” intended to influence the ongoing efforts to expedite the election process and the expected consultative meeting called by the Prime minister.

He accused the President of being willing to direct the election process on his way and not to give consideration to his opponents. Late last night, Somalia President Mohamed Abdullahi Farmajo had accused his Prime minister Mohamed Hussein Rooble of failing to lead elections. calls for a consultative meeting to “course-correct” the election and to agree on a leadership capable of implementing inclusive, transparent election.
