The opposition in Puntland has issued a press release, leveling serious accusations against President Said Deni. The opposition alleges that President Deni is intentionally inciting a new conflict to prolong his stay in office. According to their statement, President Deni held a meeting with Puntland military officials, instructing them to defend his desire for an extension of his term, a move that the opposition warns could have detrimental consequences for the region.<\/p>\n
Opposition politicians, in their press release, called upon the military and their commanders to uphold the rule of law, emphasizing their commitment to preventing Puntland from descending into chaos and destruction.<\/p>\n
President Deni, on the other hand, stated just a day ago that he remains dedicated to ensuring that the people have the opportunity to vote in the upcoming election. He urged the military to protect the electoral process and stressed that no one possesses the authority to obstruct the implementation of the Electoral Commission’s decision, which schedules the elections for February 25, 2024.<\/p>\n
This escalating electoral dispute between President Deni and the opposition has raised concerns about a potential political crisis, with no clear mediator in sight. Meanwhile, a meeting held in Garowe has yet to yield any official news on the matter. The lingering divisions within Puntland’s political landscape pose a significant obstacle to finding a resolution to the election dispute.<\/p>\n
