"Recent elections in Jubaland, South West State, and Galmudug had their flaws, but we are encouraged that many candidates refrained from violence and demonstrated commitment to a peaceful, negotiated reconciliation process. We are troubled that some electoral models for 2020 and 2021 under consideration are not practical, they could exclude key communities, or they might provide a pretext for delaying the elections. We urge the Federal Government and Member States to work together to keep elections on track this year and agree on a practical model for peaceful, timely, inclusive, and credible elections"
"The deployment of SNA troops to a politically motivated offensive in the Gedo region of Jubaland is unacceptable and diverts resources from the agreed roadmap for security operations. It is imperative that Federal Government and Federal Members States security services focus on combatting al-Shabaab, rather than engaging in armed conflict with each other to resolve political disputes. We call on President Farmaajo to end the Somali National Army offensive in Gedo, and for President Farmaajo and Jubaland President Madobe to each commit to dialogue and reconciliation"
James Swan also rejected extension
"In recent years Somalia has established a track record of regular, peaceful transfers of power. This commendable achievement must now be preserved in 2020. In addition, a move to one-person-one vote elections will mean a shift from the elders-based selection of recent political cycles to direct voting by the people of Somalia."
this what my friend inform me wich i posted here on 15 february. where is our delusional resident with the longest comments

Long live the king. i can say next HAG president will not bother about him.
these r excerptions i took it from my well informed friend on many current issues.
he said about JL "Yamamoto told Farmaajo to take his forces from Gedo and stop inciting violence in the region. Yamamoto told Farmaajo that Alshabaab is attacking USA bases in Kenya and USA want to focus fighting Alshabaab particularly those in Jubland who have attacked their base in Kenya. He told Farmaajo that they don't want any new violence and tribal fightings in the region. Yamamoto recognized Ahmed Madobe as Jubaland's president.
