According to the habargedir interior minister of Mogadishu,
How exactly was the conference in Kismaayo unconstitutional? Does anyone know?The federal government has earlier made clear its position towards the Kismayo conference and I am now replicating it -- the government will not recognise the outcome of the Kismayo conference," he said, according to Somalia's RBC Radio. "Despite [the fact that] the meeting was organised by Somali citizens, the conference still lacks legitimacy and is against the country's constitution."
