Mogadishu (RBC) Somali lawmakers are today on Tuesday voting for a fresh motion which bans the return of the former ministers into the new council of ministers, RBC Radio reports.
The controversial motion was officially tabled on Sunday after nearly a hundred parliamentarian signed. It says that no single member of the country’s former minister of the ousted government will return to the new cabinet.
The security was extremely tightened in the parliament building and nearby roads on Tuesday morning as the Members of the country’s Federal Parliament started registering to enter the parliament hall.
Debate on the new motion heated up on Sunday as fifty more lawmakers expressed their views on the motion.
If voted in favor for the motion, it will be the first time Somali Parliament passes a law banning any member of a former cabinet to return to the new government as the motion describes specifically the former government of Prime Minister Abdi Farah Shirdon which was ousted in a parliamentary vote of “no confidence’ in early December.
