MOGADISHU (Somaliguardian) – In a dramatic break from President Muse Bihi Abdi, Somaliland’s Vice President Abdirahman Saylici on Sunday publicly pledged his support for Waddani party presidential candidate Abdirahman Mohamed Abdillahi Irro.
“Muse Bihi cannot be trusted with the nation; I was once his closest ally, yet he has reneged on the commitments we swore to uphold,” said Vice President Abdirahman Saylici.
“I call on the people of Somaliland to rally behind the transformative movement spearheaded by the Waddani party and its presidential candidate, Abdirahman Irro,” he added.
Saylici’s bold move, after 14 years as vice president, strikes a decisive blow to President Muse Bihi, who now faces a united front of political elites, widespread public discontent, and growing opposition just days before the upcoming elections.
