Djibouti,
June 27, 2009 (SL Times) – The Chairman of Djibouti’s opposition party (DPD),
Mr Muhammad Daud Shihm strongly objected to what he called interference
by Somaliland government ministers in Djibouti’s politics. Mr Shihm was
referring to a statement recently made by Somaliland Minister of
Aviation, Ali Muhammad Waran Adde in which he urged Somalilanders to
emulate Djibouti and change the constitution so that President Dahir
Rayale Kahin could run for a third term, the same way that Djibouti had
changed its constitution so that President Ismail Omar Gelleh could run
for president.
Mr Shihm explained that given the fact that Mr Waran Adde travels quite
frequently to Djibouti, he should know about the situation of the people
of Djibouti who now live in conditions not different from that of
Somalilanders when they were under Siyad Barre’s dictatorship.
Mr Shihm added that he does not want Somaliland’s people to be given the
wrong information about what is going on in Djibouti.
