Garowe, Somalia, May 22, 2010 (SL Times) – Garowe on line reported this week that the former arch warlord Abdillahi Yusuf who is now living as a refugee in Yemen is interfering in Puntland politics and “is engaged in an active campaign to ‘incite the Puntland public’ against the current administration, under President Abdirahman Mohammed ‘Farole.’” Garowe online attributed its report to reliable sources in Yemen. The publication pointed out that Abdillahi Yusuf’s meddling in the affairs of Puntland may constitute a violation of the terms of his asylum.
Puntland has been in turmoil for some time and has suffered from a relentless wave of assassinations, bombings and piracy. Recently a number of tribal chiefs were so alarmed by the deteriorating situation, they issued a call for a meeting to discuss the serious issues facing Puntland.
