Jamal Ali Hussein Emerges Winner Of UDUB Party’s 2015 Presidential Candidacy

Hargeysa, Somaliland, December 31, 2011 (SL Times) – Jamal Ali Hussein, A Harvard educated banker, has emerged as the winner of UDUB party’s 2015 presidential candidacy.
His closest front runners for the candidacy were former Aviation minister Ali Waran-Adde and ex-foreign minister, Abdillahi Mohamed Dualle.
On December 13, 2011, the opposition UDUB party had announced that members who wanted to run as president had to pay $10,000 each for registration and $280,000 as a deposit which could be refunded only for the contenders who were eliminated for failing to meet a set of party criteria governing the selection process.
Both Waran-Ade and Dualle lost the nomination as they were unable to raise the necessary deposit before the deadline which expired on December 27, 2011.
