The Somali Council of Ministers has approved the Law on Elections and the Law on Parties
Aug 08 (Jowhar.com) – The Prime Minister of the Somali government, Hamze Abdi Barre, today chaired the meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers, which was closely watched.
The Cabinet of Ministers approved the Elections Law and the Party Law, which is the beginning of President Hassan Sheikh’s project for the election of People and Votes.
This legislation is expected to be presented to the House of Representatives for debate, and there is a question mark on the process of approval, as the opposition is strongly opposed to the presidential election plan.
The opposition argues that the proposed laws do not guarantee a fair and transparent election process, and they have raised concerns about potential government interference in the electoral process. Despite this opposition, President Hassan Sheikh remains determined to move forward with his election plan and is confident that the laws will be approved by the House of Representatives.
The approval of the Elections Law and Party Law marks a significant step towards the upcoming presidential election in Somalia. The government hopes that these laws will help ensure a smooth and democratic election process, and pave the way for a peaceful transfer of power.
As the debate over the election laws continues, all eyes are on the House of Representatives to see how they will respond to the government’s proposals. The coming days and weeks will be crucial in determining the future of Somalia’s political landscape.
