Five members of the Northeastern Parliament have officially announced their resignation from parliament, saying they have also renounced the political ideology that was the basis for the establishment of the administration.
MP Makhtal Said Mohamud, who spoke on behalf of the resigning MPs, told Bakayle Media that their decision is final, and was made by him, MP Ahmed Ali Mohamed, MP Saadiq Jama Muse, MP Ahmed Aabi Hassan and MP Abdisalan Abdilaahi Amo.
“Speaking on my own behalf and their behalf, I declare that we have fully resigned from the Northeastern Parliament. This decision is final,” said Makhtal.
He said that the main reason for their resignation was that, as he put it, they had deviated from the mission for which the administration was established.
“The reason we established the administration was to provide services and government processes that benefit the community, but it has become an administration below the level of a government agency. The administration has fallen into the hands of Firdhiye and Abwaanka, and the community is treated as they wish,” he said.
Makhtal added that the resigned MPs plan to announce today the new political direction they will take and the city they will base themselves in.
This resignation comes after Fahiima Yusuf Quuje, who was a former member of the Northeastern Parliament, recently resigned from her position and returned to Hargeisa.
Thus, the number of MPs who left the Northeastern Parliament has now reached six.
