The President of the Federal Republic of Somalia, Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, has responded to recent threats and calls from the opposition regarding the 2026 elections and the revision of the country\u2019s constitution.<\/p>\n

Speaking at a campaign event for the Justice and Solidarity Party (JSP) in Mogadishu on Tuesday, the President said the government had officially accepted the opposition\u2019s demand for a national dialogue, which he described as the most important point that emerged from the three-day opposition conference in Kismayo last week.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe took one point from the results of the Kismayo conference, and that is to open a dialogue. The door to dialogue is open, and it is open from the President\u2019s office. The government has officially responded to that request,\u201d said President Hassan Sheikh.<\/p>\n

The statement comes after opposition members of the Somali Future Council issued a statement on Saturday calling on the President to convene all political stakeholders in the country by January 20, 2026, to reach an agreement on an inclusive electoral process.<\/p>\n

The opposition warned that if this does not happen, they will take another political path to prevent a constitutional vacuum and further instability.<\/p>\n

However, the President made it clear that the Federal Government is never against dialogue and agreement, but is clearly opposed to, as he put it, \u201ca politics based on self-promotion and threats.\u201d<\/p>\n

This statement by President Hassan Sheikh reflects an attempt by the government to defuse the growing political tension, with an eye on the future of the 2026 elections and the process of finalizing the country\u2019s constitution.<\/p>\n
