for about a week since the consultative committee reached an agreement over the delayed election, the opposition planned to hold what they call a peaceful demonstration against president farmajo, but the political allies of the president including Benadir regional officials denounced the event, citing security threats and the organizers not having an official permit to a held demonstration from the regional administration.
The opposition parties, however, disregarded the call and vowed to hold the strike Thursday this week.
Speaking after a meeting on security, the Deputy Mayor of the Benadir Region Mr. Ali Yare Ali said they will forcibly disperse any demonstrators marching found in the capital.
on the other side, the former defense minister of Galmudug state Ahmed fiqi who is leading the strike denied the statement of the chairman claiming they have a permit from the ministry of security
