Newly Appointed Somali PM Resigns, President Says He Will Follow

Less than two weeks after being appointed Prime Minister of Somalia Mohamed Mahamud Guled has announced he will resign from the position. Guled had replaced Nur Hassan Hussein after he was dismissed by President Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed following continued disagreements concerning a peace deal with Islamist militants.

Ahmed’s appointment of Guled was seen as illegal by Somali MPs and the move was heavily criticized by other African leaders who have since imposed sanctions on the president and declared their support for Hussein.

Guled explained that he chose to resign “so that I am not seen as a stumbling block to the peace process which is going well now.” In notifying parliament of his decision Guled said he wanted the government to remain intact and wanted the differences that exist to be worked out.

Shortly after Guled made his announcement Ahmed made a similar announcement, saying he would hand in his resignation on Saturday.
