Dhusamareb (HOL) - Galmudug President Ahmed Abdi Kariye Qorqor announced that he will present evidence exposing those responsible for instigating the recent conflict in North Galgaduud, which resulted in nearly 100 deaths. His statement follows a meeting held Wednesday afternoon with elders from the Marehan and Dir clans, who were involved in the deadly clash last Saturday.
Qorqor emphasized the need for a peaceful resolution to the conflict in Dhusamareb, the capital of Galmudug. He urged both sides to collaborate for lasting peace and to prevent future violence. He called for unity and strength in addressing the disputes and problems that have occurred.
"We need to prepare for our decision and ensure peace can be established. Peace has many enemies, and each side needs to be strong and committed. If God wills, we will fully address the disputes and problems that have occurred," said President Qorqor.
The President noted that the war was not accidental but orchestrated by politicians seeking political gain. He criticized those who took advantage of the situation for their interests.
"We all know what happened. It was not a random event but a planned opportunity pursued for political interests. Those who expressed their opinions in this manner need to be cautious and seek God's protection," said Qorqor.
Qorqor emphasized the tragedy of Somali lives lost, revealing that security agencies have gathered evidence linking those who started and fueled the conflict. He promised to present the evidence at the appropriate time.
"The investigative agencies have collected all relevant information. Many pieces of evidence are with those who orchestrated, fueled, and financed the conflict. God willing, this evidence is preserved, and we will present it at the right time. The security agencies will act, and no one will be left behind," said Qorqor.
Qorqor's announcement comes as the region experiences a resurgence of clan wars among communities vying for grazing land ownership.
