Mogadishu (HOL) - A delegation led by the leader of the SCC administration, Abdiqadir Ahmed Awcali Firdhiye, arrived in Mogadishu on Friday to meet with federal government leaders and UN agencies.
Prime Minister Hamse Abdi Barre invited the leader and his administration members to Mogadishu to discuss the latest developments in Sool, Sanag, and Ayn, collectively known as SCC-Khatumo.
Mr. Abdiqadir Firdhiye is scheduled to hold other meetings with the international community, especially United Nations agencies and donors in Mogadishu. According to reports, the discussions will center around how development projects and humanitarian aid will be handed over to the newly elected SCC-Khatumo administration leaders.
A month ago, SCC-Khatumo forces ousted the Somaliland army from the SCC-Khatumo areas following over eight months of conflict between the two sides.
Somaliland President Muse Bihi Abdi, speaking a day after the SCC forces seized Somaliland's main base, Gojacade, outside Las Anod, admitted that his forces had suffered their biggest setback during the eight months of conflict in the vicinity of Las Anod town.
