In a significant political shift, three members of the Boorama local council have officially resigned from the KULMIYE Party, marking a complete withdrawal of the party’s representation in the district.
The councilors—MP Mohamed Diriye, MP Ahmed Khayre, and MP Ali Balag—announced their decision to join the Waddani National Party, reflecting a growing dissatisfaction with the ruling party’s policies and direction.
This resignation leaves the KULMIYE Party without any local councilors in Boorama, underscoring the challenges it faces in maintaining its political influence in the region.
The move to the Waddani National Party is seen as a response to the need for more effective representation and alignment with community interests.
As political dynamics continue to evolve in Somaliland, the implications of this shift for both the KULMIYE Party and the Waddani National Party will be closely monitored in the lead-up to future.
Elsewhere, Hassan Shahar, who was one of the closest members of the KULMIYE candidate, and the President of Somaliland Muse Bihi said the main reasons for his decision to join Waddani was the desire for change and effective representation.
Shahar’s move to Waddani is seen as a major boos for the party candidate Abdirahman Irro, who has positioned himself as the frontrunner in the presidential elections set for November 13 .
This move not only highlights Shahar’s change in political alliances but also reflects the growing political dynamics within Somaliland’s political arena as parties adapt to the changing needs of the electorate.
As the political climate continues to evolve, Shahar’s new role in the Wadani National Party will be closely watched, especially in terms of his potential impact on voter sentiment and the party’s strategy moving forward.
