The speaker of the Galmudug parliament, Dr. Mohamed Nur Ga'al, dismissed fears that there were special seats reserved for candidates.
The speaker said Galmudug citizens can freely compete for seats in both houses of parliament, and said no one has the power to stop it.
The statement from the Speaker of the Galmudug Parliament comes at a time when the President of Galmudug is expected to submit the list of candidates for the upper house which is being watched by many influential politicians in Galmudug.
Galmudug's election security committee yesterday issued an order banning the importation of weapons into Galmudug, following the arrival of politicians and parliamentarians in Dhusamareb.
There are serious fears of political turmoil in the Galmudug elections, as Galmudug is home to many opposition politicians.
Opposition politicians have accused President Qoorqoor of plotting to exclude opposition politicians from the upper house.
