Members of the northern regional committee boycott tomorrow's election

 A faction of the Somaliland Electoral Commission has refused to participate in tomorrow's election announced by the office of Prime Minister Roble, which is scheduled to take place at the Aficio Tent.

The election was to be held for 11 members of the commission to elect their leaders, but the commission split into two factions.

Members who refuse to run in the by-elections scheduled for tomorrow are the four nominated by Speaker of the Upper House Abdi Hashi, who leads one of the two factions that have split from northern politicians.

The four members of the commission, led by Abdi Hashi, have made it a condition of their participation in tomorrow's election that they can run for office in one of two ways.

1 - 8 members to vote for the presidency and Roble's nominees do not participate in the election.

2 - And to negotiate and reach an external agreement to resolve the dispute before the election.
