Popular rejection of the amendments to conduct elections

 Somali clerics first addressed the electoral procedures promulgated by the National Consultative Council, sparking further political controversy. The tribal elders reject the decisions that are taken that are not in the interest of the people and do not guarantee them fair elections, and we should not call them amendments, but rather they sabotage the elections or create new chaos.

"It is unfortunate and appalling that, in violation of state laws and regulations, there are attempts to discredit the role of registrars and convince them that they can be overcome today," a statement by traditional elders said. And they objected to four issues in these amendments, and they must be followed so that Farmajo would not be elected only in this election, which has become a scourge because of attempts to thwart it.

All the amendments they ask for will make the people object to its false results, which resulted from events that guarantee the victory of Farmajo only, and the days of the civil war will return again, and bloodshed will increase due to fraud and lack of credibility of the results.
