Electoral Dispute Resolution Committee Approves Election of Ex-NISA Director

Somalia’s Electoral Dispute Resolution Committee has approved the election of a former Director of the National Intelligence and Security Agency (NISA).

The dispute resolution committee approved the results on February 23.

Fahad Yasin, a former NISA Director, emerged victorious in elections held on Sunday for the HOP#086 seat in HirShabelle.

The nod of approval is a huge reprieve to Yasin.

A day after the polls, the Federal Elections Implementation Team (FEIT) stated its disapproval of the results for the HOP#086 seat.

Similarly, the dispute resolution committee also gave its seal of approval to five other House of the People (Lower House) seats.
