This week, Somalia was on the precipice of war after President Mohamed Abdullahi Farmaajo attempted to suspend Prime Minister Mohamed Hussein Roble.
The Head of AUC has urged political leaders in Somalia to “exercise restraint.”
He also addressed Farmaajo and Roble.
Mahamat urged the two senior-most leaders of the Somali government to resolve their political differences to allow calm to return to the country.
