The recent decision by the Puntland Regional Parliament to extend its term by one year is illegal.
Puntland Constitutional Court declared the term extension an illegality that has no basis in law.
The court pronounced itself on this matter on Sunday.
The annulment is likely to have huge ramifications on Puntland’s political and electoral landscape.
Primarily, parliamentarians are now likely to prepare for elections on January 8, 2024, as previously announced.
