President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud has promised nationwide elections in 2026.
Mohamud was speaking on Thursday, May 26 in Mogadishu.
During his speech, President Mohamud asked the people of Somalia to support his administration in this.
In his speech, he also assured Somalis that the country would not elect the new President in a tent.
Mohamud spoke about the May 15 presidential elections that took place at the Afisyoni tent next to the Aden Adde International Airport.
Initially, Somalia was to hold one-person-one-vote elections involving all eligible voters in the country.
Eventually, the country had to settle on parliamentarians electing the new president.
A few delegates were also responsible for electing parliamentarians for the House of the People (Lower House) and Senate (Upper House).
