The Office of the Somali Prime Minister has officially announced the postponement of the upcoming National Consultative Council (NCC) meeting, which was originally scheduled for this week.
The NCC meeting, which was convened by President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, will now take place on the May 5.
While the statement did not specify the reasons behind the rescheduling, such high-level gatherings typically address pressing national issues including security, political developments, and federal-state relations.
The postponement suggests the need for further preparation or coordination among key stakeholders.
This council meeting is expected to draw senior government officials, federal member state leaders, and other high-ranking representatives.
The outcome of the NCC talks could have significant implications for Somalia’s governance and political landscape.
