In a press statement, Farmaajo said that the current situation can only be resolved through a national consultation involving political leaders, intellectuals, and various segments of Somali society, in order to address the rescue of the country and manage the prevailing political uncertainty.

Farmaajo noted that, in accordance with Article 103 of the Provisional Constitution, the current government has become a caretaker administration and therefore lacks the authority to make critical decisions that could affect the country’s future.

He emphasized the importance of reaching a mutually agreed political settlement that would pave the way for legitimate national elections.

The former president also called on the Somali Armed Forces to avoid involvement in political affairs or being used for the suppression of citizens and the extension of political terms.

He urged them instead to focus on their constitutional duties of maintaining security, defending the country, and safeguarding national unity.

Finally, Farmaajo appealed for political compromise and for national interest to be prioritized over personal or factional interests, in order to preserve Somalia’s statehood and governance.
