Djibouti’s gov’t denies allegations of interference in Somali affairs amid escalating feud between president and PM.
Somalia’s President Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed has accused Djibouti of unlawfully detaining his national security adviser, a key player in his spiralling feud with Prime Minister Mohamed Hussein Roble.
The office of Mohamed, who is popularly known as Farmaajo, alleged in a statement on Friday that Djibouti had unlawfully detained Fahad Yasin and other Somali officials at the country’s main international airport, preventing them from travelling to Somalia’s capital, Mogadishu.
“We ask the Djiboutian government to ease … their trip, while it will be fully responsible for any threat to their personal safety. We are very much disappointed with the blunt intervention,” it added.
