Former Somaliland Electoral Commission Chairman Abdirashid Riyorac resigned from the commission.
Many pundits suggest it is a coordinated effort to pull down the country’s electoral process by Muse Bihi’s government.
The move is seen as a last effort by the government to disrupt the electoral process and postpone the November 2022 presidential election.
Riyorac, who was previously rejected by the opposition, led the successful local and parliamentary elections last year.
The former chairman of the Somaliland Electoral Commission has been voted out from his post with the committee electing a new chairperson.
Opposition and government are in a deep political crisis due to President Bihi’s attempt to scrap the country’s revered electoral process.
