Leading traditional elders in Hiran region in central Somalia called on Governor Waare to leave office after making vicious criticism against Somali Federal government this week.
The call comes amid a standoff between the Somali central government and the Federal Member States, whose leaders have recently announced they have suspended relations in Official Somali Federal government.

After their decision, Somali president Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed call for a meeting in Mogadishu on 17th and 18th of this month, to discuss the current situation in the country.
