“The issue of Hiran State has not changed. Personally, my position in Hiran State is the same. I have not given up on it, and I will not give up on it. This appointment is not something new.
It has only been legalized. It is the agreement reached between Hawadle community and President Hassan Sheikh. The war against Al-Shabab is not for me. Leaders, turn to the war, and the issue should be brought back together, when the issue of Hiran State is in its own place, it is not my responsibility, the issue is everyone’s responsibility,” said Ali Jeyte Osman.

“The fraternal communities fighting in the Middle Shabelle must be stopped by force if there is no other solution and the government forces stop them by force,” said Jeyte.
However, the appointment of Ali Jeyte has caused a lot of discussion in the past few hours related to the appointed position and the issue of Hiran State administration.
