“Puntland Government warns strongly against the renewal of political infighting amongst the Federal Institutions of Somalia, as a group of MPs is attempting to bring a motion against Somali Prime Minister H.E. Abdi Farah Shirdon after only seven months in public office.” the statement dated on 12th May, 2013 said.
“This attempt wastes time, resources, and the joint efforts Somali stakeholders and international partners invested in bringing forth the new Federal Institutions of Somalia.” the statement added.
The president of Puntland also in his statement urged the Federal Institutions of Somalia to focus on primary national tasks, such as managing the monetary crisis in the country, resolving the issue of tampering with the Provisional Federal Constitution, working diligently to strengthen law and order in war-affected areas, and supporting for the formation of the remaining Federated States.
