Hundreds of people, even thousands according to some sources, took the streets today in Mogadishu and displaced camps that separate the capital from nearby Afgoye in support of Prime Minster Nur Hassan Hussein (Nur Adde), fired by President Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed. The demonstrations come amid a standoff between the President - who in the meantime named Mohamed Mohamud Gulied Ga'ma dhere prime minister - and the parliament that instead renewed its confidence in Nur Adde; both accused the other of violating the Constitution. The controversy, given to the presence of two premiers, will have to be resolved one way or the other to avoid it jeopardising the peace process begun in Djibouti with the Alliance for the Re-liberation of Somalia (ARS). Local sources told MISNA that the demonstrators, especially in the camps, consider the prime minister appointed by the President an obstacle to peace and contest the choice of a man that in quality of Interior minister under the government of Ali Mohamed Gedi introduced policies objected by the displaced. Also the Kenyan government yesterday announced sanctions against Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed and his family, freezing his assets and imposing a travel ban. While the political battle continues and discussions proceed between the opposition and Baidoa-based government headed by Nur Adde for the formation of a coalition government, an armed confrontation on the streets of Mogadishu between insurgents and AMISOM peacekeepers (African Union mission in Somalia) left 13 wounded; further south, in Afgoye, an Ethiopian military truck was targeted by insurgents, but the toll is unknown.
