Currently there is no description available for Matt Bryden.
“Somalia has been in a constitutional crisis since February when the president's mandate expired. The country has been held together by a political agreement between stakeholders of the federal government, federal member states and stakeholders in the elections. That was supposed to postpone the elections until today, December 27. That has not happened and that is why we are facing this crisis. The prime minister [Mohamed Hussein Roble] was planning to convene a national conference today to chart the way forward. Now the president [Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed] has once again intervened and created a situation of real uncertainty and danger. The electoral model was modified by Farmaajo [Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed] to favour his reelection and this change is now contributing to the impasse in the electoral process. The entire process has come down almost to cherry picking, where seat by seat we are seeing rigging, we are seeing appointees of the president being given seats, and these are the people who will choose the next president.”
