The forum’s statement condemned the fighting and accused the outgoing president of not giving priority to the army. It is also clear that he has deployed most of his troops to Mogadishu to suppress dissenting politicians. “Many troops, weapons and other anti-terrorism equipment have been transferred to Gedo region, fueling civil strife in the area, which has resulted in much bloodshed.”
