Why is President Farmaajo Winning the Election?

[Deeq A.]

The main reason Farmaajo is favored to win the upcoming elections is due to the overwhelming support of millions of Somalis abroad and at home, including ethnic Somalis living under the neighboring States of Ethiopia, Kenya, and Djibouti. This support isn’t based on tribal affiliation or fear but of the President and the ideals he stood for during his first term: patriotism & devotion for his country and its people. According to election observers with 3/4 of the Parliamentarians already selected, the President enjoys the solid lead through the support of 140 MPs. Meanwhile in Garbaharey, PM Roble and Madoobe are still scrambling to appoint their MPs and alter the election rules but it may already be too late. The elections will conclude by the end of April at the earliest with a prediction of an overwhelming majority vote that re-elects the President for a second term.
