HARGEISA, (Somalilandpress) – The Vice-Chairman of the Somaliland’s House of Elders, Sh. Ahmed Sh. Nuh resigned from his post after submitting his letter of resignation during yesterday’s parliamentary session.

The reason behind the resignation is not clear, however when number of reporters try to question the outgoing elderly, he was reluctant to answer any questions. He insisted the press should direct their questions at the Chairman but the Chairman, Mr Suleiman  said he cannot give any details at the moment but he plans to discuss the issue with the members of the House.

The House of Elders locally known as Gurti, is Somaliland’s own version of Upper house of government.
