He further stressed on the importance of the ongoing change for peace and reconciliation in the east, which is stabilizing the hitherto volatile areas. He also paid tribute to the elders from East Sanaag region who are currently in Hargeisa to finalize peace arrangements with the government.

In Conclusion to his chat with the Hornnewspaper Sultan Mohamed Sultan Abdiqadir asked the government not to bask in success of reconciliations but continue to consult traditional elders and elders who are the main architects of stability in the country.
