Hargeysa (Somalilandpress)- The opposition party of Somaliland Kulmiye for a third time encouraged it's supporters to come out and demonstrate against Somaliland's House of Elders (Guurti) for extending President Riyaale's term for another 6 months. This demonstration is planning to be held at Kulmiye's main headquarter in Hargeysa.
They will be discussing the current state that the country is in, responsibility and political stand to their supporters. Somaliland's state owned Radio Hargeysa has tonight played a new media clip recorded from the meeting of the Ministry of Interal Affairs that emphasized no demonstration will be allowed. However the citizens of Hargeysa are asking the government to take part in a constitutional demonstration.
While President Riyaale and his administration try to put an end to these demonstrations, Kulmiye is planning to continue with it. On the other hand, Somaliland's police patrol became very tight while many of Hargeysa's main streets are guarded by forces to stay there till tomorrow morning.
Somaliland has not seen anything like this magnatude before, under Somaliland's constitution citizens are allowed to demonstrate. Now the million dollar question is will the government allow the opposition their right's to freedom of speach.
