So far the selection of the 57 seats already filled has been smooth, well
organised and credible. We are also pleased with the level of support that
we have received from our partners, UNSOM (United Nations Assistance
Mission in Somalia) and AMISOM (African Union Mission in Somalia) who
have provided security at the electoral stations especially the police
officers stationed at the polling stations. We hope to see the fruits of our
efforts in the next few days, about 3 to 4 days, which we hope to complete
the electoral process for the 69 seats allocated to ISWA (Interim South
