Somalia has expelled the Kenyan Ambassador, Retired Major General Lucas Tambo to Mogadishu, and has recalled its own diplomat from Nairobi over alleged intrusion in their upcoming elections.

The announcement was made by the Somali Government, which reported that Kenya was persistently meddling in their affairs.

Somalia Foreign Affairs Permanent Secretary Ambassador Mohamed Ali-Nur Haji stated that this interference could impede the political stability and security of the country.

“Somalia expresses its regret in the government of Kenya’s overt and blatant interferences in the internal and political affairs of the Federal Republic of Somalia which has the potential to be a hindrance to the stability, security and development of the entire region,” Nur Haji stated.

He added that despite the desire to maintain good ties with neighboring countries, the actions of the Kenyan government could no longer be tolerated.

“The Federal Government of Somalia believes that the Kenyan Government actions are not in line with the internationally recognized diplomatic relations enjoyed by sovereign States,” he stated.
