President makes fresh efforts to unite Somali leaders

Djiboutian President Ismael Omar Gelleh is making fresh efforts to unite Somali leaders and consult with them on his peace proposal for Somalia, the Somali ‘Qaran’ newspaper reported on Wednesday. It said Gelleh was consulting with scholars, clan elders, opinion leaders and politicians on the “way forward” for his recent peace proposal. The paper added that a delegation from the Habar Gedir clan was already in Djibouti, and that those from the Puntland administration and Somaliland were also expected in the country in the next few days.
