Mohamed Omar Hagafey, spokesman for Hemin and Heb told the local media the conference is not about to solve the problem but aimed to raise fund. He accused the attendees to be brokers.

Hemin and Heb is not among the regional administrations that were invited in the meeting sponsored by the United Nations office for Somalia.

"All those who gathered in Mogadishu are selfish; they don’t represent the Somali people. We are not willing to participate it.”  Hag fey said.

The conference was yesterday opened in Mogadishu under tight security by the African peacekeeping troops as delegates from the United Nations, Somali government, Puntland, Gal-mudbug and Haul Sunni Walajama attended.

Earlier, the traditional elders of Hawiye tribe called the current meeting as unwanted and can bring no solution to the internal diversities.
