from the office came after failing to diplomatically solving the deep rooted
conflict within Al-Shabaab administration.
Fuad Shangole, who had last week been talking to the local media about
the conflict the Al-Shabaab leader, said a person (Ahmed Godane) who hid his
face with mask because of fear could not claim to be the leader of Mujahideens
