Galkao (Sunatimes) The commissioner of Galkayo district of Puntalnd administration has announced his resignation from the position this morning.

The former Galkayo commissioner told the media that he presented his resignation letter to President Abdirahman Farole and Puntland’s internal security minister.

Abdirahman Mohamud Hajji was elected to the position of Galkayo commissioner by the district security committee in 2009.
