By ABDULKADIR KHALIF More by this AuthorSomalia’s national intelligence service says President Mohamed Abdullahi Farmaajo and Prime Minister Mohamed Hussein Roble face an imminent threat from Al-Shabaab militants. The alert on Tuesday from the National Intelligence and Security Agency (NISA) came as the country haggled over parliamentary elections that have dragged on for more than a year. Ahmed said that NISA’s move to make public the name of an Al-Shabaab operative targeting Somalia’s top leaders proved that the spy agency and the jihadist group have links with each other. “It is lamentable that our spy agency that is assigned to ensure our protection is promoting a notorious terrorist group that exists to frighten our nation,” he said on his Facebook page. Neither the prime minister nor the president had officially reacted to the NISA alert by Tuesday.
