By BRUHAN MAKONGMore by this AuthorElders from Wajir South sub-county have backed Governor Ahmed Abdullahi's re-election bid. Wajir South is the largest constituency in Wajir. The elders endorsed Governor Abdullahi during campaign rallies spanning three days held in Diff, Dadajabula, Burdeer and Kursi towns that lie along Kenya/Somalia border. Governor Abdullahi, who hails from the majority Degodia clan in Wajir, declared he will seek individual sub-clan support instead of the clan-based "negotiated" democracy. Wajir South elders lauded the county chief's style of "non-interference" in the politics of all sub-counties and his development track record.
