Somaliland Presidential Election in 2024: External and Internal Challenges.

Overview:
The presidential election is a significant event in Somaliland’s political landscape, drawing substantial public
attention and often creating societal tension. In Somali society, the leader holds considerable authority and
influence over the community. This historical mentality places extraordinary pressure on presidential
elections, making any delay likely to generate widespread social unrest and division. Unlike other elections
that may be postponed with limited public response, postponing the presidential election has a much
greater impact.
