DJIBOUTI (GO) – Djibouti’s Finance Minister, Ilyaas Dawaleh, has vehemently responded to serious allegations recently leveled by the former head of the Somali National Intelligence Agency, Fahad Yaasiin, against Djibouti President Ismaaciil Cumar Geelle.

Dawaleh stated, “President Geelle has caused psychological distress to Fahad and his group, leading them to seize every opportunity to slander President Geelle.
