Overview

Garad Salebaan was a prominent and influential traditional leader. [2] He was a founding figure of Puntland in 1998, [3] and also of Khaatumo in 2012 after becoming disillusioned with the administration in Puntland. He has since returned to Puntland as a staunch ally of the regime. He has consistently remained opposed to Somaliland's presence in the Dhulbahante inhabited regions of Sool, Sanaag and Cayn. [4] [5] He has described the Puntland process of choosing legislators as corrupt, and that the Puntland administration regularly rescinds officials chosen by him. [6]
