Heavy rains delay homecoming party for abducted Mandera chiefs

The ongoing rains in the southern parts of Somalia, especially within the Gedow region, have dampened the much-awaited welcome party for the five chiefs released after more than 60 days in captivity.

Residents of Wargadud, a township along the Elwak-Rhamu-Mandera road, have been waiting with bated breath to receive back the five administrators.
