Shabelle: SOMALIA
ELBERDE (Sh. M. Network) - the Ethiopian troops who reached in Elberde
town in Bakol region yesterday have returned back from it after having
talks with the elders in the town, witnesses told Shabelle radio.
Reports say that the Ethiopian troops with officials poured in parts of
Bakol region and had met with the elders and people of the Elberde town
for several hors and lately went back from it.
It is unclear why the Ethiopian troops arrived there yesterday. But some
reports say that they came the town to meet and talk to the people and
elders of the town and it is not known what the Ethiopian troops and
elders discussed so far.
We contacted to the elders who met with the Ethiopian troops and asked
some thing about the meeting but they declined to comment on it.
How ever, it is not the first time the Ethiopian troops come in parts of
Bakol region in Southern Somalia and talk to elders and people.
But the step comes as the former administration of transitional
government in Bakol region is away from there.
