Somalias Prime Minister Mohamed Hussein Roble and President Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed have a longstanding dispute over the long-delayed elections.

There are constant fears that their squabbling could erupt into violence amid a split in the countrys security forces. The following remarks by Prime Minister Roble are indicative of divided loyalties within the countrys security forces.

This week we are focusing Somalias protracted political crisis that is threatening to derail efforts to restore stability in this war-torn Horn of Africa nation. We are asking, are foreign powers with vested interests fomenting the political crisis in Somalia?

The second part of our show will be about revelations that Belgium was involved in the assassination of Burundi independence hero and Prime Minister Prince Louis Rwagasore sixty years ago.
