GURIEL (Mareeg)—Sheik Abdirahman Ma’ow, the governor of Hiraan region in central Somalia who was a member of Hizbul Islam militants have surrendered to Ahlu Sunna Waljama’a Moderate religious group on Sunday, officials said.

 



Abdirahman Ma’ow with some battle wagons and fighters left Beledweyne, the regional capital of Hiraan region, and reached Guriel town in Galgadud region early on Sunday.

 



Sheikh Abdullahi Sheikh Abdirahman Abu Yusuf, a spokesman for Ahlu Sunna Waljama’a, said, Sheikh Ma’ow surrendered to their administration in central Somalia.

 



Abu Yusuf declined to say more about how the former Hiraan governor joined to their administration. There is no word from Sheikh Ma’ow about his arrival in Guriel town.

 



There has been dispute between Hizbul Islam officials in Beledweyne and Sheikh Ma’ow recently.

 



Sheikh Abdirahman Ma’ow ruled Hiraan region under the administration of the Somali government but he later declared that he had no confidence with the Somali government and joined Hizbul Islam about three four months ago.
