The forces, which had been operating under the Federal Government, were reportedly informed that a new understanding had been reached with Jubaland. Sources also say Jubaland has agreed to take responsibility for paying the salaries of the troops stationed in the area. During his address to the troops, Janan reportedly accused the Federal Government of failing to act in good faith in its dealings with Jubaland. The development comes amid a longstanding dispute between the Federal Government and the Jubaland administration, particularly over the administration of Gedo region and control of security forces deployed there. Jubaland has reportedly agreed to receive the troops into its structures and assume responsibility for their salaries and other entitlements.
