   SOMALILAND ELECTIONS:

   Opposition candidate Abdirahman Mohamed Abdullahi of the Wadani party has won the election, sealing 64% of the vote, ending current President Muse Bihi's hopes of extending his near 7 year Presidency. Abdullahi will become Somaliland's 6th President.

   The unrecognized breakaway republic, which regularly organizes free and peaceful elections, has also had election induced changes of government, a rarity across Africa and non existent in the Horn.
