All Somalis have the right to express their political views, Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud said Wednesday (May 7th), responding to lawmakers' calls for his resignation.

"I respect the views of every Somali, whether a politician or a civilian," Mohamud told reporters at Mogadishu's Aden Adde International Airport upon his return from an official visit to the United Arab Emirates according to Radio Mogadishu. "Let the views be expressed at a proper place. I will welcome everyone who has an opinion that will help us build Somalia."

Mohamud added that he was willing to engage in dialogue with his critics.

On Monday,  133 lawmakers signed a statement listing 14 perceived failures of Mohamud's administration, calling for him to step down or face a vote of no confidence.
