The Secretary General of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) Prof. Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu has strongly condemned the suicide bombing in Somalia which claimed the lives of twenty innocent people, including Somali National Security Minister Omar Hashi Aden. Prof. Ihsanoglu, who described this criminal act as unislamic and cowardly, called for the immediate end to such violence which continues to complicate the dire humanitarian situation in Somalia and undermine the stability of the new internationally recognized Transitional Federal Government (TFG). The Secretary General then extended his heartfelt condolences to families of the victims and to the TFG for the sad loss.
