Statement by SRSG Mahiga on Parliament’s decision to extend its mandate

Nairobi, 04 February 2011 – I have noted the decision by the Transitional Federal Parliament (TFP) to extend their mandate by three years. This is a disappointing decision taken in haste without the required level of discussion and consultation on how to end the transition and on the next political dispensation after 20 August 2011.
