(Sh.M.Network)-- Somali official has narrowly escaped from an assignation plot aimed to take his life overnight by unknown gunmen in the volatile town of Afgoye, some 30 Kilometres north-west Mogadishu, reports said. Local sources told Shabelle Media Network by phone from Afgoye that assailants armed with AK47 and pistols have tried to assassinate Mohamud Elmi Arabey, an official in Lower Shabelle region administration for Somali government. "Al shabab elements have ventured last night to storm into my residential house in Afgoye district to eradicate me, but my security guards fended them off from the area and I was unhurt in the attack," the official told Shabelle Media Network by phone.
