Election results were annulled at Lugh Ferrandi due to irregularities.
Evidence
Despite the undisputed success of the SYL, results were annulled at Lugh Ferrandi because of voting irregularities. HDMS’s candidate was murdered before the election, and the results seemed doctored. Kismayo was another place where some irregularities had occurred, although one candidate, named Shaacir, who was from the local community, won despite the odds against him. — Abdi Ismail Samatar, Africa’s First Democrats, 379
