Kim Campbell vs Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed

Campbell was appointed Minister of National Defence by Prime Minister Brian Mulroney in 1990. She was the first woman to hold this portfolio in Canada. During her tenure, she oversaw Canadian forces during the Gulf War and the Oka Crisis.

Kim Campbell was sworn in as the 19th Prime Minister of Canada on June 25, 1993, succeeding Brian Mulroney. She became the first and only woman to hold the office. Her tenure lasted only 132 days until the federal election in October.

In the October 25, 1993 federal election, Campbell's Progressive Conservative Party was reduced from a majority government to just two seats in the House of Commons. This was the worst defeat for a governing party at the federal level in Canadian history.

Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed, known as Farmajo, was elected President of Somalia by the Federal Parliament. His election was seen as a potential turning point for the country's political stability and fight against corruption.

Shortly after his election, controversy erupted over Farmajo's dual citizenship with the United States. Somali law prohibits dual citizens from holding high office, leading to a parliamentary investigation and debate about his eligibility.

Farmajo's term ended in February 2021 without elections held, leading to a political crisis. After months of deadlock and clashes in Mogadishu, he agreed to a new electoral process and handed over power to Hassan Sheikh Mohamud in May 2022.
