Follow-up. Someone got motivated...
Or embarassed.
Somali National Army (SNA), along with the African Union Soldiers (AMISOM) have taken full control of the southern coastal town of Marko, the regional capital of Lower Shabelle region.

Hassan Abdulle, a senior Somali police confirmed the seizure of the city, saying the allied troops re-captured the police station and administrative headquarters of Marko, 110Km south of Somali capital, Mogadishu.

Al shabaab fighters entered the city on Friday morning without a resistance, after Somali and AMISOM troops pulled out of the town.
