Galmudug Regional State President Ahmed Abdi Kariye fired the Minister of Transport and Aviation, Abdirisakh Mohamed Mahmoud, in an official decree issued today.
President Kariye has directed Liban Abdi Mohamed, who serves as the Minister of State for the Ministry of Transport and Aviation, to assume the responsibilities of the ministry.
The decree did not provide any additional details regarding the reason behind President Kariye’s decision to remove the minister.
However, the dismissal coincides with the massive anti-al Shabab operations in Galmudug state, where the government forces have made significant progress in recent operations.
