Presidential decree #JSL/M/XILQ/249/1-2544/062014 brings the number of recently sacked ministers to two following a similar one last month, May that saw the exit of indefatigable and charismatic Dr Omar from the commerce and international investment portfolio.
While reasons leading to the current sacking are succinct those behind that of Dr Mohamed Abdilahi Omar, a known die-hard Silanyo supporter and trusted lieutenant remain a mystery.
