Former federal interior minister Abdi Farah Juha came to know of his sacking through the media when he heard the announcement on the radio while on his way to Mogadishu airport to fly to Puntland state.

He was travelling to Puntland in order to organize and supervise the expected arrival of President Mohamed Abdullahi Farmaajo in the coming days in Garowe, the state capital.

“This morning I was on my way to the airport to supervise the visit of president in Puntland when I heard through the radio of my sacking from my ministerial post. Authority revolves and everyone is entitled to” posted Juha in his Facebook page.

He expressed his appreciation towards president Farmaajo and PM Khaire who honoured him to be part of the administration.

He appealed for forgiveness on those he assumed he brushed their side while executing his official duties. “I seek forgiveness from those we have collided on duty through difference in thoughts and work. The country is a federal one, the administration is a consultative one and the aim is interwoven even if differences exist on federalism” added Juba.

Abdi Farah Juha was among 3 key ministers sacked this morning by PM Hassan Ali Khaire. The other two are ministers Yussuf Garad Omar and Khadra Ahmed Duale who held foreign affairs and trade and industry respectively.
