Somalia’s Prime Minister Scheduled to Announce His Cabinet on Sunday

Somalia’s Prime Minister is scheduled to announce his cabinet on Sunday, July 31.

Reports from Mogadishu, where the Prime Minister has his office, indicate that he could announce the new cabinet any moment from now.

Last week, Prime Minister Hamza Abdi Barre requested the federal parliament to grant him 10 more days to form his government.

Parliament agreed to his request.

The Prime Minister has been holding meetings with different stakeholders to get their views regarding the kind of government he should form.

There are reports that most of his cabinet could be from outside parliament.
