Mogadishu’s Aden Airport was the scene of a bit of drama when a sports official refused to go through the mandatory screening for the deadly Coronavirus.
A video footage shows the minister, Khadija Mohamed Diriye, marching past bewildered airport workers who want her to go through the process.
Reports show that the minister was from Egypt, a country that’s among the first in Africa to confirm a case of Coronavirus.
The country’s Ministry of Health has made screening for Coronavirus compulsory at all Somalia’s major airports.
Her failure to adhere to the protocols put in place could be a sign of the growing indiscipline in the government.
A government official ignoring measures put in place by the government reeks of gross indiscipline.
