Marksman Posted December 12, 2013 This is the new prime minister. Dr Abdiwali Sheikh Ahmed. (according to Twitter announcements) Dr. Abdiweli Sheikh Ahmed is a Somali-Canadian, a graduate of Somali Faculty of Economics; studied Economy at University of Ottawa, Canada. He was born in Bardhere in 1959. He's an economist (PHD holder) who worked with the Islamic Bank in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia & IGAD. It would be great to start a new thread about this guy and his profile. http://uk.reuters.com/article/2013/12/12/uk-somalia-politics-idUKBRE9BB0O820131212 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RoccaLittorio Posted December 12, 2013 "Ahmed, a Canadian citizen, is a newcomer to politics and was overlooked for the post last time around. An economist with a degree from the University of Ottawa, Ahmed worked for the Islamic Development Bank until his appointment. He has also worked for the eastern and southern African regional trading bloc COMESA." http://www.aljazeera.com/news/africa/2013/12/somalia-appoints-new-prime-minister-2013121215113721674.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
