Mogadishu (Kaab TV) – The Prime Minister of Somalia, Hamza Abdi Barre, has issued a decree appointing a new Minister of Information, Culture, and Tourism after referencing Article 120, Sections 2 and 3 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Somalia and consulting with the President of the Federal Republic of Somalia.

The Prime Minister appointed Abdifatah Qasim Mahmoud as the Minister of Information, Culture, and Tourism, citing the broad responsibilities facing the government and the need to accelerate key national duties. The appointment comes after the dismissal of former minister Daud Aweis, who had been one of the longest-serving ministers in the current administration.

Prime Minister Hamza Abdi Barre urged the new minister to demonstrate responsibility, transparency, and increased commitment in carrying out his duties.

It is worth recalling that on May 21, 2025, the Prime Minister removed Abdifatah Qasim Mahmoud from his previous position as Deputy Minister of Defense and replaced him with Idiris Osman Haji Ali. At the time, no official reason was publicly announced for his dismissal, although he later told the media that he had left to pursue his studies.

Notably, the newly appointed Minister of Information is also a member of the House of the People in the Federal Parliament of Somalia.
