Somalia's Prime Minister Omar Abdirashid Sharmarke has re-shuffled and expanded his cabinet, officials said on Tuesday. Ali Jama Ahmed and Abdalla Boss Ahmed were named as the new foreign and defence ministers respectively. Both men held these posts in the former transitional federal government. In addition, the finance portfolio was split into two positions with Abdirahman Omar Osman, the former protocol chief in President Sheikh Sharif Ahmed's office, being named treasury minister alongside Finance Minister Sharif Hassan Sheikh Aden. Mohamed Abdi Ghandi, the former defence minister, becomes Somalia's new transport minister, Reuters reported.
