Correct Answer : December 27th
Somalia’s president suspended the country’s prime minister and marine forces commander Monday(27-12-2021), a sharp escalation in a political dispute that threatens to further destabilize the troubled nation on the Horn of Africa.
President "Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed" suspended Prime Minister "Mohamed Hussein Roble" over allegations of corruption and misuse of public land. Mohamed’s office had earlier accused Roble of “posing a serious threat to the electoral process” and carrying out activities that violated his mandate.
Roble refused to accept the order and accused Mohamed of deploying troops to attack his office and those of the Cabinet to prevent them from carrying out their duties. The moves, he said in a televised address, were “a blatant attempt to overthrow the government, the constitution, and the laws of the land.”
