Eleven Somali government Ministrs have announced their resignation after meeting in the Somali capital.

The ministers accused the Prime Minister of dictatorship after he fired the mayor of Mogadishu.

They claim that the firing of Mohamed Dhere is illegal and against the country's constitution.

The resignations come just after the reinstitution of the mayor by the president.

Soon after his nomination, Premier Nuur Cadde, formed a government which consisted of 15 ministers 11 of whom have now announced their departure.

There is obviously a major misunderstanding between Prime Minister Nur Adde and President Abdulahi Yusuf over the day today government operations.
