For 40 days, there has been no official conferences and meetings of Mawlawi Abdul Kabir, the political deputy prime minister of the Islamic Emirate.
The last meeting of the deputy prime minister was on September 4 with the former Turkish ambassador, but he has not had an official visit since then.
Meanwhile, the head of the press for the political deputy prime ministers’ office said that Kabir is sick.
There is no news of official visits with the deputy prime minister over the past forty days.
At the meetings as Climate Change, Teacher’s Day, the opening of the Qosh Tapa Canal, the 14th round of police forces graduation and some other meetings along with the presence of cabinet members, Mawlawi Abdul Kabir, the political deputy of the prime minister was not present and no pictures of him were broadcast.
“The political deputy of the Prime Minister was sick and is currently in Kabul at his residence. He has recovered and will soon return to his job.” said Hassan Haqyar, Head of Press and Political Assistance Ceremony
Some political analysts have said that the presence of the deputy of the prime minister in meetings, and meetings with representatives of countries, is beneficial.
“There is no doubt that top officials of any government can cover all areas be it social, cultural, and economic. Their presence is important,” said Omar Nehzat, political analyst.
“There might be ambiguity about his absence in the meeting, but I think these things are not important for the leadership of the Islamic Emirate and their focus on the economy,” said Hadi Zazai, political analyst.
Although the deputy political director of the prime minister is normally seen with representatives of countries, his last meeting with the former Turkish ambassador to Kabul was on September 4.
