Osman pressed Haji Musa Boqor to resign for unilaterally reopening GSL offices
Evidence
The prime minister asked Osman to join a committee and explain to the minister why his action was inappropriate. The committee met with Haji Musa, and Osman called on Haji Musa, in the presence of another minister, Haji Farah, to submit his resignation. The Speaker of the assembly counseled him that this was the wisest course of action and would safeguard the SYL’s integrity and government. Haji Musa accepted responsibility for his action and indicated his willingness to resign but said he would not until the cabinet explained why he could not reopen the two party offices. — Abdi Ismail Samatar, Africa’s First Democrats, 374
