Government reshuffle details tomorrow
The upcoming ministerial cabinet reshuffle in the Jordanian government will involve merging the Ministries of Education and Higher Education and Scientific Research. As a result, the two ministries will be abolished, and the current Minister of Education and Labor Resources, Azmi Mahafzah, will assume the unified ministry portfolio. The reshuffle also includes appointing two Deputy Prime Ministers: the Minister of Local Administration for Municipal Affairs, Muhannad Shihadeh, to enhance coordination in local governance; and the Minister of State for Economic Affairs, Muhannad Shihadeh, to follow up on economic files. This will give the Prime Minister three deputies: Ayman Safadi, Muhannad Shihadeh, and Nidal Al-Qatamine, with no change in the Ministry of Labour. The adjustment is limited and aims to implement constitutional obligations without bringing in new ministers. It is expected that the ministers and deputy prime ministers will take the oath before the King on Tuesday.
