In a revealing interview with journalist Paul Lopez, Minister Kareem Musa discussed his recent transition from the Ministry of Home Affairs to the newly established Ministry of Immigration, Governance, and Labor. Addressing concerns about the potential impact on his political career, Musa dismissed the notion that his new role was a demotion. Instead, he framed the appointment as a significant endorsement from the Prime Minister, highlighting the importance of the three combined portfolios. Musa acknowledged the substantial legal and administrative challenges within the new ministry, particularly in labor, where ongoing trade disputes require immediate attention. He emphasized his readiness to tackle these issues, viewing the role as an opportunity to thrive without the intense pressures of his previous position. Musa also reflected on the demanding nature of his tenure at Home Affairs, where he felt personally accountable for every crisis, contributing to his visible stress and grey hair. Despite the skepticism from some quarters, Musa remains optimistic about his future in this pivotal role.
