Tunisian President Kais Saied sacked Prime Minister Najla Bouden without giving any explanation and was replaced by a former senior Central Bank executive, Ahmed Hachani. Several local media highlighted President Saied’s displeasure with a number of shortages in the country, particularly of bread in state-subsidized bakeries. Najla Bouden was the first woman to lead a government in Tunisia. The new head of government was an executive at the Central Bank, and studied at the Faculty of Law of the University of Tunis where Kais Saied taught constitutional law, said the person concerned on Facebook. Hachani is completely unknown to the general public.
