As soon as Interior Minister Maj. Gen. Abdo al-Tarab was appointed at his new post he wasted no time in running a quick assessment of the ministry, keen to determine the level of professionalism of his men and their readiness should an emergency arise.
Needless to say that Minister al-Tarab’s experiment results let a little to be desired.
Speaking of his findings to the media, Yemen’s new rising minister explained how he found policemen sound asleep on the job while they meant to watch over entire districts at night, how Yemen police force resembled more thugs than they did the law.
Decrying poor moral and a myriad of bad habits, Minister al-Tarab is adamant – everything needs to change now for Yemen’s interior ministry to be restored as a potent force of good.
A man with ironclad determination, Minister al-Tarab is already making the ministry dance to his own tune, one of hard work and dedication. Often the first one to come in the morning, senior officers at the ministry confirmed they had to quickly adapt to the change in leadership by arriving at work prompt and early. Intent on leading by example, Minister al-Tarab has instructed his staff that no person, however high up on the commanding food chain will be allowed in once he reaches his office. Unless officers wish to suffer a pay-cut they, tardiness will have to become a habit of the past.
But if Minister al-Tarab was quick to snap his ministry awake, turning Yemen’s broken police force back into a functioning and productive institution will take more than just a few change in management policies.
That being said, for the first time in a long time, Yemenis have said to have been inspired by Minister al-Tarab’s dedication and commitment. Yemen might just have found the right man for the job. With some luck this new momentum will act a wake-up call to other ministries.
