Serikali ya Haiti imeendelea kuingia kwenye sintofahamu baada ya Waziri Mkuu, Ariel Henry kumbadilisha Waziri wa Sheria, Rockfeller Vincent Pia, Afisa wa Juu amejiuzulu akisema hawezi kumtumikia Kiongozi anayeshukiwa kuhusika kwenye mauaji ya Rais Jovenel Moise Henry amekana kuhusika katika mauaji hayo akisema tuhuma hizo zinalenga kumzuia kufanya kazi kubwa inayohitajika katika Taifa hilo masikini ====== Fresh turmoil hit Haiti's government on Wednesday as Prime Minister Ariel Henry replaced his justice minister and a senior official stepped down, saying he could not serve a premier under suspicion in the assassination of President Jovenel Moise. Amid a brewing political crisis, Henry replaced Justice Minister Rockfeller Vincent with Interior Minister Liszt Quitel, who will take charge of both portfolios, according to a statement in Haiti's official gazette. The resignation of Renald Luberice, who served more than four years as secretary general of Haiti's Council of Ministers, came after new evidence emerged linking Henry to the former justice ministry official who investigates say is one of the main suspects behind Moise's killing. Prosecutors say phone records show the two spoke twice around 4 a.m. on July 7, just hours after Moise, 53, was shot dead when heavily-armed assassins stormed his private residence. Henry has denied any involvement in the murder but he has not directly addressed the phone calls and on Tuesday he replaced Haiti's chief prosecutor who had been seeking to charge him as a suspect and ban him from leaving the country. The premier last week dismissed attempts to interview him over Moise's killing as politicking designed to distract him from the work at hand in the poorest country in the Americas where power struggles have for decades hampered development. In a letter shared on social media on Wednesday, Luberice said he cannot serve someone who "does not intend to cooperate with justice, seeking, on the contrary, by all means, to obstruct it." Henry on Wednesday replaced Luberice with Josue Pierre-Louis, a veteran technocrat who has since 2017 held the rank of government minister in his role as the General Coordinator of the Office of Management and Human Resources (OMRH), according to the gazette statement.
