...former chancellor of Kabul University, now president of Afghanistan. Before returning to Afghanistan in 2002 he was a scholar of political science and anthropology. He worked at the World Bank working on international development assistance. As Finance Minister of Afghanistan between July 2002 and December 2004, he led Afghanistan's attempted economic recovery until the Karzais stole all the money. ..
strongly rejected rumors on Friday that the National Directorate of Security

(NDS) chief Rahmatullah Nabil was sacked at Pakistain's request.

Instead, Ghani said his resignation was routine.

Following speculation over Nabil's resignation, Ghani said those who believe that either the president of Afghanistan or the national security council would dismiss government officials at the request of others should be prepared for a hundred-year war.

"If someone believes that the president, security council or member of the government dismisses an official at the request of others should be prepared for a hundred-year war, because this is national treason, no foreign country will be allowed to meddle in appointments within the government of Afghanistan" he said.
