Berlin: The former Afghan Communications Minister is doing pizza delivery work in Germany these days. In the midst of the Afghan crisis, some of his pictures are going viral, in which he is seen wearing a pizza company’s uniform and going for delivery. Syed Ahmed Shah Saadat has held several other important posts along with the Minister of Communications in Afghanistan. In such a situation, delivering pizza like this is shocking for everyone. However, Syed takes pride in calling himself a delivery boy, according to media reports.

A German journalist has shared the photo of the former Afghan Communications Minister on his Twitter account. The journalist also spoke to the former minister about the condition of Afghanistan and how he landed in Germany. Syed Ahmed Shah Sadat resigned from his post at the end of last year due to differences with the Ashraf Ghani government and moved to Germany. When he ran out of money, he started working as a pizza delivery boy for a living.

According to the report of ‘Sky News Arabia’, the former minister is working with a pizza company in Leipzing. He has two master’s degrees in communications and electronic engineering from Oxford University. Apart from this, he has worked in the field of communication with more than 20 companies from 13 countries. Syed Ahmed Shah Sadat said that he has 23 years of experience in the communication field.
