Ashgabat: Turkmenistan President Gurbanguly Berdymukhamedov has
fired the country's energy and industry minister at a general
ministerial meeting over poor parenting skills, Turkmen television
reported.
President Berdymukhamedov dismissed Yarmukhammet Orazgulyev,
citing the latter's poor rearing of his son, who was involved in a
serious traffic accident with his fellow students at the Turkmen
Politechnical Institute.
During a ministerial meeting, Interior Minister Isgender Mullikov
brought up the issue of the accident and said children from high
ranking officials were involved, including Orazgulyev's son.
Berdymukhamedov continued the discussion by saying that
unfortunately many leaders do not give sufficient attention to the
rearing of their children and their authority as a leader depends
on how their children are raised and how they behave in society.
The Turkmen leader also added that as a rule poorly raised
children fall into trouble and tragic stories like this particular
accident which was caused by children of highly appointed parents.
Orazgulyev, who was a presidential candidate in the country's
elections held in mid-February, sought forgiveness from President
Berdymukhamedov saying he was "incapable of giving members of his
family fatherly guidelines and instructions".
The head of the Turkmen Politechnical Institute, Khydyr Saparlyev
was also fired while education minister Gulshat Mammedova and
deputy education minister Geldimurata Dzhumagulyeva were given
severe reprimand.
