The UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) in a statement on Sunday has urged the government and electoral bodies to safeguard and complete the election process.

This presidential election was the first completely run by Afghan authorities since 2001 and is an important milestone in Afghanistan’s transition to self-reliance, the statement said.

Documents seen by TOLOnews reveal that the acting Minister of Finance--and top adviser to President Ashraf Ghani-- Mohammad Humayon Qayoumi, received a $255,000 salary from a private firm in the US in 2017.
