Sayed Sadat Mansoor Naderi (Template:Lang-prs) (born 3 March 1977) is an entrepreneur and politician. He was Afghanistan's State Minister of Peace from 2020 to 2021 and Minister of Urban Development and Housing from 2015 - 2018.

Early life

Sadat Mansoor Naderi born in Kabul on 3 March 1977 to Sayed Mansur Naderi, Vice President of Afghanistan during President Rabani's era. Naderi's paternal grandfather, Sayed Nader Kayani, was a well known spiritual leader and famous author/poet. His works consist of a collection of 56 books currently held in Naderi's cultural centre in Kabul as well as some archived at the Congress Library in Washington DC.

Education

Naderi's primary years were spent in Afghanistan. In 1988, at the age of twelve, he relocated to England to continue his senior school education. During high school, Naderi was dedicated to sports and often competed in field events. He was a member of the under 18 British team for hammer. He was also a member of the Harrow volleyball county team. Naderi was also an active member in football, rugby and basketball. At university he was awarded a First Class BA Honours Degree in International Business and Economics in 1999.

Business

Two years after the fall of the Taliban, Naderi returned to his home country Afghanistan in 2003. He invested in different sectors such as fuel distribution, retail distribution, insurance, construction, mining and leasing.[2]

Naderi established Sadaf Petroleum in 2005, whose core business activities involve supplying fuel to both the private and public sector. Company clients included the US Army, Afghan Army, Afghan National Police, telecom companies and embassies among others.[3][4]

Noticing a huge gap in the market, in 2007 Naderi established Insurance Corporation of Afghanistan (ICA), which was to be the first privately owned insurance company in Afghanistan working closely with A+ rated syndicate Lloyd's of London.[5][6][7]

In 2008, Naderi later set up the Finest Superstore in Kabul city.[8]

Political background

Naderi's family has a political background. His father, Sayed Mansur Naderi is the leader of the Afghan Ismaili sect who has served as a vice-president during Mujahideen governance and was a representative in Afghan Lower House for two rounds. His younger sister Farkhunda Zahra Naderi, as well as his cousin, Dawood Naderi have also served as Afghan Parliamentarians.[9][10][11]

Sayed Jafar Naderi, Sadat's elder brother was the Governor of Baghlan province in 1990s. He also served as the security advisor for Abdul Rashid Dostum, First Vice for Afghan President Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai. [12][13]

He obtained 202 votes of confidence out of 239 from the Afghan parliamentary assembly. This result has been the highest vote achieved by any Minister nominee since the Afghan nation's 2004 constitution was adopted.[14]

On April 22, 2015, Naderi assumed office and resigned on June 13, 2018.[15]

Naderi was also a member of Afghan peace negotiators representing the Afghan Ismaili sect.
