In Ismail Qemali’s government, he was appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Finance, collaborator, and advisor to Aqif Bi\u00e7aku. He fought against the separatist attitudes of Esat Toptani and supported the Vlora War of 1920. During 1921, he served as Minister of Finance in the governments of Pandeli Evangjeli and Hasan Prishtina. He published the newspaper “Ura e Shkumbinit” (\u201cShkumbin\u2019s bridge\u201d) in Elbasan. He supported the Democratic Revolution of June 1924 and the government of Fan S. Noli. After its failure, he left Albania. He returned to the country benefiting from the amnesty and accepted the position of mayor of Durr\u00ebs (1929\u20131937) and Elbasan (1937\u20131939).
