Al-Ghabban: Al-Kadhemi repeated the mistakes of the former in the selection of the candidates

Muhammad al-Ghabban, head of al-Fateh parliamentary bloc in the Iraqi parliament, said that the Prime Minister-designate Mustafa al-Kadhimi “repeated the mistakes of the former official in the mechanism of selecting the candidates”, as he put it.

Al-Ghabban said that “the political blocs have previously agreed with Al-Kadhemi to authorize the candidate to choose his cabinet away from quotas, provided that the candidate has competence, integrity and acceptability, and that these standards apply to everyone.”

He added that “the Prime Minister-designate reiterated the mistakes of the former-commissioner in the curriculum and the mechanism for selecting the candidates, which the masses objected to and requested to correct the path and change the candidates,” stressing that “the taxpayer is continuing in consultations and negotiations to replace the candidates.”

Earlier, the state of law and the National Coalition announced their boycott of the voting session for the government of Prime Minister-designate Mustafa Al-Kadhemi.
