Thinni delays presentation of new cabinet: report |
2014-09-09 |
[Libya Herald] Prime Minister Abdullah Al-Thinni He's the Tripoli/Islamist PM... has delayed presenting his new slimmed-down government to the House of Representatives, its front man Faraj Hashim has told the Libya Herald. An announcement of the cabinet which is to have between eight and ten ministers was expected in the next 24 hours. According to Hashim, the delay is so that Thinni can "study more candidates". Thinni was asked to form a new full time government by the HoR a week ago and it has been widely reported that he had already chosen his team. It is being claimed, however, that he has since come under strong pressure both fromCyrenaica federalists and the National Forces Alliance led by Mahmoud Jibril as to the composition of the cabinet. |
