IRAQI President Fuad Masum yesterday tasked deputy parliamentary speaker Haider al-Ibadi with forming a government during a brief ceremony broadcast live.
“The country is now in your hands,” Masum told Ibadi, who moments earlier was selected as nominee for prime minister instead of incumbent Nuri al-Maliki by the Shiite National Alliance parliamentary bloc.
Ibadi, a member of Maliki’s Dawa party who is viewed as close to the two-term premier, was communications minister in the interim government following the overthrow of Saddam Hussein.
