Hurra Iraqiya Bloc accuses Nijaifi of siding with blocs of IS

Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) The head of the Hurra Iraqiya bloc, Qutaiba al-Jouburi, accused the parliament Speaker, Osama al-Nijaifi, of being sided with the blocs of the Iraqiya Slate and neglecting his role by holding the consultative session.

In a press statement received by IraqiNews.com on Monday, he said “Our attendance in the consultative session held on last Sunday was to achieve the successful means of responding to the demands of the demonstrators where it is our duty as being representatives of the Iraqi people regardless its sects.”

“Unfortunately we noticed that the current demands are exploited by the politicians for the political interests,” he added.

He pointed out “Nijaifi deals with the parliament selectively and his performance is not in the requited level where he neglected us as being a parliamentary bloc and representative of Salah il-Din province and did not allow us to talk and always objects us, whereas he sided with the blocs within the IS.”

“If the parliament Speaker neglects the other blocs, how will he adhere to the demands of the Iraqi people?” he concluded.
