Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq to replace Basra Governor May 08 2017 11:40 AM Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq to replace Basra Governor Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq, headed by Ammar al-Hakim, the leader of Iraqi National Alliance, intends to replace Majid al-Nasrawi, the Governor of Basra, political sources said on Monday. "The Supreme Council is considering ousting Basra Governor Majid al-Nasrawi, replacing him with one of the council's leaderships", the sources indicated. They stated that "there are many reasons for Nasrawi's dismissal which the council has put on the table of discussion". The sources added: "Thinking of replacing the governor came as a result of the failure to control the situations in the governorate as well as the failure to control the tribes fighting and resolve their disputes". As Iraqi security forces are busy recapturing Mosul city from ISIS, security uncertainty has prevailed in Iraqi governorates including Basra in which several crimes, kidnappings and terrorism operations were reported. http://www.thebaghdadpost.com/en/story/10256/Islamic-Supreme-Council-of-Iraq-to-replace-Basra-Governor
