He added: the alliance proposed four nominees for the prime minister post: Haider Al-Abadi, Qasim Al-Araji, Mohammed Tawfeeq Alawi, and Abd Al-Hussain Abtan. We urge that all nominees should have a fair and equal opportunity for the post. And we ask all Shia coalitions to consensually approve one of them.
