Shafaq News/ The Saladin Provincial Council on Sunday voted for Ahmed "Abu Mazen" Abdullah al-Jubouri, the leader of the al-Jamaheer (The Masses) party, to assume the role of head of the local government in the province.
A correspondent for Shafaq News agency said that a majority of nine out of 15 members had cast their votes in favor of al-Jubouri.
"The Azm bloc, led by lawmaker Muthanna al-Samarrai, boycotted the proceedings," the source said.
Their deliberate absence was an attempt to protest the election al-Jubouri as the head of the local government, according to the source.
