Maliki calls to give larger role to Iraqi clerics
Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri Al Maliki has called to give a larger role to Iraqi clerics in managing the country’s affairs.
Iraqi clerics are responsible for building up the community and the State not the ministries, directorates and institutions, a source told Alsumaria.
Al Maliki however criticized religious institutions for being influenced by parties involved in corruption.
Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri Al Maliki complained of media’s corrupt role calling on religious institutions to raise religious awareness through the media in a call that is regarded to be as the most radical stand taken by Al Maliki.
