According to a statement in Al-Ain news, Nassif al-Ferjani clarified that Muslim Brotherhood got several candidates’ seats for various appointments at the Libyan Political Dialogue Forum and elections. These candidates come from the specific regions where they are contesting but who is also very loyal to the Islamist organization and its leadership. They will be used for political bargaining, as a large number of Islamist candidates running under the guise of being independent would confuse the electoral process
Al-Ferjani said that many candidates pursue personal interests, in addition to competition between regions and within regions—they have dropped the interests of the nation. The highest judicial authority breached Libyan law by nominating the head of the Supreme Judiciary Council, Justice Mohammed Al-Hafi who has not resigned yet from his position, as well as Major General Osama al-Juwaili who ran for the Presidential position and has not resigned too. The same applies to Fathi Bashagha who when fielding his candidacy for the post of Prime Minister has still not stepped down from his position as Minister of Interior
