Mawazine News - Baghdad:
Corruption and failure in the work of these councils, which caused them to lose the confidence of the citizen who aspired to have his service needs met in local governments and be a support for him in the advancement of his cities and provinces.
With the upcoming swearing-in of the constitutional oath by the winning candidates for membership in the provincial councils, the question will remain. It is based on the ability of the new councils to restore bridges of trust with the citizen and provide a tangible role on the ground, as this will constitute the true measure of the future of the entire political process.
The head of the “Al-Sharq Center for Strategic Studies and Information”, Ali Mahdi Al-Araji, said in an interview with “Al-Sabah”, which I reviewed. / Mawazine News/ It is “no secret to everyone that the constitutional drawing and description of the governorate councils that are not organized into a region creates a turquoise picture of the mechanism of democratic communication between the citizen and the executive authority, but the reality of the matter is very different,” stressing that “the gap created by the Iraqi politician and the extent of the failure to build... The state dropped all hopes of the citizen, and only the partisan class with belief and affiliation remained practicing the electoral approach compared to the silent majority boycotting any political thought.”
He explained, “This was not only in the form of the provincial council elections, but rather it is an extension of the previous parliamentary session and the low level of participation.” Therefore, self-evidently, I do not believe in the next stage that we will witness any restoration or patching that can occur between the provincial councils and the citizen. For four years or a little less, we have not lived with the provincial councils and have not witnessed a major difference in their existence or not.”
Al-Araji indicated that he strongly supports the democratic practice “because it produces a supervisory council that follows up the progress of the executive authority within the governorate’s borders within the area of decentralization in state administration, but it has not borne fruit, as there is one impressionable image in the mind of the citizen bearing the title of thefts and failure.”
He added: “But it is possible that we will witness a change in some governorates, especially in light of the existing structure and its competitiveness, such as (Karbala and Basra), where the councils will play an actual supervisory role that differs from the rest of the governorates, where the matter will be individual, meaning who aspires to the next parliament or session.” The next provincial council will have a loud voice for an individual interest, not a public one.” Al-Araji concluded by saying: “We may not want to publish a dark picture of the current reality, but what we are talking about now is a true picture of the thought of the Iraqi citizen who needs to restore confidence in the provincial councils.”
For his part, political affairs analyst Aqeel Abbas pointed out, in an interview with Al-Sabah, that “the management of the central election results is problematic and perhaps a big mistake, given that the governorates and the ballot box decide decisively and definitively from the beginning. Therefore, I see that the central management of the results is not "Encouraging."
Regarding the governorate councils restoring confidence among citizens, Abbas believes that “the current governorate councils could be relatively better than the governorate councils that were previously suspended, for many reasons, including that the ruling political class took an example, learned some of the lesson, and is trying to work seriously, and this is what has become clear.” In reforming services, albeit incompletely.
Abbas said it was likely that the coming period would witness an improvement in the performance of the governorate councils, “but not significantly due to the size of the restrictions and the lack of real reform visions,” asking at the end of his speech: “Will the expected improvement be sufficient to restore bridges of trust between the citizen and the political class?! We will wait, perhaps, perhaps.” “To be surprised by good professional and real behavior in the governorate councils breaks the barrier of doubt by restoring confidence.”
