KUWAIT CITY, Sept 22: According to a post on Twitter that is attributed to the National Assembly Speaker Marzouq Al-Ghanem and has been circulated in WhatsApp groups, the renowned parliament speaker is quitting politics, reports Al-Shahid daily.
The tweet, which was later reported to be fake news, read, “After extensive consultations with close people and members of my constituency, I have decided to quit political work and not run for the next elections. I thank everyone who has supported me during the past years. May Allah protect Kuwait and His Highness the Amir from all harm”.
A number of news websites came out on Twitter to deny the news on behalf of the National Assembly Speaker, most notably the Hanan Al-Kuwait website, Al-Harir News, website of Al-Mukhtasar newspaper, Shamil News, and many other sites that denied the rumor.
