KABUL - Afghanistan Chief of Executive Officer, Abdullah Abdullah warned Wednesday that no Jirga is acceptable for him except “Loya Jirga”.

CEO emphasized that some groups and individuals who were in the politics in the past tried to collapse the government system, but now he would not allow anyone to do such hilarious things.

Abdullah Abdullah is said to consider Afghanistan faces many challenges but urges Afghans cooperation for solving the problems.

He says that Pakistan’s support from terrorism made the regional cooperation challenging and Afghanistan will never give its foreign policy into any country’s hands.

CEO believes that the security of the country has not changed just only in one night. But the question that remains is that which figures are plotting for the destruction of the government.

Afghanistan executive officer stressed that all legal and technical challenges for the distribution of electronic ID cards have been solved and delay in distribution of ID cards is not convincible for him.

Afghanistan continues to see delays in launching electronic identification cards that was planned some five years ago.

19 August was set by the ministerial council for the issuance of the cards to begin; however, President Ashraf Ghani ruled it out for some other day.

The omission of citizens’ ethnicity has instead highlighted Afghanistan’s historical ethnic divisions, largely because critics believe putting everyone under the “Afghan” umbrella is politically advantageous to the country’s largest ethnic group, the Pashtuns.

The resulting uproar has derailed the government’s plan to distribute the cards.

Ethnic rifts run deep in Afghanistan, and ethnicity is closely tied to citizens’ broader sense of political and social identity.

The proposed national ID card project is expected to cost $100 million, and will be paid for by the Finance Ministry. (ATN)
