Tunisia’s president names Romdhane as country’s first female PM

Al Jazeera, 29 Sep 2021
Tunisia's President Kais Saied has appointed a new prime minister.
He has tasked Najla Bouden Romdhane with forming a government. She is the first woman to do so.
The move comes after four political parties formed a coalition to oppose Saied on Tuesday.
Opposition politicians have warned they will call for more protests unless he reverses his move to seize power.
Last week, Saied announced he would rule by decree and ignore parts of the constitution.
