The sources pointed out that Ben Habtour told Mahdi al-Mashat and Houthi leaders that his government does not have the powers currently in the presence of the Houthi supervisors and remaining powers will be fully confiscated in the event of the appointment of these offices.
This means that there would be overlap in terms of competencies, duplication of work and great differences, but al-Mashat replied to Ben Habtour as " these are the directions of the Mister, referring to the the Militias' leader Abdulmalik al-Houthi, and that the aim is to absorb as many as Houthi leaders and find jobs and financial allocations for them.
The sources added that the appointment process will only be limited for figures close to the Houthi leader Abdulmalik al-Houthi and his relatives.
The aim is to exceed any procedures or orders issued by Ben Habtour and some of his ministers without knowing the office of the Houthi leader, noting that the personalities who will be elected, nominated by the Preventive Security leaders of the Houthi group, which controls the decisions of the head of the so-called political council of militias totally.
