However, there has been no official comment on the rumours about the resignation, which if true would mean scrapping the grilling filed two weeks ago by three MPs over alleged violations, especially the payment of the $2.2 billion penalty to US’ Dow Chemical. Hussein submitted his resignation to the prime minister along with all Cabinet members two weeks ago after MPs surprised everyone by filing two requests to grill the ministers. In the meantime, Hussein carried out one of the biggest reshuffle in the oil sector, replacing the chief exec- utive officers of all the eight companies under Kuwait Petroleum Corp. The shakeup also included replacing the chief execu- tive officer of KPC Farouq Al-Zanki, who was replaced by Nezar Al- Adasani. A number of MPs swiftly welcomed the reported resignation but no one confirmed the report. MP Abdullah Al- Tameemi said the accept- Hani Hussein ance of the resignation of the oil minister was “long over- due” but called for following the issue on the payment of Dow penalty in court.
