KABUL on Sunday barred the disputed nominees from taking the speaker’s seat.

On Thursday, Mir Rahman Rahmani, Mirwais Yasini, Kamal Naser Osuli and Omar Nasir contested the election for the post.

However, none could bag enough votes to become and the balloting went to the second round, which was deferred to Sunday (today).

Mir Rahman and Osuli, who received the highest numbers of votes on Thursday, were in the run for the slot in the second round of voting.
