The secular Nidaa Tounes party in Tunisia has lost its majority in parliament.
Reports say the Islamist Ennahda party has become the biggest in parliament following divisions in the party of President BEJI CAID ESSEBSI.
The deepening crisis forced eight members to resign, bringing to twenty-seven the number of MPs that have left Nidaa Tounes since Friday.
The dispute is between a faction led by the president’s son, HAFEDH CAID ESSEBSI, and another faction led by a founder of the party, MOHSEN MARZOUK.
