Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox Minister Adnan Hussein (born 27 February 1954) is a Lebanese political scientist, academic and politician who served as minister of state for social affairs in the cabinet led by Prime Minister Saad Hariri. He is a close ally of former Lebanese President Michel Suleiman.[1]

Early life and education

Hussein was born in Zkak Al Blat on 27 February 1954. He holds a PhD in political science, which he received from Lebanese University in 1989.[2][3]

Career

Hussein began his teaching career at Lebanese University in 1990.[2] He also taught at the command college of the Lebanese Armed Forces.[3] He served as minister of state for social affairs from 9 November 2009 to January 2011.[4] He was one of five ministers appointed by President Michel Suleiman.[5] In addition, Hussein was one of the independent and Shia members of the cabinet.[6] His resignation from office led to the toppling of Saad Hariri's cabinet, since ten ministers, who were the members of the 8 March alliance, had resigned before.[7][8] They resigned due to their objections to the UN investigation into the assassination of Rafik Hariri in 2005.[9]

In October 2011, Hussein was made the president of Lebanese University which caused criticisms due to his limited qualifications for being a university president because he does not know any other language than his native Arabic.[2][10]

Personal life

Hussein is married and has three children.
