A previous bid to appoint Whbee as a deputy minister was abandoned after Interior Minister Meir Sheetrit refused to delegate him responsibilities. Livni appointed Whbee to the position of director-general of her previous portfolio as regional development minister. Ties between the two turned sour, however, after Wahaba was quoted as saying in response to the possibility that Livni would be made defense minister that the position should not be given to a women.
