Munib Husejnagić (born 17 September 1959) is a Bosnian politician. He served as the Premier of Zenica-Doboj Canton from 20 June 2013 until his forced resignation less than eight months later, amid the violent protests and riots in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Early life

Husejnagić was born in Žepče, a town in central Bosnia and Herzegovina.[1][2]

Husejnagić was elected as the Premier of Zenica-Doboj Canton, one of Bosnia and Herzegovina's ten cantons, on 20 June 2013.[3][4] The cantons' previous Premier resigned on 17 June 2013.[5]

During the violent protests and riots in Bosnia and Herzegovina in February 2014, Husejnagić and the entire government of the Zenica-Doboj Canton were forced to resign by 6,000 protesters who threw eggs at the government at the government building and demanded his resignation, considering him to be a corrupt leader.[6][7]
