CAIRO – 20 January 2018: Hashtag “A tale of homeland” trends on Twitter on Saturday even after the three- day conference, which holds the same title, ended on Friday.

President Abdel Fatah al-Sisi launched the conference to review the achievements made during his four-year tenure.

At the beginning of the conference, Sisi expressed his appreciation to Egyptians, asking them to stay proud and positive because they were lending a hand in building the country for the sake of future generations, and “that is not deemed as suffering.”

He also said that what Egypt accomplished during the past years was all due to a dream that Egyptians insisted on bringing to reality. He counted then a number of challenges that Egyptians managed to meet during his first presidential term.

“The great people of Egypt stood in the face of terrorism and sacrificed a lot in their battle to bring back security and stability against the enemies of life and humanity,” Sisi stressed. “In the front rows of this battle were men of the Egyptian Army and the Egyptian Police; history will never forget them and will commemorate them with letters of light in Egypt’s record of struggles.”


Twitter users’ reactions varied between support, sarcasm and opposition.
