Sisi’s re-election camp resumes international tour

CAIRO – 15 December 2017: President Abdel Fatah al-Sisi's re-election campaign, A’lashan Nbneha (To Build It), will make stops in Saudi Arabia, the Netherlands, the United States and Italy, according to MP Ghada Agami, who also serves as campaign coordinator.

Launched in mid-September, To Build It aims to collect signatures of support for incumbent President Sisi, urging him to run for a second term as a head of state. The campaign started its international tour in early December to promote Sisi’s achievements abroad, during his first term as president.

In June 2014, President Sisi came to power in the aftermath of the June 30, 2013 popular uprising which toppled former Muslim Brotherhood affiliated President Mohammed Morsi.
