President Abdel Fattah El Sisi hoped that the new year would bring goodness and giving to Egypt and the whole world.
“I greet the Egyptian people and the Arab nation on the occasion of the new year, as we shall turn a new leaf of work, construction and challenge,” Sisi said on his official social media pages on Thursday.
He added that “I seize this opportunity and ask Allah Almighty that this year be filled with goodness, giving.”
The Egyptian president wished more success for “each hand that builds the future and every watchful eye protects the security of our homeland.”
“Happy New Year,” he tweeted.
