عبد الفتاح السيسي

Abdel Fattah El-Sisi is the current President of the Arab Republic of Egypt. Sisi is currently in the news for his directives to disburse an exceptional grant of 1,500 pounds to irregular workers for a period of three months, in addition to starting the disbursement of the Labor Day grant. These measures reflect a concern to support those most in need under economic circumstances. Al-Sisi has been president since 2014, and his rule has been characterized by a focus on development projects and economic and social reforms.
