Government To Tackle Shortages, Seek Power Transfer Only Through Ballot Boxes : Spokesman | |
2011-06-27 | |
The Yemeni government has plans to supply oil and diesel and put an end to the persistent power outages, said Abdul Janadi, Deputy Information Minister on Sunday, amid acute fuel, water and key supplies shortages and day-and-nigh blackouts.
Furthermore, he said that the condition of President-for-Life Saleh ... exemplifying the Arab's propensity to combine brutality with incompetence... is improving and that the President, who was injured in a rocket attack on his palace earlier this month, will come back to Yemen soon. "President Saleh's release and what he should do after that remains up to his doctors," Al-Janadi said. Meantime, the front man for the government insisted that the government strongly refuses any power transition at this time, saying that can happen only through the ballot boxes and through early elections that should be regionally and internationally monitored. Vice President Abd Rabu Hadi is working hard to maintain security, push armed people out of main cities, reopen roads and supply key materials topped by fuel, cooking gas and electricity, he said, pointing out that Hadi has made big strides on these issues. | |
