Tunisia swears in new president, Kais Saied

Tunisia has sworn in a new president, Kais Saied.

Kais Saied, a political outsider and retired law professor, was sworn in as Tunisian president today after he won a landslide victory in this month’s election.

Saied’s win delivered a heavy blow to a governing elite accused of failing to improve living standards or end corruption since the 2011 revolution that introduced democracy after years of authoritarian rule.


Even with a large mandate, the new president has less direct control of policy than the prime minister and both will quickly face a series of tough challenges including high unemployment rates and fighting corruption.

“There will be no tolerance in wasting any millime (cent) of the money of our people,” Saied said in a speech.

He vowed to protect freedoms, saying: “Those who have nostalgia to go back to the old years only pursue illusions and mirages,” he added.  Gossip - Who Which What Where When How #jaiyeorie πŸ“Ž ... CRITIC ALSO πŸ–‹️ spill TEA ☕ Easy on Shade πŸ’£ πŸ–‹️ πŸ“œ COMMENT BELOW
