Council member Osman Majali: “No worries for the republic as long as Taiz, our pulsing heart, is fine.”

In a recent statement to the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), Sheikh Osman Majali, a member of the Presidential Leadership Council, reassured the nation about the enduring spirit of the Republic, attributing its resilience to the province of Taiz. He emphasized Taiz’s pivotal role and contributions across all sectors and regions of Yemen, describing the province as the lifeblood that nourishes the entire country with its pure and noble essence.

A Nostalgic Visit Reinforces Commitment to Freedom

During the conclusion of a presidential visit to Taiz, Majali reflected on the enthusiasm and spirit of the province’s residents and students, which reminded him of his own school days in the 1980s. This experience rekindled memories of freedom and the essence of the Republic, reinforcing the unique and enduring position of Taiz as the heart of the Yemeni body. Despite the challenges posed by the Houthi militias’ control over the capital, Sana’a, Majali remains optimistic about Yemen’s future as long as Taiz remains resilient.

A Call for Unity and Resistance

Majali expressed immense satisfaction with the warm reception from the people of Taiz during the visit, alongside President Dr. Rashad Mohammed Al-Alimi and council member Dr. Abdullah Al-Alimi. He urged the people of Taiz to maintain their high spirits and dedication to the Republic, emphasizing the importance of their role in the liberation of Yemen. Majali specifically addressed those misled by the Houthi forces, advising them against allowing the conflict to infiltrate the province that symbolizes the Republic’s spirit and the collective yearning for liberation from Iranian-backed militias.

Toward a Brighter Future for Taiz and Yemen

Highlighting Taiz’s exceptional status, Majali proposed making it alongside Hadhramaut a summer capital for government and Presidential Leadership Council meetings. He also advocated for establishing a police academy in Taiz to serve the province and its neighbors, underlining the need for focused attention on these regions, especially during these challenging times.

Majali acknowledged the economic difficulties faced by the state budget due to Houthi attacks on oil facilities and international navigation but remained hopeful. He noted the foundation of several projects in Taiz, asserting that these efforts, though significant, are just the beginning of what the province deserves.

A Unified Stand Against Houthi Oppression

Sheikh Osman Majali called on all Yemenis to unite against the Houthi militias, accusing them of violating rights, freedom, and dignity, and plunging the nation into hunger and poverty. He remained confident in the eventual triumph of the Yemeni people and the downfall of the coup, emphasizing that victory is inevitable for a united Yemen against its oppressors.

In summary, Majali’s statements and proposals highlight Taiz’s central role in Yemen’s struggle for freedom and unity. By fostering resilience and solidarity, Taiz continues to inspire the nation’s path toward liberation and prosperity, embodying the indomitable spirit of the Yemeni Republic.
