Expressing his aspirations, President Al-Alimi looked forward to an increased role for the judiciary in Hadhramaut province, viewing it as a pivotal point in the desired partnership project deserving of the province’s residents.

Sheikh Osman Majali, a member of the Presidential Leadership Council, also emphasized the judiciary’s role in supporting the efforts of local authorities and overseeing the state’s non-disposable assets without legal justification. He pointed out the importance of complementary relationships among all authorities to enhance citizens’ trust in state institutions and to build the best model in the liberated provinces.

This meeting signifies a crucial step towards reinforcing the judiciary’s role and fostering a collaborative environment among different branches of government to ensure the rule of law and public trust in governmental institutions.
