MP Jamil Al Sayyed wrote today on Twitter: ‘It is not my habit to hail people, whoever they are, because power corrupts most of them when they reach it; however, in these days of presidential vacuum, utter chaos, and rampant corruption in all corners of the country, Lebanon needs a Maronite president with national specifications and the ethical, clean and coexistent character of the late Minister Michel Eddeh…’ He added: ‘It is true that my advocacy today for Sleiman Franjieh’s success naturally requires the existence of a competent and independent government by his side, in addition to his ability more than anyone else to withstand and face the fateful risks that threaten Lebanon, most importantly the Israeli enemy, resettlement, the displaced and division; yet, in the event that these risks disappear in the future, Salim Michel Edde will be the most qualified for the presidency of the republic, not because of his late father, but because of his gratuitous love for Lebanon and his personal specifications and professional and moral background history…’ MP Al Sayyed concluded his tweet by hoping, at least at this stage, that Salim Michel Edde be appointed as a new governor of the Banque du Liban, underlining his strong confidence that the latter can perform in this position what no one else can do in reforming the monetary and financial situation in the country.
