“It didn’t happen,” Moussa said emphatically in a formal statement issued on Monday March 19. He also condemned those inciting a boycott of the election, describing them as “the state’s enemies”. He affirmed that he will take all legal procedures against anyone who tries to manipulate the Egyptian people.
On Friday, March 16, Moussa issued a statement expressing his campaign’s satisfaction in regards to the smooth electoral process that took place on the first day of voting for Egyptians abroad.
A spokesperson of Moussa’s campaign praised the NEA’s efforts in successfully coordinating with the Foreign Ministry to facilitate the electoral process for Egyptian voters abroad. He also stated that no grave violations concerning the credibility and fairness of the electoral process have been monitored by the party’s operation room, adding that the party’s representatives abroad observed that the polling stations were abundant and located close to areas where Egyptian communities are concentrated.
