SOCOTRS-SABA

Prime Minister Dr Ahmed Obeid Bin-Dagher has stated that the question of nation-building is the key issue that the country has been preoccupied with at present. He said:" Following September 2014 the State has collapsed".

Lecturing at the College of Education in the Archipelagoes of Socotra, Dr Bin-Dagher described the country-reunion in 1990 as one of the most significant decisions that the Yemeni people have ever made in their modern history." The unification of the country in 1990 was a great victory of the Yemeni peoples' history and an unprecedented achievement in the country's temporary history", said Bin-Dagher.

The Prime Minister noted that Yemen has obtained its own share of change in 2011 when the republican regimes in the Arab World seriously challenged by large-scale popular uprisings. He asserted that Yemen was really in need of change and it has already moved on the path of transformation and reached to positive outcomes of the National Dialogue Conference that produced a notion of Federal-State.

Bin-Dagher affirmed that the government is considering the establishment of Socotra University.

The Prime Minister was accompanied by several members of his government including ministers of Higher Education, Health, Fishery, two ministers of state and other senior officials of security and intelligence services.
