Activists circulated the video clip of Sisi’s statement, which was reported by local media, in which the Egyptian president said: “We go back to the days of our master Youssef, why was he slandering wheat in his ears? Because if he had worked for him a harvest and the wheat remained like that before us. It cannot stand 3 or 4 years, and it spoils, spoils…”
#Sisi in a planet long live Egypt my love ????????✌️ Egypt will return like the days of our master Yusuf (leaving wheat in its spike) Egypt is the world’s food basket ???? by God’s command and permission, ????
Al-Sisi continued, “And the corn with the moisture in it cannot be stored, and therefore when we talk regarding developed countries that are religious in corn, they have the opportunity to dry the corn and give it to us as a dryer, so it bears the transportation and bears the export and storage process following that.”

He added: “With us, he did not work, and if he did it, he did not work on huge surfaces, and therefore the corn must be consumed on time. The dryers he is talking regarding allow me that when I dry the corn, I put it in the silo and store it…”
