Who Will Rule After This Guy ??

I do not know why after seeing the pictures of Zine El Abidine Ben Ali presenting his candidacy for the upcoming presidential elections , I asked myself a question :

Who will rule Tunisia if this man suddenly dies ?? already he has no vice president nor does he have a son like in our case in Egypt or in Syria ??

The Tunisian presidential elections will be held on the 25th of October 2009 and it is widely expected , well not expected it is known that Ben Ali will win by 99.9999999999999% as usual if God has not other divine plans. I am sure that there are other who are considered good candidates to rule after him.

Unfortunately he is not that old enough nor Tunisia has a neighbor like us so its future could be discussed like the future of Egypt.

  1. The country is full of good candidates from the opposition, but it's rumored that he is grooming his son-in-law Fahd Al-Materi to succeed him, since he has no sons.

    Al-Materi is a 29 years-old business tycoon with a huge media empire, including the country’s largest daily Al-Sabah. He also owns the first Islamic bank and the first religious radio station in Tunisia.

    Last year, he joined the central committee of the ruling CDR, along with the president’s controversial brother-in-law Belhassen Trabelsi, who is also a business partner with Samih Sawires.
