Of course we have all known that Khalifa Haftar pushed Belgassim, his brothers and other family members to take the lead on the reconstruction of the troubled region. The publication noted the fancy expressions from Belgassim Haftar, who spoke of the need for quality constructions and such. Good and all, but putting the Haftar family in charge is an affront for the Libya people and a sign that Libya is on the wrong track. Belgassim is not the only one in the Haftar family being propelled by the father. It is therefore crucial for the future of Libya to ensure that cronyism and nepotism do not take place, otherwise, as the French used to say: “Le roi est mort, vive le roi” (the king is dead, long live the king).
