(32 minutes later) | |
Egypt's President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi is due to be sworn in for a third consecutive six-year term as the country's leader. | |
He was re-elected in December with an astounding 89.6% of the vote, beating three other candidates | |
His swearing-in ceremony will be held on Tuesday at the new parliament buildings near the capital, Cairo, partly state-owned newspaper Al-Ahram reported. | |
Mr Sisi, 69, first became president in 2014, a year after he had led the military's overthrow of his Islamist predecessor Mohammed Morsi. | |
He is credited with implementing several mega infrastructure projects during his tenure, but has also been criticised for a difficult economy marked by crippling debt and extreme inflation. | |
The Egyptian pound has lost more than 50% of its value against the US dollar, creating a severe cost-of-living crisis. | |
Human rights groups have also accused Mr Sisi of cracking down on critics. | |
His new term of six years is supposed to be his last, according to the country's constitution. | |
