The Libyan Prime Minister-designate Osama Hammad visited Sirte University along with top officials of the country. The visit included meetings with the dean and university officials to discuss the institution’s needs and future steps.
During the meetings, various urgent issues were addressed, including the need for maintenance of buildings and educational facilities. Additionally, plans to restart projects that have been on hold at the university were discussed. In a key development, the General Director of the Libyan Development and Reconstruction Fund issued instructions to begin constructing modern lecture halls for the students.
During the tour, Hammad emphasised that the government is committed to serving the citizens through reconstruction projects across all Libyan cities and regions. He stressed that the visit reflects the government’s resolve and leadership support to ensure the maintenance of facilities and the development of infrastructure nationwide.
With these joint efforts between the government and the Development and Reconstruction Fund, Sirte University is expected to see significant improvements in infrastructure and the quality of services provided to both students and staff.
Days ago, Hammad held a meeting in Sirte with top officials, including the General Director of the Libyan Development and Reconstruction Fund, Eng. Belqasim Haftar, and Hatem Al-Areibi, Head of the Reconstruction and Stability Committee. The gathering aimed to address the ongoing challenges facing Sirte, a city of crucial importance to Libya.
During the meeting, Hammad closely reviewed the progress and operations of service, security, and governmental departments, reiterating the Libyan government’s strong commitment to the development of Sirte. The city is not only the birthplace of the government but also a principal venue for the critical meetings of the 5+5 Joint Military Committee (JMC), and it is preparing to host national powers in efforts to find a Libyan-led solution and consensus.
Hammad emphasised that the ongoing projects in Sirte are not mere grants but rightful entitlements of its citizens. “These initiatives are not targeted at any specific city but span the entire Libyan territory,” Hammad said, announcing the launch of multiple service projects across the nation. He assured that all demands would be met, including the provision of care for cancer patients, and praised the Libyan National Army’s efforts in securing the city.
Following the discussions, Hammad issued a decree to establish a free zone in Sirte’s port, underlining its significant commercial potential.
