President Abdel Fattah el Sisi called on governors to deal freely with crises in their governorates.

During a meeting with youths taking part in the government simulation program, organized by the presidential program for qualifying youth, the president said any governor has power similar to those of the president in his governorate and has resources to be able to resolve problems.

The president was answering a question on the powers of the governor in terms of dealing with crises similar to the torrential rain problem which occurred in the Mediterranean city of Alexandria last winter.
