Yemeni General Election

19.02.2012

Sanaa

Yemen will choose a new president in four days, but the winner of the election is already known.

Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi, the only candidate in Tuesday's election, is the vice-president of outgoing leader Ali Abdullah Saleh.

Despite the upcoming poll, anti-government protesters are not yet convinced that there will be genuine change in their country. There is an overwhelming sentiment among protesters that their revolution has been stolen by the political elite and tribal leaders.
