Alaa Mubarak, son of former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, stepped into the battle line of ‘drums’ between journalist Amr Adeeb and businessman Naguib Sawiris, with an amusing comment.
Alaa posted a response to Sawiris’ tweet, which also included a response from Adeeb, including a video clip of a scene from one of the ancient Egyptian plays, through which he indicates his happiness with the subject.
Alaa’s intervention came after a commentator asked him to register his opinion on the exchange of allegations between Sawiris and Adeeb.
Sawiris had interacted with an image showing a number of Egyptian media figures, including Amr Adib and Mustafa Bakri, each carrying a drum, referring to their accusation of beating drums on behalf of the regime, and wrote a comment on the picture saying: “There is a missing person”.
Which prompted a response from a writer, in which he said, “We didn’t make as much from the battery as you made from your battery, Najeeb. It’s possible that our battery had votes, but your battery had towers and bucks.” What bewilderment and amazement”.
