Eng. Shohdy Sedky, from Beni Mazar in the Menya governorate a renowned Copt in Upper Egypt is one of the first to join the party and is a co-founder of the Freedom and Justice Party (FJP). In an exclusive interview with Ikhwanweb, Sedky narrates how he got to know the MB and how he came to be a member of the FJP and later bid as a candidate representing the party. Sedky: My first encounter with the MB was 15 years ago while I was having a discussion with my colleague Eng. Ramadan Abdul Azim who was from the MB. We addressed issues and problems concerning the nation and how to end the widespread corruption the nation was facing. Members from the MB ran in the local council elections and I supported them during their alliance with the Labour Party. They succeeded in the elections that year, however the oppression practiced by the former regime and its policies short lived their triumph until the January 25 revolution took place. It was after the revolution that I met with a leader from the MB and told him that I wished to join the FJP which was newly formed by the group. He informed me that he was a co-founder of the party and encouraged me to collect signatures for the party’s Secretary General, Dr. Saad Katatny.
slamic references guarantees the rights of non-Muslims and to be ruled by their religions regarding issues of personal and family affairs. In reality these are the only differences between the Muslims and Copts beliefs, we agree with the other articles regarding Islamic references. In my opinion, the party’s platform is the epitome of justice, and equality for all citizens leaving no room for discrimination. I’d like to take this opportunity to remind myself and the FJP not to get caught in the moment and to remember that the people have vested in us much trust and that we must work hard to deserve this. We must demonstrate patience and remain gracious while dealing with civilians. We are now to be held accountable by 85 million people nationwide. Our party is to serve all even those who did not vote for us; after all we are all Egyptians.
