Great Reconciliation?
Sékhmet, Sisle In a stunning political development, Shophet Sinas Bidlis has recalled his longtime political rival Tahir Gido Jr from exile. Bidlis, 83 pardoned Gido Jr of the tax evasion conviction he received while in exile.Gido Jr spent several years in a number of far eastern nations such as Bianje, Kimlien and Tropica.
The Shophet apparently initiated secret negotiations with Gido Jr eighteen months ago sending his niece Shireen as First Secretary at Barmenistan's Embassy in Kimlien. There, Shireen met with Gido Jr on several occasions.
The Shophet personally welcomed Gido Jr at the Queen Sarah International Airport. embracing him and proclaiming him the prodigal son of the ruling party while hundreds of party members looked on and cheered. Gido Jr has been appointed Grand Vizier and Second Secretary of the ruling party. The Shophet's granddaughter Salima is set to marry the new Grand Vizier's second born son Jalil.
The Shophet's moves have left many mystified. Sources from within his government say the Shophet was motivated by three reasons. The first was the ongoing and very high tensions between Barmenistan's powerful neighbours Vanuku and Beiteynu. The Shophet apparently worries that his country could be come a pawn or staging around for escalation. The second was the Shophet's eagerness to reunite the party and strengthen it by creating a powerful family dominating a powerful big-tent national party. The third reason is said to be his personal health and advanced age. It has been whispered among the country's political elites that the Shophet has been suffering from early stage stomach cancer.
The Shophet has kept his cards close to his chest and has refused to confirm if he will stand for a third six year term as Shophet later this year in October.
To live outside the law, you must be honest.
