The bitter controversy sparked by the insulting statements by the former RCD party leader Saïd Sadi against the Algerian revolutionary figures namely Messali El Hadj, Ali Kafi and Ahmed Ben Bella is still the order of the day.
After the letter from the daughter of Messali to the former leader of the RCD, we received on Tuesday 6 January, the response of Mahdia BenBella,the daughter of late Ahmed Benbella, which we publish fully.
“For any response that I’d like to provide to Saïd Sadi following his scandalous statements about my late father, I’d like to recall Ahmed Benbella’s telling revolutionary itinerary at the service of his homeland Algeria.

None of all the leaders of the Revolution without exception could detect that Ahmed Benbella was in the pay of Egypt and France.
None ofall opponents who did not share his political vision, including Abane Ramdane never treated Ahmed Benbella as an agent of foreign countries.
And thereupon, there comes a tiny “Colombo”, namely Saïd Sadi, who discovers that Ahmed Benbella was an agent in the pay of Egypt and France.
What a scandal!
If frequenting the great personalities who ran the world and Ahmed
Benbella met a lot of them from Che Guevara to Nelson Mandela without forgetting Abdel Nasser, Mohamed V and Habib Bourguiba among others, if he is an agent of a foreign country, then what could be said about Saïd Sadi who has close links with most dubious people who constantly open fire on our country, who try to demonize it and covertly strive to destroy its unity and its entity.
It is up to the Algerians to judge this behavior and draw conclusions.
For my part, I say to Saïd Sadi, you will never be a patch on Ahmed Benbella. »
