Egypt's former chief of staff to run for president

General Sami Anan, a former Egyptian armed forces chief of staff, said on Saturday that he will challenge Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi for the presidency in March, reports AFP.

In a video posted on Facebook, Anan said he would seek to correct the "wrong policies" that had been adopted since Sisi and the Egyptian army ousted Islamist president Mohammed Morsi in 2013.
