Fatima Hamdi-Algeria

The most frequent phrase in social networking sites since Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika announced the postponement of the presidential elections and the postponement of the candidacy for a fifth term, who is this young man who is the owner of this phrase, which spread like the fire in the wild?

Sufian Bakir Turki (33 years old) became one of the icons of the popular movement after his intervention in a live broadcast in a surprise way through an Arab television channel, when the correspondence monitored the reception atmosphere of the Algerians Bouteflika's decisions, which he saw public opinion as "an extension of his fourth term".

It was not easy to find Sufian (father of two) after he said his word spontaneously, he shook the street in an intervention did not exceed thirty seconds, and disappeared completely, refusing to appear in any media, "he did not expect to anger that all the uproar that established the sites of communication She did not sit down. "

The demand of the Algerians
"It was the demand of all the Algerians who took to the streets," Sufian told Al-Jazeera Net in his modest home in a popular neighborhood in Algiers.

The phrase spread through Facebook in the form of pictures and comments, and achieved a video of his intervention hundreds of thousands of views in a circumstance, and emerged last Friday protesters raising the slogan "Ytnahoa Kaa" adopted by young people and saw it reflects the core demands of their movement, which began on 22 February last .

Many consider this young man to be the inspiration for the protesters who posted signs of Sufian's image, as well as commentaries, while Facebook activists tried to reach out to the young man to get to know him and hear his story, and the reason for his anger.

Like a dream
"I do not know how I lost my temper and interfered in the direct, although I do not like appearing on television, so I do not use Facebook because I'm involved in the problems of life," Sufian said.

"My heart was filled with anger because I felt the contempt you are trying to deal with us as a people. When I saw the minority, I came out celebrating the decisions, all my dreams were shattered," he said on state television.

He also says he felt let down when he saw dozens applauding the authorities' phony response to the demands of the people. "I said to my friend: Will our fatigue go out in vain?"

Sufian is like a popular movement with a dream that he never imagined would happen. "Let's power our arm by intimidating the black decimal scenario, but we have the right, and the Algerian people will not accept to live under humiliation no matter what," he said.

"When I heard the reporter say (as you watch the Algerian people celebrate), I wanted to let the whole world know that we are not satisfied, and that the truth is the opposite of what the media is doing," he said.

Representation of mobility
"This move is popular with the group, we have all spoken with one voice and we will continue to shout with one voice until all our demands are fulfilled, without being represented by anyone or anyone," he said.

"It is impossible to attend the seminar in any capacity because it does not represent me as long as I call it an illegitimate authority," Sufian said.

Sufian was dreaming of being a footballer. He is eager to meet Algerian international football star Zinedine Zidane and to attend the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona. He also dreams of Algeria being a "dear darling" who boasts young people instead of fleeing in death boats.

"We are the ones who make life in Algeria and make the future because we are the descendants of martyrs who died in the millions in order to live in the homeland," he says.

He said that he loves Arabic "because it is an upscale language, but I felt insulted by the correspondence request, which tried to disparage my words. I meant that the Algerian hairdresser deserved to understand. As they are. "
