Africagate, a news website close to loyalists of the former Gaddafi regime, quoted a private source as saying that Saif Al-Islam Gaddafi has officially decided to run for the presidential elections, planned to be held in Libya near the end of this year.

The unnamed source added that this announcement coincided with the 52nd anniversary of the infamous “Al-Fateh Revolution”, created from a coup carried out by Gaddafi on September 1, 1969, which led to his accessing total power over the country exclusively for 42 years. It added that Saif Al-Islam Gaddafi intends to officially announce his candidacy in the near future.
