Hei gente...buone nuove da Amman (almeno sembra):
"Tribesmen protest ends peacefully"
By Hani Hazaimeh - The Jordan Times
AMMAN - A protest by tribesmen who blocked the airport road linking Amman and the south ended peacefully when officials talked to protesters, officials said.
Minister of State for Media Affairs and Communications and Government Spokesperson Taher Odwan confirmed reports and eyewitness accounts that the vital road was blocked by members of the Bani Sakher tribe, which resides in the Central Badia area to the south and east of the capital.
"They were demanding tribal wajihat. Officials from the interior ministry, which has the jurisdiction over the issue, intervened and they dispersed" the official said.
Spokesperson for the Public Security Department Lt. Colonel Mohammad Khatib said that the protest ended peacefully and the highway was open and safe for traffic.
Following a similar protest Saturday by tribes in Zarqa Governorate, the government on Monday pledged to find just solutions to the issue of tribal claims to the issue of wajihat, the local name given to state-owned lands, distributed to various tribes in the Ottoman period for purposes of grazing and cultivation.
Tribesmen claim that parts of the lands were allocated by the government for housing projects for civil servants and others.
