Did you tell your children about the inspiring father who turned all his capital into a mobile fund to support the revolutionaries before and after September?

Have you read about the radioactive part of the history of the Yemeni revolution?

Abdul Ghani Mutahar: The spiritual, intellectual and material father of the revolution.

The Republic’s sea and its future mountain, rather all its mountains, seas, hills and valleys.

The planner of the revolution, and its messenger to leader Gamal Abdel Nasser, head of the Free Traders Organization, a member of the Yemeni Revolution Command Council and the first governor of Taiz after the revolution.

He is the author of the book "The Day Yemen Was Born, His Glory", which tells the beginning, then the depth of suffering, and even victory.

Mutahhar left a young man to escape from the oppression and injustice of the priesthood. He described all his works in Addis Ababa and Asmara moved to Taiz. He formed the "National Movement for the Revolution" and was the revolution's mobile fund.

During that time, he established shops in Taiz and Mocha to ensure the continued financing of the revolution, and to support the publication of the "Voice of Yemen" newspaper.

He contributed to the establishment of the Nassir Committee for the Free People in 1958, and bought weapons to support the revolutionaries, along with a group of fighters, such as the publisher of Abd al-Rahman al-Arefi, Muhammad Mufreh, Abd al-Qadir al-Khatri, Zaid Mahfal and others. Hamim and Ahmed Naji Al-Adini.

While Abdul Ghani formed the link between the leader Gamal and the revolutionaries and the body of the revolution’s telegram to the Egyptian regime at the time.

They did not record it even in a single lesson in the school curriculum, even though it was the whole revolution. They did not even release a street in his name, even a lecture hall, even though naming all of Yemen's streets, schools, and university lecture halls does not do him justice.

At the moment of the people’s delight in the revolution, Mutahhar withdrew happily and found that this was his best harvest, and he left happy with that, empty-handed of all his money, and he was the largest Yemeni businessman in that era. And the lab and the college in front of the Yemenis.

Abdul-Ghani was asked one day, standing in the street, simple and empty-handed after the revolution, what did he gain from supporting the revolution, so he turned with a smile to students who were passing in front of him in the street by chance, saying: “This is my capital and my first and last gain.”

This hero is supposed to be erected by the republicans as a statue and a monument reminding generations of his heroism, sacrifice, and feat for the sake of all Yemen and Yemenis.
