President Aidarous Qassem Al-Zubaidi, President of the Southern Transitional Council (STC) and Vice Chairman of the Presidential Leadership Council (PLC), on the sidelines of his visit to the city of Chicago in the US state of Illinois on Monday evening, paid a visit to the Aden Educational and Cultural Center located south of the city.

Upon their arrival at the center, President Al-Zubaidi and a delegation accompanying his excellency were received by Mr. Ahmed Al-Wali, Head of the Southern Community in Chicago, Mr. Ali Obaid bin Hamdeen, Secretary-General of the Community, and a number of community members and activists.

President Al-Zubaidi toured the various sections, halls, and classrooms of the Aden Center and listened to a detailed explanation from the center's management regarding the activities undertaken by the community through this institution, which serves as a hub of educational, cultural, and social initiatives for the Southern community.

President Al-Zubaidi expressed his satisfaction with the center’s activity, praising the role of the community’s headship and members in establishing the center and its efforts to connect generations with their mother tongue, identity, Islamic traditions, and social customs.

It's worth noting that the Aden Center was established in 2015 with the cooperation, response, and contributions of benevolent individuals from the Southern community in Chicago. The center has hosted numerous events, including seminars and celebrations in support of the people of the South at home and their representative body, the STC.
