Political careeredit
As prime minister, Sedky supervised and sometimes criticised reforms suggested by the International Monetary Fund. In November 1993, he survived an assassination attempt in Cairo by the militant Islamic group Vanguards of Conquest, which resulted in the death of a schoolgirl called Shaimaa.[2][3] On 2 January 1996, he along with his cabinet resigned; his post was filled two days later by Kamal Ganzouri.[4] Sedky is the longest serving Egyptian prime minister since the Khedivate in 1878.
