Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman has issued directives to name a street in the northern Hittin neighborhood of Riyadh. The street will be named after the late Dr. Motleb Al-Nafisah.
The directive, reported by the Saudi Press Agency on Sunday, honors Dr. Al-Nafisah’s outstanding service. He served his religion, country, and the kings of Saudi Arabia for the past 60 years.
Dr. Al-Nafisah, who passed away on March 27, 2025, was widely regarded as one of the Kingdom’s most loyal and dedicated public servants.
Over a distinguished career spanning six decades, he played a pivotal role in shaping key legal and administrative frameworks. These contributions significantly impacted Saudi Arabia.
His career began in 1962 as a legal advisor at the Council of Ministers. This was followed by a position as deputy director general at the Institute of Public Administration.
He later served as head of the Bureau of Experts at the Council of Ministers for two decades.
Dr. Al-Nafisah was also a member of the Supreme Economic Council, the Civil and Military Service Councils, and several ministerial committees.
He served as Minister of State and was a member of the Council of Ministers until his death.
