30/5/19: Sudan Tribune – Al-Mahdi says willing to take part in early election in Sudan

 Sudan Tribune reports that Sadiq al-Mahdi, the head of the Umma Party, as well as the Sudan Call alliance, said they are willing to take part in early elections if a number of benchmarks are fulfilled.

 The TMC threatened several times to hold early elections if the deadlock with the DFC continues.

 In an interview with London based Alquds Alarabi released on Thursday, Al Mahdi welcomed the early elections. However, he warned that if the TMC decides unilaterally to hold elections, they would boycott it if no agreement on the elections was reached.
