3/10/2021: Sudan Tribune - New coalition says Sudan’s FFC monopolizes power

 

Sudan Tribune report that 16 political and armed groups signed a new charter entitled "The National Consensus Charter for the Unity of the Forces of Freedom and Change" and blamed some of its components for monopolising power.

 

The new alliance gathers, among others, the Sudan Liberation Movement led by Darfur governor Minni Minnawi and Justice and Equality Movement of finance minister Gibril Ibrahim.

 

In their speeches, Minnawi and Ibrahim denounced the monopoly of power by four components of the FFC saying they have excluded the other groups that participated with them in the struggle against the former regime.

 

Minnawi called to review all the appointments that took place after the collapse of the former regime. While Ibrahim, in his speech, insisted on the need to review the Empowerment Removal Committee adding that "civil servants should not be removed for political affiliation".
