26/8/2021: Radio Dabanga - Sudan PM Hamdok: Goal of the Road Forward Initiative is to unify revolutionary forces

Radio Dabanga report on resignations from Prime Minister Abdallah Hamdok’s Road Forward Initiative, despite his emphasis that it aims to unite all the forces that have interests in revolution, in order to complete the transition and lead to free and fair elections.

Following the resignations of Darfur governor Minni Minawi and eastern Sudanese native administration leaders, professor Hadia Hasaballah announced her resignation from the initiative, stating that the committee’s composition cannot achieve its central goals due to the lack of representation of women and youth.

Shahinaz Jamal, a member of the Resistance Committees, also submitted her resignation from the initiative, saying that the mechanism contained people who are “part of the crisis”, such as remnants of the former regime and opportunists. She also criticised the fact that the members were not able to choose the composition and structure of the initiative's membership.
