SUDAN NEWS ALERT: AP – Sudan protesters don’t want political parties in government

25/7/19: AP – Sudan protesters don’t want political parties in government, by Samy Magdy

 AP reports that hundreds of Sudanese took to the streets today to insist that an upcoming transitional government be made up of experts and technocrats, rather than political parties.

 There was no immediate response to such demands by Sudanese political parties but the opposition Congress party posted videos for the protests in Khartoum and its twin city of Omdurman.

 In addition, the Forces for the Declaration of Freedom and Change, which represents the protesters, said in a statement that their marches reject any party allocations in the Cabinet during the transitional period.
