7/6/2024: Sudan Tribune – NUP leadership rift widens over Tagadum coalition participation

Sudan Tribune report that the rift between leaders of the National Umma Party (NUP) regarding their stance on the Tagadum coalition has widened.  

Party leader Fadlallah Burma Nasir insists on participating in the coalition, threatening to refer his deputies to the disciplinary committee.

NUP Secretary-General Al-Watheq Al-Berair, Chairman Fadlallah Burma Nasir, Political Bureau member Zainab al-Sadiq Al-Mahdi, and her brother Siddiq participated in the Tagadum conference in Addis Ababa the previous week.

NUP Deputy Chairman Mohamed Abdallah Al-Douma stated that the party leadership considers those participating in the Tagadum founding conference to be violating party decisions.
