The transitional government in Sudan denied that an agreement had been reached to dissolve the civilian and military councils, in light of the security tensions that the country witnessed.
Minnawi's announcement
The governor of the Darfur region, Minni Minnawi, had announced earlier that the heads of the Sovereignty Council and the Ministers, Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan and Abdalla Hamdok, had agreed to dissolve the two councils, but they differed over the followed procedures.
Minnawi's allegations quickly received a response from the Sudanese government, which denied the allegations, stressing that the information published today is inaccurate.
The government statement added that the Prime Minister does not have a monopoly on the right to decide the fate of the transition institutions and that he continues to adhere to the points he made in his speech on Friday, October 15, using an approach to resolve the crisis by addressing all its aspects through a dialogue in which everyone participates.
The statement pointed out that the recent meetings held by the Prime Minister were aimed at "protecting the democratic civil transition process and the security and safety of the country."
The decision to dissolve the Sovereignty Council has not yet been confirmed
In a related context, the coordinator of the National Initiative for Change in Sudan, Mohamed Hassab al-Rasoul, confirmed to Al-Mayadeen that the decision to dissolve the Sovereignty Council and the Council of Ministers had not yet been confirmed.
He considered that "the dissolution of the two councils will restore things to normal and will give the opportunity to complete the transitional period."
Al-Rasoul added that political interference disrupted institutions and the current authority was unable to manage the transitional period, noting that "the sit-in in front of the presidential palace represents the Sudanese people with all their political forces."
Demonstrations in Sudan
A number of demonstrations took place in Sudanese cities calling for the reform of the military institution, stressing that it did not represent the "revolution".
