Sudan protesters to hold 2-day strike to pile pressure on military | Sudan protesters to hold 2-day strike to pile pressure on military |
(32 minutes later) | |
Sudan is bracing for a two-day nationwide strike from Tuesday. Protesters hope to pile pressure on the military to hand power to a civilian administration, AFP reports. | |
The talks remain deadlocked, as leaders of the protest movement, the Alliance for Freedom and Change, and army generals who seized power after ousting President Omar al-Bashir last month, have so far failed to iron out differences over who should lead a new governing body. | |
The new governing body is expected to install a transitional civilian government, which in turn would prepare for the first post-Bashir elections after a three-year interim period ends. | The new governing body is expected to install a transitional civilian government, which in turn would prepare for the first post-Bashir elections after a three-year interim period ends. |
“The two-day strike aims to deliver a message to the whole world that the Sudanese people want a real change and they don’t want the power to be with the military,” said Siddiq Farukh, a leader of the protest movement. | “The two-day strike aims to deliver a message to the whole world that the Sudanese people want a real change and they don’t want the power to be with the military,” said Siddiq Farukh, a leader of the protest movement. |
