Sudanese Prime Minister Dissolves Cabinet Ahead Of Reshuffle

Sudan’s Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok has dissolved his cabinet ahead of the planned reshuffling expected to be announced on Monday. 

 According to a Sunday decree, the ministers will remain in their positions to carry out work “in their ministries until the formation of the new government.’’ 

 Earlier, Faisal Mohammed Saleh, the country’s information minister and the spokesman for Sudan’s transitional government, told Sputnik that the formation of the new cabinet was being postponed to a later date. 

This is because the country’s political forces were yet to submit the lists of candidates.

 A senior member of the Forces of Freedom and Change (FFC) alliance, Al-Tijani Mustafa, earlier told Sputnik that the political forces in Sudan had reached an agreement on the composition of the new transitional government. 

 According to the FFC member, Hamdok plans to keep the incumbent minister of irrigation, justice and religion affairs in the new cabinet.
