Pro-democracy protesters in Sudan have rejected a deal by military leaders to hand back power to civilian groups. cathkemi explains why 👉🏾
Sudan's army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan has been in charge since Bashir was oustedMilitary leaders in Sudan have agreed to hand back power to civilian groups in a significant move to end the ongoing political crisis.
The uneasy union ended late last year when the military overthrew then Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok. Miltary leader Gen Abdel Fattah al-Buran appeared to share the audience sentiments when he repeated a popular revolutionary slogan: "The military belongs in the barracks." "The biggest problem is that the leaders of the coup - al-Burhan, his deputy Hemeti - stay in power. People have been killed, injured, detained [for protesting] and they are going ahead without accountability."Despite some reservations, Monday's agreement, though still short on details, is seen as an initial step to find a solution to the political crisis.
Rebel groups who backed the army also appear to have been side-lined - the agreement they signed with the government in October 2020 ending decades of civil war could be at risk if not handled well.
