Sudan's premier unveils first cabinet since veteran leader Omar al-Bashir's overthrow and includes four women, including the country's first ever female foreign minister, Asma Mohamed Abdalla
Sudan's new premier on Thursday unveiled the first cabinet since veteran leader Omar al Bashir's ouster, a major step in the country's hard-won transition to civilian rule after decades of authoritarianism.
The announcement had been delayed for days as Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok mulled over the nominees proposed by the movement that led the months-long protests against Bashir and also the generals who ousted him in April.The 18-member Cabinet is part of a power-sharing agreement between the military and pro-democracy demonstrators, following pressure from the United States and its Arab allies, amid growing concerns the political crisis could ignite a civil war.
Hamdok told a press conference in the capital, Khartoum, on Thursday the Cabinet will include at least three women, including Asmaa Abdalla as the first woman to serve as foreign minister in Sudanese history.The military has nominated Lieutenant General Gamal Omar as defence minister and Idriss al Traifi as interior minister.Source: TRTWorld and agencies
