Sudan's New Post-Bashir Cabinet Gets Approval From Public

Naba Mohiedeen

   KHARTOUM - Sudan's new Cabinet was sworn in Sunday, five months after
   the military ousted longtime president Omar al-Bashir. Can the new
   ministers win acceptance and guide Sudan to elections in 2022?

   The new Cabinet was set up under a power-sharing agreement between the
   military rulers who ousted Bashir and pro-democracy protest leaders.

   Political analyst Mohamed Abdelrahman thinks the new cabinet is winning
   wide acceptance in Sudan -- and that the ministers should use this
   acceptance to build a strong, representative government.

   The post al-Bashir era has witnessed many changes. The situation could
   get complicated and reach a peak that could lead to a serious turn,
   Abdelrahman says. Sudan could pass this dark tunnel by the new cabinet
   sworn in, which has the widest public acceptance since Sudan
   independence. The new government should work on the comprehensive
   reconciliation and the social development, he adds.

   Democracy supporters like Fifian Yousif celebrated the formation of the
   cabinet Monday. Yousif expressed confidence in the choices by Prime
   Minister Abdalla Hamdok.
