Ummah Party criticizes Turabi's refusal to form coalition government

The opposing Sudanese Ummah party criticized the statement made by Hassan Turabi, the secretary general of the Sudan's ruling National Conference Party, in which he excluded the establishment of a coalition government that includes the opposition.

Bakri Adeel, a prominent leader in the Ummah Party, said in press statements to the Sudanese newspaper El-Rai El-Akhar yesterday that these statements reveal that the Sudanese government's enthusiasm for national reconciliation is nothing but a political tactic whose time has ended.

He added, "The manipulation proved the non-seriousness of the Revolutionary Command Council for National Salvation in reaching reconciliation and national unity."
