Sudanese PM: Situation under control

Khartoum, Sudan (PANA)  -  Prime Minister Abdallah Hamdouk Tuesday reassured Sudanese people that the limited insurgency in Khartoum by discontented security elements was “under control”.

“We want to assure the Sudanese people that the incidents which took place today (Tuesday) are under control and they will not stop us from completing our mandate. There is no reason for us to retreat from the goals of this revolution,” the prime minister tweeted.

He added that this situation stressed the need for the current partnership to push forward to achieve higher goals.

Hamdouk was referring to the regular forces, the armed forces and the Rapid Support Forces.

Some of the revolutionaries were not happy that the prime minister was always stressing the need to have strong partnership between the army and civilians if the government was to succeed and security maintained in the country.

“We reiterate our faith in the Sudanese armed forces and the regular forces and their ability to contain situation,” he underlined while commenting on the insurgency by some security elements.
