Umma Party calls on Sudan to unite for prisoners’ release

The National Umma Party has sent a message to the Sudanese people and its followers to stand together for the release of all political detainees in Sudanese prisons. Amongst them are the head of the Umma Party, El Sadig El Mahdi, and the Sudanese Congress Party leader Ibrahim El Sheikh. Sarah Nugdallah, Secretary-General of the Umma Party, called via Radio Dabanga on all Sudanese political forces to “line up together and move to topple the regime in Khartoum”. Ali Mahmoud Hassanein, the head of the National Front, has also called on all Sudanese to unite to overthrow and reject any dialogue with the regime in Khartoum. He appealed through Radio Dabanga to the political forces, the opposition National Consensus Forces, and the different rebel factions of the Sudan Revolutionary Front to reject the National Dialogue with Sudan’s ruling party and President Omar Al Bashir. “We will not accept and/or get satisfied with less than the removal of the regime, the arrests of its leaders, and a trial to all its collaborators in Khartoum.” File photo: Umma Party demonstration in Dongola on Monday (by Radio Dabanga correspondent) Related: Protests against Sudanese Congress Party head’s detention (12 June 2014) Umma Party and SPLM-N intensify cooperation in Sudan (12 June 2014)
