Power cuts disturb life in eastern Sudan’s El Gedaref

The residents of El Gedaref town in eastern Sudan complain about long-lasting power cuts over the weekend.
“The outages started on Friday, and lasted more than eight hours during the day,” a listener reported to Radio Dabanga.
He attributed the problem to the break-down of one of the town’s transformers a month ago.
“Apart from disturbing the drinking water network, the power cuts affected other government institutions, businesses, and organisations,” he said.
