Sudan’s NCP says it is too early to talk about post-dialogue government

February 2, 2016 (KHARTOUM) – Sudan’s ruling National Congress Party (NCP) Monday said it is too early to talk about the type of the government that will be formed to implement the outcome of the National Dialogue Conference (NDC).

The NCP was reacting to the conclusions announced by the head of Governance Issues Committee Barakat Musa Hawati on Thursday 28 January 2016 when he told reporters that a Government of National Reconciliation led by President Omer al-Bashir will be formed to implement the resolutions of the national process.

Commenting on Hawati’s statements, NCP spokesperson, Yasir Youssef, said that it is too early to speak about the resolution of the NDC on the form and components of government during the post national dialogue period.

He pointed that the outcome of the different NDC committees should be examined by a five-member conciliation committee after what it will be adopted by the national dialogue general assembly.

“Since this General Assembly is the only decisional body, it is too early to say that an agreement was reached on a national government or else. Even if it is agreed at the committees’ level, the resolution remains contingent on the vote of the General Assembly where any recommendation should be endorsed by 90% of its members” he said.

”If the AG fails to reach an agreement, things will remain as they are,” he stressed.

The ruling party is opposed to the formation of a transitional government or a national unity government where it shares power with the major opposition parties.

However, NCP officials say they can include opposition groups in a government led by the party and chaired by President Omer al-Bashir.
