West Darfur rallies back Tasis government
Leaders and citizens in El Geneina voiced support for the Transitional Peace Government's agenda for change.
Rallies in El Geneina, West Darfur, saw leaders and citizens express strong support for the Tasis administration and its reform agenda. Participants, including many young people and women, said the turnout showed recovery, stability, and popular backing for the government. The Sudan Founding Alliance (Tasis) is a coalition formed by the RSF and other groups.
Tijani Al-Tahir Karshoum, head of West Darfur's civil administration, stated the rallies rejected the old Sudan marked by injustice and resource plunder, signaling recovery and strengthening security. He condemned attacks on civilians in Darfur and Kordofan, urging international protection and an investigative commission. Ibrahim Fadl, head of the Qimam Alliance, called the event a continuation of Sudan's revolutions, rejecting the current government's actions against civilians.
Finance Minister Carlo John said the participation of youth and women showed genuine recovery in West Darfur. He outlined the Tasis Alliance's economic plan, which focuses on reducing living costs, improving essential services, and providing free education. The economic program emphasizes fiscal decentralization, granting regions more financial and resource management powers, a key part of dismantling the centralized system in place since 1956.
