Editorial:Government Reshuffle In the news, the Head of Sudan’s Parliamentary Subcommittee on Security and Foreign Affairs Mohammed Al-Hassan Al-Amin revealed that sweeping changes will be made across all levels of government. Al-Amin said that the overhaul will be made primarily for the purpose of accommodating the new generations. He added that the measures taken along with others are meant to address the economic and political challenges in the country. Local media reports in Khartoum indicate that a cabinet shuffle is imminent and will include major ministries such as foreign affairs, interior and defense. However, the public opinion – after witnessing enormous reshuffles in the past – is not interested very much with the nominations because according to experience all the changes are always not positive. The citizens are concerned with the challenges and the pressing issues aspiring for different path to overcome those challenges and issues. The existing broad-base government witnessed active contributions from some of its components who are not members in the ruling party. But it also witness weakness in other institutions. Notwithstanding, the step was an advanced endeavour to lay a foundation for the upcoming governments. The upcoming government should bear in mind that the security tensions and the economic crisis are the major challenges which should be confronted, considering that the existing fire extinguishing policy will not lead to sustainable security or economy In the portfolio of the Sudanese government there are several agreements and understandings with national and foreign parties, on top of which is the Eastern Sudan Peace Agreement (ESPA) and the DDPD. Above all that is the confused relation with South Sudan which requires from the government to make it its top priority to resolve the outstanding issues with tactical maneuvers. We want a national broad government that works in revolutionary spirits according to certain matrix and mandate; otherwise it will be just nonsense.
