Rift widens in Sudan’s Umma Party as acting leader rejects ouster, dissolves key body
[SUDANTRIBUNE] A power struggle within Sudan’s National Umma Party (NUP) intensified on Tuesday after the party’s acting leader rejected a move to oust him and dissolved the body that initiated his removal, escalating a dispute over a pact with RSF-aligned groups.
Late on Monday, the NUP’s Presidential Institution withdrew confidence from acting party president Fadlallah Burma Nasir for signing an agreement with groups aligned with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) to establish a parallel government. The institution appointed Mohamed Abdullah Al-Douma as his replacement.
On Feb. 22, Burma Nasir, representing the NUP, signed a founding charter alongside other armed, political, and civil organizations. The charter endorsed the establishment of a parallel government, a secular state, and the right to self-determination if secularism is not enshrined in a transitional or permanent constitution.
In a move threatening the unity of the long-established party, Burma Nasir issued a decision Tuesday evening terminating the mandates of the vice presidents, presidential assistants, and advisors, effectively dissolving the Presidential Institution. He also announced plans to reconstitute the Presidential Institution on “new foundations” and to consult with the head of the Political Bureau and the Secretary-General on convening an extraordinary general congress.
Burma Nasir stated that the actions taken in the name of the Presidential Institution were contrary to the party’s constitution and did not represent the institutions stipulated within it.
