Samson: Deputy for the law: The Sudanese are facing a difficult economic test, and we will press to reduce the dollar
10/19/2022
The representative of the State of Law coalition, Aref Al-Hamami, believes that the Prime Minister-designate, Muhammad Shia Al-Sudani, is facing a difficult economic test, while revealing the collection of signatures to pressure towards reducing the exchange rates of the dollar.
Hamami said; For the program {Al-Mastra} broadcast by Al-Furat satellite channel tonight, that: “So far, officially, the Saturday session has not been set by the Presidency of the House of Representatives, and we have not officially been informed of its contract, and the schedule has not yet been decided; but more than 50% of the ministries have been completed in the cabinet in general, and the sensitivity of the stage requires Scrutinizing the candidates for appointment, but there is no harm in voting for them and then joining the rest of the ministries.”
And he expected, that “the portfolios of {oil, higher education, labor and social affairs} will be from the share of the law coalition,” adding that “the Sudanese have a good space to choose their ministers and there is no pressure on him and the legitimate scramble for positions aims to serve the citizen.”
Al-Hamami noted, ”
Commenting on the return of the Vice-President of the Republic, Al-Hamami explained, “It is a constitutional entitlement and imposed by law, and the position is important and cannot be kept vacant as it is a legal violation, and social benefits funds can be removed from the three presidencies, but the names of these positions have not been resolved until now.”
However, he added, “As for the adoption of the oil and gas law, it has become an urgent necessity after the final and binding decision of the Federal Court. Oil revenues must be distributed equitably to all provinces, and there must be solutions.“
Al-Hamami concluded, “The region’s difference from the governorates of the center and the south is by a single decision. The problems of these governorates are linked to the center by the routine and the miserable administrative system in addition to the existing corruption, and the coalition of state administration with its multiple forces is responsible for the success and failure of the government, which will also be a criterion for holding early elections.” LIN

MilitiaMan: The collection of signatures is being applied to pressure in reducing the exchange rate of the dollar whereby increasing the value of the Iraq Dinar would be the reciprocal of that. Interesting again the mix the seating of the cabinet in with the exchange rate and the adoption of the oil and gas law. The latter is an urgent necessity after the final binding decision of the Federal Court. The needs of the citizens are front and center, as the oil revenues must be distributed equitably to all provinces. ~ All very timely and to the points.. imo ~ MM
