Two months after his appointment as the Sudanese prime minister and his stay in Port Sudan, the temporary administrative capital, returned Kamel Idris To Khartoum, which destroyed the war, its service and governmental institutions, and made an inspection tour that included a number of bridges, water stations and government headquarters, as well as visits that included symbols of society and journalists.
Idris seemed optimistic about a bright hope that brings Khartoum back to its previous era and that its institutions would be returned as it was, especially those that were destroyed by the war, such as the sectors of electricity, water, transportation and education.
The Sudanese Prime Minister told the island that the executive institutions will return to Khartoum within a period not exceeding 6 months.
He also explained that citizens can gradually return to Khartoum from the moment, as water and electricity services will be returned to Khartoum as soon as possible.
The Prime Minister added that the police will undertake security in all Sudanese cities.
Fix the bridge
The war that took place in Khartoum over a period of two months between the army and the rapid support forces led to the destruction of a number of bridges in Khartoum and fully paralyzed its movement, including a bridge of Shambat and the Halfaya linking Khartoum Bahri and Omdurman.
There are 21 bridges in the Sudanese capital, and the Prime Minister stressed the importance of returning these bridges to its former era, as the Khartoum government demanded to reform them as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, a government official in the state of Khartoum said that working to restore the Halfaya Bridge needs 3 months, revealing the pledges of the Egyptian government to reform the Halfaya and Shambat bridges in a period not exceeding 5 months.
Water and electricity
Government statistics in Sudan indicate that the electricity and water sector is one of the most destructive sectors due to the war, as more than 10 major stations in Khartoum have stopped, which are stations that water more than 60% of the Khartoum population.
Restart the airport
The Sudanese Prime Minister visited the Khartoum International Airport, which has stopped working since April 2023.
In press statements, he pledged to return the airport to the service before the end of this year, and demanded the airport authorities to expedite his return to service and better than it was.
During his visit, Idris also inspected a number of symbols of society who did not leave Khartoum despite the fire of the war, including the Sudanese singer Abu Arki Al -Bakhit and the writer Youssef Abdel -Mann, who are in the city of Omdurman.
Government formation
Idris began appointing his government ministers in batches, which he started with the Ministry of Interior and Defense, then Health, Agriculture, Irrigation, and Higher Education.
On July 11, he appointed 5 ministers for finance, justice, federal rule, trade and industry, religious affairs and endowments.
After 4 days, 5 ministers of media, livestock, minerals, social welfare, infrastructure and transportation were announced, and thus the number rose to 15 out of 22 ministers that the government is scheduled to consist.
Many Sudanese built their hopes on this government, as the first to be formed by a civilian prime minister with full powers, according to its announcement.
