The Chairman of the Sovereignty Council and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, General Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan, emphasized the need to review civil service laws, stating that the multiplicity and frequent changes of laws have significantly harmed the state.
During his address at the opening session of the Civil Service Conference organized by the Ministry of Labor and Administrative Reform on Tuesday, he stressed that the next stage requires strict adherence to administrative regulations and laws. He affirmed the necessity for civil service employees to keep pace with modern administrative technologies, adding, “We will not allow the destruction of state institutions or damage to public property.”
Al-Burhan paid tribute to the martyrs of the Battle of Dignity from the armed forces, their supporting units, and volunteers, praising their immense sacrifices for the pride and dignity of the Sudanese people.
He dismissed claims that the ongoing war is targeting specific ethnic groups as sheer lies, affirming that the battle is against the terrorist Rapid Support Forces militia and all who bear arms alongside them. “Our message to all citizens is not to believe these lies,” he said, explaining that the armed forces encompass all Sudanese people from different backgrounds and tribes without discrimination.
The Chairman of the Sovereignty Council condemned a heinous crime committed by the Dagalo militia in the Salha area of southern Omdurman, calling it a shameful crime against civilians. He confirmed that the armed forces will continue the Battle of Dignity until victory is achieved.
Al-Burhan also refuted rumors that Islamists are running the war effort from Port Sudan, labeling such claims as false and mere propaganda. He stated that the armed forces are national institutions that do not adhere to partisanship or narrow affiliations, and that they are fighting for the safety and security of the nation and its people.
