August 30, 2025, NYALA, SOUTH DARFUR – On August 30, 2025, Sudan marked a significant milestone in its transitional journey with the formal inauguration of the Presidential Council in Nyala, South Darfur. In a historic and symbolic ceremony, General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, took the constitutional oath, formally assuming the role of Chairman of the Council. He was joined by Abdelaziz al-Hilu, who was sworn in as his deputy, alongside the other members of the newly formed body.
This event marked a decisive break from centralized rule and represented a significant step towards the decentralized system of governance envisioned in the Transitional Constitutional Charter. The choice of Nyala as the seat of this government underscores a powerful commitment to shifting power and resources away from the capital and towards the regions that have long been at the heart of the nation’s conflict, offering a new promise of inclusion and shared prosperity for all Sudanese citizens.
This development aims to foster national unity, stability, and a more inclusive political system for all Sudanese citizens.
