supposed to start to the. streets are quite. the day before. but some. folks a number of. government institutions are open some of them partially open. but the streets are. quite. the normal before in the lead up to this in the lead up to sunday what sort of conversations were being had with people that you were discussing this with obviously there's a great deal of concern amongst the public certainly in the capital and beyond the capital in sudan about every move that they make whether it be on the streets or off it. the main concern of the

people. is regarding the general serapis of the electricity the paper is like a grocery store stores are. functioning and operating then this the general disobedience will be of little concern today because they need the services. to know how the electricity is functioning. in other cities. also the difficulties over heating oil so in terms of the basic services that are still running ok. if that's the case with basic services sorry to interrupt you that's the case with basic services you say operating as normal and i can appreciate that it's difficult for you to.

you have to be very careful about the words you use on a live television program like this because you are in khartoum but obviously there needs to be a conversation does that not on the political level now regardless of civil disobedience in the public domain between those members of the you might the opposition or civil society with the military that's currently in charge in comping down anybody that decides to stand up to them here but. the. let me also remind you that was a living will by words because. came through different roads late this morning when i saw these big trees and. in. my house and in the office the electricity is operating we'll so this is this is a fact. also the other. question because being they were safe.
