Sudan’s Army Chief Embarks On Diplomatic Mission To Turkey Amid Ongoing Power Struggle....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
On Wednesday, Sudan’s army chief, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, embarked on his fifth international trip since late August in a bid to gain recognition and legitimacy amid a power struggle with his former deputy. General Burhan, who has effectively been in charge of Sudan since leading a coup in 2021, is set to engage in discussions with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, focusing on “enhancing bilateral relations,” as stated by the Sudanese leader’s office.
Previously confined to army headquarters in Khartoum due to the conflict between his loyalists and paramilitary Rapid Military Support Forces (RSF) led by his former deputy Mohamed Hamdan Daglo, General Burhan has relocated to Port Sudan along the Red Sea coast. His recent diplomatic visits to Egypt, South Sudan, Qatar, and Eritrea are seen as efforts to bolster his credentials in anticipation of potential negotiations to end the ongoing conflict.
The conflict, which has already claimed nearly 7,500 lives, according to estimates from the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project, showed no signs of abating, especially in critical areas like Khartoum and the Darfur region. Witnesses reported civilian casualties resulting from airstrikes on two markets in Nyala, the capital of South Darfur state. General Burhan’s regular army is the only party in the conflict with an air force.
On Tuesday, RSF fighters shelled North Khartoum, resulting in the deaths of at least 17 civilians, according to witnesses. The war has displaced over five million people, including one million who have sought refuge across international borders, according to United Nations data.

“‘I Deeply Regret My Words’: Borno Commissioner Backtracks And Apologizes For Controversial ‘Break Finger’ Remark”
The Borno State Commissioner for Poverty Alleviation, Youths and Sports, Hon. Saina Buba, has formally retracted and apologized for a controversial statement he made during a public engagement hosted by the City Boy Movement in Maiduguri. The commissioner had previously drawn intense public backlash and criticism following remarks where he threatened, “Whoever shows us a finger, we will show him a finger… Whoever dares to show us a finger again, we will break his finger.” Although he initially defended the comment by claiming it was not directed at the opposition and asserted that an apology was unnecessary, the commissioner has since reversed his stance.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
During a press briefing with journalists at his office in Maiduguri, Hon. Buba completely withdrew the remark and issued an apology to anyone offended by the rhetoric. He explicitly noted that his words were never meant to infringe upon or undermine the constitutional rights of Borno State citizens regarding their freedom of choice and association under the Nigerian Constitution. Furthermore, he clarified that his statements were not meant to be interpreted literally, but due to the ongoing public anxiety and concern, a formal retraction was necessary.
The commissioner also emphasized that his fiery rhetoric does not reflect the core principles of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) or the governance style and administration of Governor Babagana Umara Zulum. He reiterated that the state government stays firmly dedicated to safeguarding the rights of all residents and upholding democratic values.
