The residents of Oseif in Halayeb locality, near the border of Sudan’s Red Sea state with Egypt complain of electricity blackouts, while Port Sudan’s water crisis has now lasted for months.
Mohammed El Hassan Okeir, one of the notables of Oseif, told Radio Dabanga that most of the city districts are living in total darkness as the electricity generators have gone out of service.
He said that a large number of electricity pylons of the East Reconstruction Project have been blown-down by strong winds, adding that the East Fund promised to supply electricity next year.
He attributed the service crisis in the city to the negligence of the Red Sea state Government.
