Sudan’s Northern State is seeking to attract foreign investment as it works to revive its economy and expand international partnerships.
SAF-allied governor Lieutenant General Abdul Rahman Abdul Hamid Ibrahim met Turkish investor Nader Keskari in Dongola on Monday to discuss potential cooperation.
The talks focused on investment opportunities in mining, petroleum exploration and trade between Sudanese states.
The meeting followed the governor’s recent visit to Turkey, where he sought to secure investment commitments from Turkish businesses.
Northern State Investment Director Engineer Omar Ali Saleh said the Turkish investor had expressed serious interest in financing the proposed projects.
Officials said the resource-rich region offers strong investment potential, particularly in the mining sector, alongside opportunities for trade and energy development.
Keskari welcomed the support provided by the local administration, saying the measures would help accelerate the implementation of future projects.
Both sides voiced confidence that the partnership could strengthen economic ties and deliver long-term benefits for Sudan’s Northern State and Turkish investors.
