'''Revolutionary squads guard Sudan's bakeries to battle corruption''

But flour and fuel are still being siphoned off onto the black market, contributing to shortages that have dampened spirits six months into a 39-month transition and left a weak civilian government struggling to respond.

“We are monitoring what enters and leaves the bakery - the flour before it is made into bread, the bread that comes out, who it goes to, at what time and why,” said 20-year-old student Mohaned Babeker, standing watch at the bakery in the Khartoum neighborhood of Arkawit.

The volunteers have already caught wheat or bread being smuggled out of bakeries in Arkawit – in one case 2,000 loaves for sale at triple the price outside Khartoum, Babeker said. The culprits got a police warning.

We toppled a dictator, and still no bread. What fucking nation-state can't provide their nation with bread. I don't care how much corruption there is, bread should be an automatic commodity for any citizen regardless if they are developed nation or not.
