Women tea sellers struggle against odds

KHARTOUM, 25 October (IRIN) - On a quiet street in Emina el Bahri, a small town just 10 km from the Sudanese capital Khartoum, Sada Adam sits on the porch of a small shop and sells cups of tea to the locals.

After a long working day, she will have made only US $4 with which she will attempt to feed her four children. "This life is very difficult. But what can I do? There is no other way for me to make money," said Adam.

The sole supporter of her children since her husband left for Darfur two years ago, Adam works from early morning to late in the evening, seven days a week.

"They [local police] come and take all of my tools. They take my pot, stools and spoons and destroy them," she said.
