KHARTOUM/CAIRO (Reuters) - Saleha Adam had hoped things would get better after the ousting of Sudan's veteran leader Omar al-Bashir, and that more food and aid might start flowing into her ramshackle camp on the outskirts of Khartoum.

But a year and a half on, prices are still soaring. And an international package of support for the poorest households like Adam's has been delayed, leaving the government racing to stave off more economic turmoil.
