The Sudanese have a very formal way of greeting. They will expect the foreigner to respond in similar fashion. The host generally inquires about the visitor, his family, his health and his general well being. After this the Sudanese host will begin to discuss business, if the meeting is to be business one. It is not considered impolite for a newly arrived friend or business associate to interrupt an on-going conversation, complete his business and depart. Conversation then picks up where it left off.

You need to Re-Post this Question in the "Travel" Section under "Africa" or "Sudan"...You will get people who have actually been there answer to it for you--or you will have an actual Sudanese person answer it.
Great Question, and thanks for the sensitivity!
