Following is a response from Senior Sampling Specialist, Mahmoud Elkasabi:

In general, you need to check the sampling design appendix to figure out the stratification variables and then construct it in a proper way.

Regarding the 1988 EDHS survey, see page 174 in the final report: "All list of PSUs allocated according to governorate and residential sector (urban/rural)" This means that similar to the other surveys, governorates by urban/rural were used as design strata for the 1988 EDHS.
