Sudan’s NUP leader blasts government over Darfur crisis
The National Umma Party (NUP) leader a;-Sadiq al-Mahdi criticized the government’s policies in the western region of Darfur saying it has worked to tear the social fabric and transforming the conflict from a local traditional one to a national and international issue which led to a deteriorating situation despite the conclusion of bilateral agreements with some armed factions.
He argued that the Abuja and Doha agreements have failed to bring peace because they did not address the root causes of the problem, the lack of security and non-fulfillment of donor promises.
