Kenyan president calls for urgent ceasefire in Sudan
GOOBJOOG NEWS | NAIROBI: Parties pushing for stability in Sudan have been asked to work together for fruitful realisation of their plan.
Kenyan president William Ruto said IGAD and Jeddah Processes must consolidate their efforts to facilitate the realisation of permanent ceasefire in the country.
He said the union will skilfully push for access to humanitarian assistance, protection of refugees as well as the reactivation of the Political Process.
This, he explained, will lay the foundation for lasting peace in Sudan.
He was speaking on Saturday night when he held a telephone consultation with the Chairman of the Transitional Sovereign Council of Sudan General Abdel Fattah Abdelrahman al-Burhan.
In his capacity as the Chair of the IGAD Quartet of Heads of States on Sudan, Ruto also spoke with the President of Chad General Mahamet Idriss Deby Itno.
The two leaders agreed on the acceleration of the restoration of normalcy in Sudan and support to refugee-hosting countries.
