Sudan denies UN announcement of new agreement on Abyei
September 14, 2011 (KHARTOUM) – The Sudanese government on Wednesday dismissed last week’s announcement by a senior United Nations official of a deal reached between Sudan and South Sudan on withdrawing troops from the contested region of Abyei.
He further said that even though the Khartoum had originally said it would withdraw its forces when an administration was in place in Abyei, it has now dropped that condition.
But a Sudanese official told the government run Sudanese Media Center (SMC) website that Mulet’s assertions were inaccurate.
Omar Suleiman, a member of Sudan’s negotiating team told SMC that a meeting took place only for the oversight committee comprised of representatives from the two sides to follow up on the implementation of the interim protocol on Abyei administration signed last June.
He said the two countries reached an understanding on the speedy formation of the executive committee for Abyei administration, the legislative council, setting up the agenda for the committee and mechanisms for decision making process.
Sudan and the newly independent state of South Sudan claim sovereignty over Abyei. To end this dispute a referendum was supposed to be held in the oil-rich district last January. However, the two parties failed to conduct it because of disagreement on who should participate in the vote.
Last May the Sudan Armed Forces (SAF) took the area by force and dismissed the civilian administration, in response, they say, to an attack by Southern armed groups.
In June the two sides agreed to allow Ethiopian peacekeepers under the UN to oversee SAF’s withdrawal and deploy in Abyei. The United Nations Interim Security Force for Abyei (UNISFA) has a stronger, Chapter VII, mandate unlike its predecessor the United Nations Mission in Sudan (UNMIS)

I think the NCP leaders are all made or they are just war mongers because they keep on changing the goal posts everyday and they don’t respect agreements and diplomacy.

What is problem with Abeyei?! Even the Dinka will vote to be part Sudan. Today 40-45 families cross the border from the Ross to Sudan on daily basis. This is only in White Nile state. Who will want to die of hunger?!

Are you dreaming or you are drunk my brother? do you mean Dinka or Donkey? it is 40-45 families of Donkeys NOT ”Dinka” which cross the border from Ross to Sudan on daily basis and if at all they would be offered a choice they will vote to be part of Sudan.Yes they are right to do that because they are:1. muslims 2. We don’t keep Donkeys,so they are free to wander 3. We don’t have those rottened smelly feaces of Arabs which they eat,so they will not want to die of hunger.

Dinka are not Donkeys. I am afraid that you might need blow a certain type of ballon to check of alchol in your blood, probably you need a further test to asses the accurate level of alchol in your blood! Am sure you drunk, but has to be certain of your alchol blood level. Unfortunately I donnot drink.Confusing Dinka with means you alchol blood level is quite high!
Yes 40-45 southern familie cross the borders to white nile state only and that is on daily basis! We are not counting those who are crossing to blue nile, Kordofan, Darfur and elsewhere!The reason is obvious , people are dying of hunger and there is no security.Not only that there are 17000 southerners stuck in Kosti since before the referundum! All the money was looted by a jallabi who claims to have a logistic company and own the news a news paper called Ajrad Al Hurria!
Enjoy your beer and asylum man, these people not like you they are just looking for survival!

Omar Bashir who is a wanted criminal by the (ICC) is not ready to battle “SPLA” over Abyei. He coudn’t win in Darker, nor in the Blue Nile. He could’t even leave his own country. He could end up in a hole like “Sadam Hussein”, or otherwise, in hiding like”Muamar Kadaffi”. His days are numbered, as the number of the virgins in heaven. And because he is an Arab leader his spring is near, as you mark my word.
Dinka stupid majority
