President Cyril Ramaphosa and Namibian President Hage Geingob have called for an immediate ceasefire in Sudan.
“It should be subjected to negotiations and we would be looking to the Intergovernmental Authority on Development to give the lead in this matter so that Igad and the AU, together as they are besieged with this matter to ensure the safety of life, that there is a ceasefire and an immediate process of negotiations.“It is clearly, and truly not necessary, for two armed forces in one country to engage in a conflict that could soon grow to be a civil war that could engulf the entire country.
That should be avoided and if there is a place where the guns must be silenced, it is in Sudan, now, and that is why we are calling for a ceasefire,” Ramaphosa said.Geingob said: “When diplomacy fails and dialogue is not pursued, countries go to war. One does not make peace with a friend, you make peace with your enemies.
