‘Pleased with North-South agreement

Farouk Mohammed Ibrahim, activist and academic coordinator of the Sudanese Organization for Defending Rights and Freedoms (SODRF), said on Sunday that he was pleased with the agreement between North and South Sudan.

He added that the SODRF was seeking to put into place the recent agreements signed by the North and South in the Ethiopian capital of Addis Ababa.

“We are trying to give effect to the convention of four freedoms signed between the two countries. It has been met with loud cheers both in the North and the South,” Mohammed Ibrahim said.

He added that historically, this is a good move because both countries have always shared their border, which is only figurative, along which there has always been communication, trade and grazing.
