Canada’s Advice To It’s Citizens Trapped In Sudan

Meanwhile the Canadian government has told its citizens in Sudan to “shelter in a safe place”, keep their phones charged, doors and windows locked and “consider leaving the country if there’s a safe means to do so”.

This is difficult advice to keep, considering that electricity supply equipment has been damaged, as reported by BBC.

The outbreak of war in Sudan appears to have taken many governments by surprise. It appears fighting is very fierce and governments that usually speedily evacuate their citizens are finding it dificult.

The United States has so far concentrated on evacuating just it’s diplomatic staff and has closed it’s embassy in Sudan. But its private citizens are still very much there.

According to the BBC the paramilitary force fighting the government army has agreed to allow save evacuation of foreigners.

What do you think can be done to reduce the high incidence of wars in Africa, which endangers the Right to Development of the people?

For me, I believe governments and people should cooperate and understand each other more in a way that promotes fairness.

  1. It is very sad indeed, for there to be a peaceful co existence in Africa, there must be tolerance and effective communication through dialogue, this would go a long way in curbing the outbreak of war
