SPLM urge government to resolve land ownership problems

The Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM) candidate Ahmed Ali Atim in Goghana constituency (South Darfur) urged the National Congress to solve the problem of Hawakir (traditional land ownership). Recently problems arose between Tulus and Gereida localities in the areas of Goghana and Sonte claiming 54 deaths. Eight of the victims were found in a mass grave. Atim told Radio Dabanga that the National Congress did not honour their promise regarding Gereida locality. He added with a request to bring those responsible for the recent fighting to justice.
