Sudan’s presidential Assistant, Ibrahim Ghandour, discussed with the representative of the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) possibility to meet Sudanese opposition.
Sudan’s Government informed the African organization that it would hold meeting with the opponents after the end of presidential and parliamentary elections which began on Monday.
In press statements following his meeting with Sudan’s presidential Assistant, the Ambassador of IGAD countries in Sudan said that he discussed with Ghandour possibility of the meeting between the Government and the opposition, pointing out that Ghandour stressed government’s keenness and readiness to meet with the opposition forces as soon as possible after the election.
The IGAD representative added that African Union High-Level Implementation Panel (AUHIP), headed by Thabo Mbeki, will meet to set a date for the meeting.
Voters converged on polling stations across Sudan for the second day of presidential and parliamentary elections amid heavy security presence.
Polls opened at 8am local time (0500 GMT) amid poor turnout in various polling centers in the first voting hours of the day
The elections, which started on Monday and will last until Wednesday, are the first to be held in Sudan since the independence of the southern part of the country in 2011.
Up to 13 million Sudanese voters are expected to cast their ballots in the three-day polls from 8am to 6pm.
It is widely believed that incumbent President Omar al-Bashir, who has ruled the country for over 25 years, will win the elections.
