He described the opposition’s position like a student who wants to boycott school halls by closing those halls before the others.
About threat of non-recognition of elections by the international community, the Sudanese official said what interests them is the recognition of Sudanese people who give legitimacy and not foreign States
The opposition Now Reform Movement initiated on Wednesday an official campaign for a boycott of the elections which the Sudanese Government intends to hold by next April.

The government says it would not risk the legitimacy of the system which its constitutional term will end April
