Citizens in Abu-Jabra locality in Sudan’s East Darfur state have reportedly boycotted the ongoing voter registration for the referendum on Darfur’s administrative status.
Multiple sources from the area told Radio Tamazuj that local residents have completely boycotted the ongoing registration on Darfur’s status in the coming 10 days.
The Sudanese government announced that citizens will vote on whether or not the region will keep its five states or reunite as one entity with a semi-autonomous administration.
Darfur referendum commission head Omar Ali Gemaa had announced in a news conference that the poll will take place April 11-13.
