Rizeigat cattle are beginning to move from Sudan’s East Darfur state into South Sudan’s Northern Bahr el Ghazal state for grazing, said Rizeigat chief leader Mahmoud Musa Madibo.
Madibo said he expects a conference to be held with the Dinka Malual tribe of Northern Bahr el Ghazal in the coming days to review previous agreements to allow the Rizeigat pastoralists to use Northern Bahr El Ghazal land for grazing.
Rizeigat herders traditionally travel into Northern Bahr el Ghazal each dry season to find grass and water for their animals.
