Africa-Press<\/a> – South-Sudan<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Protesters in Sudan’s Jouda area of the White Nile State reached an agreement ending protests that blockaded trucks entering South Sudan through Upper Nile State.<\/p>\n

The demonstrators closed the Jouda border crossing north of South Sudan\u2019s Renk area for almost a month demanding the provision of education and health services and the demarcation of the border between the two countries.<\/p>\n

Sudan\u2019s paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) spokesperson Brigadier General Jamal Juma Adam who met the protesters said they had reached an agreement after acknowledging the concerns and would implement the demands.<\/p>\n

Soon after the agreement was reached last week, trucks carrying oil production chemicals and equipment started moving into South Sudan. Abdullah Ibrahim, a spokesman for the protesters, said in a statement to Radio Tamazuj on Saturday that the protests came to an end after the RSF intervened.<\/p>\n

Ibrahim criticized the state and central governments for remaining mum towards their demands and threatened they would resume protests if their demands are not met. Locals officials also confirmed that the RSF and protesters reached an agreement, ending the protests and reopening the border point.<\/p>\n

Colonel Gabriel Dak Mieke, Director of Traffic Police in Renk County, confirmed that traffic is flowing after dozens of trucks crossed into South Sudan at the border.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
