Egypt’s President Abdelfattah El Sisi says African leaders have decided to give Sudan’s transitional military councilor time to make way for a civilian government.

He was speaking at the end of a summit conference he hosted on the Sudan cricis, attended by President Cyril Ramaphosa and four other Africa heads of state.

The decision taken at the Cairo summit removes the April 30 deadline imposed by the African Union on Sudanese leaders who deposed President Omar Al Bashir in a coup 12 days ago.

Under AU regulations, Sudan faces exclusion from the continental body for implementing an unconstitutional change of government.

The summit declared Africa’s desire to find a comprehensive democratic system.

This must embolden the generals who have already ordered the pro-democracy demonstrators to remove their barricades outside military headquarters in Khartoum.
