]]> Sudan’s military junta has signed a power-sharing deal with leaders of pro-democracy protestors.

Hopefully ending months of turmoil since the overthrow of President Omar Al Bashir in April, it will rotate military and civilian government for three years in the run up to democratic elections.

The power-sharing deal was inked in Khartoum after all night talks.

Originally meant to have been signed on Saturday, it was delayed by misgivings and the killing of a demonstrator by militia led by Mohamed Hemeti Dagolo.

He has described today’s  signing as a historic moment for Sudan.

The deal will leave power with the military for the first 21 months.

The generals will then hand over to the civilian umbrella body for the final 18 months of the transition.
