AU tells Sudan military council to hand power to civilians within 60 days

ADDIS ABABA, 01 May. - (ANA)  - The African Union (AU) said on Tuesday that Sudan’s military rulers should hand over power to a civilian-led transitional authority within 60 days.

In a statement, the AU said it noted “with deep regret” that the military had not stepped aside and handed power to civilians within a 15-day period set by the AU last month. The 60 days were a final extension for Sudan’s Transitional Military Council to hand over power to civilians, the AU said.  - (ANA) -
