Sudanese opposition alliance begins second congress in Eritrea

    NAIROBI

    Under the theme “stop the war and build a new Sudan”, the opposition National Sudanese Alliance (NDA) began its second congress at the Red Sea Hotel in Massawa in eastern Eritrea.

    In a report by Eritrean Radio, and monitored by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) on 9 September, the chairman of the NDA, Muhammad Uthman al-Mirghani, gave details of the NDA’s activities and the problems it had encountered over the past five years.
    He hailed the efforts which had been made and continued to be made by the Eritrean people and their government to bring about peace in the Sudan. In addition, he thanked Libya, Egypt and Uganda.

    Three hundred and fifty NDA representatives were participating in the NDA congress. The first congress was held in Asmara in 1995.
