The new governor of the Sudanese state of South Darfur is expected to be appointed imminently, with the figure likely to be from a military or security background, a senior governmental source has told Arabstoday. The decision to appoint a security official to the post is due to the tense situation in the region, and the growing threat from armed groups, the source added. In a related development, local authorities from the South Darfur town of Rhid Bordy have announced a curfew and imposed a state of emergency following intense clashes between tribal leaders. Local ruler, Musa Mukhtar Sameeh, said that the situation was under control, and appealed to the warring parties to resolve disputes through dialogue.
