On his need to see. The words. Im christine want to welcome to deja news africa im glad youre chained in a power sharing deal between on the road is an be Opposition Coalition has been signed in sudan its a significant step but theres sort of major obstacle to overcome more on that in a moment because this 1st look at the events that led to this point in december actually government protests that would last for months erupted across sudan the demonstrations were initially over bread price rises but soon shifted to calls for amal bashir to step down then in april bashir was removed from office by the army but protests continued with people demanding civilian rule negotiations bit. In protest leaders and the military would being held there on june the Security Forces moved in on protesters camped outside the military headquarters the army say 61 people were killed but the opposition say is that real number is 128. Now the agreement signed and hard to today establishes a joint civilian military council that will rule the country for a little over 3 years while elections are being organized a military leader will head the 11 Member Council for the 1st 21 months followed by a civilian leader will the next 18. And for more in this life so bring in a ybor him a reporter from sudan recently just before purchases were removed from that military headquarters sitting good to have you so what is the essence of the power sharing agreement thats been signed into law today i mean basically it is that it is a power sharing agreement its by no means an answer to the main civilian demand which is complete civilian rule and a sense of it also is that this marks sort of like the beginning of what could be a transitional period that could lead after 3 years into a democratic turn in sudans history but its also a huge concession on the side of the protesters for the military leaders ok speaking of military leaders this isnt one of them and one of the general speaking today and i want to pick up with you on that. This is a historic moment in sudan and its path and one which creates a start of a new partnership between the armed forces the Rapid Support forces and all the components of sudans ruling regime. And our partners in the your position coalition of forces of freedom and change. What you. Have there is the sense that the military has has had the upper hand here is this a correct assessment of the situation thats a correct assessment i would say and the biggest proof of that is the man who we just heard gave the soundbite the fact that committee who is not the head of the Transitional Military Council is being sort of the face of this transitional deal is the biggest proof anyone needs that the military has the upper hand this is a very unpopular man the rest of the Rapid Support forces that he commands are accused of. Committing. Unheard of violence against the protesters just last month in june 3rd and yet hes still able to be the face of this deal but another another sort of sign that the military is in turn is the duration theyll be in charge for the 1st 21 months as opposed to the civilians will come and the last 18 months but perhaps most significant is how this entire this deal has unraveled the opposition a lot at least one of the members of the opposition has spoken out against this deal so theyve lost their unity in this negotiation as well ok another deal that needs to settle in a document that he signed is what is being called the constitutional declaration that is the next step in this process why is this likely to be a tough for the 1st reason is. In this project in this country a constitutional declaration the whole question of immunity for military leaders are supposed to. Be discussed in detail the protesters have demanded that members of the military council just. Such as how many would not be given political immunity for alleged crimes committed against the protesters but also things like who gets to veto members of the cabinet or the breakdown of the Legislative Council which would be the defacto parliament of sudan in the transitional period all of these details can be very very contentious the military wants to maintain its upper hand the protesters want to save face in front of the people that they represent so we can expect more heated discussions in the coming days or weeks it remains to be seen. Thank you. Sounds off the late South African singer songwriter johnny clegg who has died at the age of 66 plagued defy of segregation laws and was one of the few White Autists openly criticize the apartheid government in than 1970 s. And eightys he died peacefully at his home with his family in johannesburg alter a long battle with pancreatic cancer. They called him the white zulu johnny clegg was one of south africas most celebrated musicians mastering the Language Culture and high kicks of zulu dance. That pitted a white man in a mixed race band he became a symbol of the promise of post apartheid south africa. That could you. Say that i was always a bridge for white people into the possibility of connecting with. Another culture. Not in an academic but since she was engaged and a mode of sharing. Clegg was a musical pioneer blending zulu rhythms from his adopted south africa with western styles he defied racial segregation one of only a few white artists to openly criticize the Apartheid Regime it was more than mere entertainment famously used his music to Campaign Finance and mandelas release many of his songs became anthems for the anti apartheid struggle. A career highlight came in 1997 when mandela then president of south africa surprised clegg during a concert. The ultimate stage partner for a lifetime musical campaign. But you see that. People across south africa have been remembering we caught up with some of. Brothers and point. The way you. Know how he knows how to do is lose it to able to let the evil speak is only. Amazing so he was so fond of those saw what he lost he was a very good artist better than in in terms of appetite so he did a lot with his music he wept with so many people like black people it was it was very good and really weve learned from him as we are growing sort of memories of him is just that he was sort of with his music going cross culture across different areas in part of it and then he got arrested many times but it didnt stop him from doing what he enjoyed doing and breaking down the barriers of a project for more on the legacy of john e.
