The Sudanese News Agency reported the Governor declared in a press conference held in Niala on Sunday that the popular marches that took to the streets in the three Darfur Provinces had demonstrated the will of the people of Darfur to solve their differences through dialogue and not by arms or force He renewed the call to support the AU forces with all possible means in order to carry out their mission in the region perfectly, JANA noted.
