The government has assured “the general public, in particular, the families and acquaintances of Ghanaians in Sudan that every effort is being made to ensure the safety of their loved ones until their arrival in Ghana”.
In the past one week, the Republic of Sudan has been gripped by a deadly conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, resulting in avoidable casualties.
Khartoum, the capital, has been the epicentre of the clashes with civilians being most affected.
According to a statement, “Ghana’s Honorary Consulate in Khartoum reports that all of our nationals are safe.
The Ghana Embassy in Cairo, Egypt which has concurrent accreditation to Sudan, is working closely with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration and the Honorary Consulate and are coordinating the evacuation of our nationals, and plans are currently underway to secure their safe passage to Ethiopia.
“The Government of Ghana joins the International Community to appeal to the warring factions to cease fire and allow negotiations to resume for the sake of the peace and safety of the People of Sudan” the statement added.
