Southern Sudan Referendum

Sudan may just witness the return of war if the referendum on the seceding of Southern Sudan delays according to Sudan's comprehensive peace agreement mediator General Lazarus Sumbeiywo. He says the Southern Sudanese are rearing to go on with the referendum scheduled for the 9th of January, amidst a glaring lack of political willpower on the part of the ruling national congress party. And as Sylvia Chebet reports, an inter-governmental authority on development summit to discuss the Sudan referenda has been shifted to Ethiopia, for fear of irking the international criminal court with president Omar al-Bashir's presence in the country.

So, the referendum was held and the Sudanese voted 98% for separation. My question is when will Southern Sudan officially separate from the northern part of Sudan? Because I live in Croatia, so, on the news, they just said that the referendum is going to be held and no one ever mentioned South Sudan ever again, so I hope that you guys from Africa would know more...

@kushotto well spoken, if they never thought of the black africans as equals then why try to keep with them as one country?or is it that they're afraid there wont be no one else left to discriminate?

On my own opinion Sudan as one nation will need a very long time to blend, but for now, give the black africans a chance to rebuild and have a country that gives them a sense of belonging
