Da Force
Though this initiative by the UN is 200,00 human lives and 2.5 million refugees late, I hope there will be a turn around and the region will eventually receive a long overdue paycheck from the new found oil and mineral wealth and the gains from trade with China.
Though the task ahead is delicate and enormous, my hopes are high and I have my fingers crossed. I am rooting for the real Sudan. Dafur needs your voice more than ever before, now is not the time to sit back.
Save dafur.
Maybe the interest of Nigerians would be piqued if only we realized the sheer volume of migration and inter marriage that exist between Nigeria and Sudan. Word on the street is that Omar's mum is Nigerian.

FINALLY! They're finally going to take a step, well i'd say better late than never, just sorry for the lost souls.
Well see if they actually deploy the troops toand armament to go in there. Until they're actually there, we can't get too excited.
I hope the peace keeping force is lead by the AU and it's troops with the UN providing back up troops and air support. White men on the African Continent with guns can be a dangerous thing as well.
Word on the street is that Omar's mum is a Nigerian?!
Ummmh, that explains why and I'm not appalled to see a Nigerian leader creating havoc in another country...we surely need to Save Darfur NOW!
Thank God.
But still, it is a long road to recovery but if we can start the healing now...very good.
Certainly a step in the right direction... I just hope and pray God takes the steps with them and they shall overcome!
Let us keep our fingers crossed. Considering the fact that whenever there is a large contingent of soldiers needed in most African conflicts, the majority tend to be Nigerians, let us all hope for the best.
I felt great relief too.I just pray Omar won't change his mind. Its possible.
