Sudan’s sanctioned warring faction, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), are preparing a parallel administration for Sudan, on the backing of Nairobi, in what could likely annoy the junta in Khartoum.

A preparatory committee said it has organised a signing ceremony for a political charter for ‘the Government of Peace and Unity’ on Tuesday in Nairobi, and Sudanese media reported RSF leader Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo had already arrived in Nairobi on Sunday for the event.
