Kenyan top Lawyer Senior Counsel Nelson Havi has taken to his twitter account to send a message of Condolence to the people of Sudan.
This followed the overthrowing of the Sudan’s long serving dictator General Hassan Omar Al-Bashir by the Army.
“On behalf of Kenya, I hereby send my message of pole to the people of Sudan for losing such a great leader, General Hassan Omar Al-Bashir. Worry not. Like Egypt and Zimbabwe, you will get another great dictator noting that there is no constitutional democracy structure in place, “Havi posted.
Speaking on state TV, Sudan’s defense Minister Awad Ibn Ouf said the army had decided to oversee a two-year transitional period followed by elections.
He also said a three-month state of emergency was being put in place.
Protests against Mr Bashir, who has governed Sudan since 1989, have been under way for several months.
Mr Ibn Ouf said the “regime” was being removed and Mr Bashir would be kept in a safe place.
He said Sudan’s constitution was being suspended, border crossings were being closed until further notice and airspace was being closed for 24 hours.
Mr Bashir is the subject of an international arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC), which accuses him of organising war crimes and crimes against humanity in Sudan’s western Darfur region.
However it is unclear what will happen to him following his arrest.
