Signature Campaign for Peace and Security in Darfur

We the undersigned Africans and friends of Africa hereby petition the African Union (AU) at its historic Summit, in Accra, Ghana, July 2007 to take all necessary steps in collaboration with the United Nations to bring to an immediate end to the genocide ravaging Darfur.

The rape of women and girls, the burning and destruction of villages and settlements, and the consequent mass displacement of millions and murder of tens of thousands, including women and children, in Darfur constitute an affront to humanity and an indictment of leadership on the continent. The people of Darfur have a right to life, peace and security. The AU must act decisively and deploy adequate troops with effective military ware to protect the people of Darfur from the murderous forces supported by the Sudanese government. In today’s global world, it is impermissible for the AU to look on helpless as the genocide in Darfur continues.

The people of Darfur have an inalienable right to life, security, peace and development.

Join the campaign to end the genocide in Darfur! Send your name, address, email address and institutional affiliation (if any) Citizens for New Ghana at citizensghana at yahoo.com, to add your name to the petition.
