Abdulsalami Abubakar

And, uh, the African Union felt that, uh, this high level panel, uh, should continue as an implementation panel both for Darfur and for the two, uh, Sudans.

Uh, just for the record, the panel, uh, was chaired by the former president of South Africa, Thabo Mbeki, and members of the panel included the former president of Nigeria, Abdulsalami Abubakar, as well as also the former president of Burundi, President Pierre Buyoya.

Thanks, Abdul.

So it started off as a panel on Darfur and then expanded to Sudan and then after the separation, uh, had the mandate of Sudan and South Sudan.
