{{Sudan\u2019s South Kordofan State is hosting 39th Cecafa Kagame club championships that starts today despite conflicting reports that the states city had been under attack from rebels in the area.}} <\/p>\n
The country\u2019s officials however, urged people from the region and Sudan, who \u201cbelieve in peace\u201d, to ignore the reports and attend the matches as the \u201csecurity was tight\u201d. <\/p>\n
The Cecafa Secretary General Nicholas Musonye said that people, who had pulled out their teams and later wanted to return, were desperate and would do anything to sabotage the event. <\/p>\n
A new 25,000 seater facility will host the opening match between El Hilal Kadugli and URA FC from Uganda. <\/p>\n
So far 7 teams are in Sudan as Cecafa declined the re-application of Tanzania and South Sudan sides to be included in the fixtures.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile El Fasher\u2019s Governor Mohamed Yousuf Kibir is preparing two venues that will host Group A and B matches on Wednesday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
