Johannesburg, Rajab 16, 1437, Apr 23, 2016, SPA -- Residents in Darfur region of Sudan have voted in favor of it remaining divided into five states, instead of uniting into a single entity, more than a decade after the beginning of a conflict that has killed and displaced many, according to dpa. Nearly 98 per cent of voters backed Darfur's multi-state status in the April 11-13 referendum, Sudan News Agency quoted officials as saying Saturday. --SPA 03:07 LOCAL TIME 00:07 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
