For Mudawi - A Poem
For Mudawi - On 22 December Dr Mudawi Ibrahim Adam was summoned to the court in Khartoum and sentenced to one year in prison and a fine of £3000.
Dr Mudawi is Director of SUDO (the Sudan Social Development Organisation) and had been previously charged with financial mismanagement. Even though the court had dismissed the charges against him due to lack of evidence the Government intervened and insisted on the imposition of a prison term and fine.
This poem was written by Andrew Anderson, Deputy Director of Front Line who has worked closely with Dr Mudawi
The prison walls throw
in stark relief
the fragility of a good man
against the system
The power of quiet integrity
shining out brighter
uncaged by the banal brutality
of incarceration
The weak seek to repress
in fear of the truth
clinging vainly to the corrupt
trappings of office
And the whisper of justice breathes
over Khartoum
it's promise entwined in the lament
of days lost, but a future gained
Set free my friend Mudawi
and hope for Sudan
