Sudan presents a unique case; although President Bashir has been in power since 1989, his reelection earlier this year—when he carried 94 percent of the vote—is technically only his second term in office, following the secession of South Sudan in 2011 after a national referendum. 
Sudani ni mfano tofauti kidogo; ingawa Rais Bashir amekuwa madarakani tangu mwaka 1989, kuchaguliwa kwake tena mapema mwaka huu -huku akipata asilimia 94 ya kura - ndio muhula wake wa pili pekee unaoweza kusema amekuwa madarakani, kufuatia kujitenga kwa Sudani Kusini mwaka 2011 baada ya kura ya maoni.
