Darfur’s Damanga mourns tragic death of Hassan Yahya Morgan

PRESS RELEASE

September 25, 2005

Damanga Coalition for Freedom and Democracy (Damanga) mourns the loss of
beloved former RMCE treasurer, Mr. Hassan Yahya Morgan, who died in a car
accident in Iowa earlier this week.

Hassan was from the Mastery Area of South Algeneina, Darfur, and was
instrumental in the founding of the Representatives of the Massaleit
Community in Exile (RMCE). He moved to Des Moines, Iowa as a refugee in
2004, where he continued his work to alert the world of the abuses unfolding
in Western Sudan through his support of Damanga.

Damanga is deeply saddened by the loss of one of its great supporters.
“Hassan Morgan was an unusual man, very active, honest and generous” said
Mohamed Yahya, Chairman of Damanga upon learning of the accident, “he worked
hard in his life to raise awareness and highlight the genocide in Darfur
since 1993.”

Mr. Hassan Yahya Morgan will be missed, but his drive and spirit remain an
inspiration to all of us. He is survived by his wife, Mona, and his son,
Khalid.
