This was not done primarily because the Sudan was administered under the Foreign Office, and the influence from Cairo was much against such a step.

He suggested ‘that we the British, who, whatever our failings, are better qualified than any other race, by tradition and taste and training, to lead primitives up the path of civic progress, are going to stand guard here till the South can dispense with a guard, and are not going to see the South dominated by an Arab civilization in Khartoum, which is more alien to them than our own.’ Letter of 5January 1947 from B.G.A. to the Governor of Equatoria Province; Khartoum Conference on the South, March 1965 documents.
