So, what, Sudan is actually a paradise and these are just a few young trouble makers? It isn't a country that has been plagued for decades by civil war, poverty and famine?

Young men evidently have a greater opportunity to escape their country than mothers with children or older people do, I'm sure the route from Sudan to France is an absolutely brutal voyage and many get lost along the way that we never hear about. Like Vicky says these men may either be married and hoping to send money back or they may be unmarried and therefore not have as many commitments to anyone back home
