Statement on the birth of South Sudan
South Sudan is free today and 193rd country recognized by the UN, the tie with the north has finally been cut, however, I believe there is also a birth of new challenge today and that is-Will north & d south could work together to address their unresolved disputes and avoid possibility of renewed conflicts? Could North and South Sudan live peacefully side by side and use freedom with responsibility? Indeed, historical times in Africa!
