        Sudan tribune reported today that some Of the SS opposition groups were threatened by sudanese security forces to sign the SS governance forum in Khartoum. Peace must originate from mutual respect and national priority. What we see here is greed for money and power at its peak

        How many times do they sign the peace deal per month? They've been signing it since June I guess.

        These TWO south Sudan leaders are a disgrace to entire south Sudanese people....imagine Bashir is the mediator after the Sudan gave them independence after a long struggle!!...seems they were not ready for independence

        From my point of view,this "peace deal"will not be there for long owing to the presence of both @KagutaMuseveni and Bashir.These two men are warlords and they know nothing about peace except in paper!!We know the roles @KagutaMuseveni has been playing in Kenyan politics.Puga

        One of them had a good wordplay in his speech when he said "We want leaders to be elected by a number of votes in the ballot box not by a number of bullets in barrel box" I hope I got it right😎 Anyways, i hope this peace deal lasts for real this time around. God bless Africa!
