IGAD: Peace agreement is the lifeline and only thread of Hope for South Sudan

[...] “The implementation of the agreement is the lifeline for South Sudan government and the people; it is also the only thread of hope for them to hang on in order to attain peace and Democracy in South Sudan, says H.E Amb. Mahboub Maalim, IGAD Executive Secretary.

"Therefore, I think the implementation of the agreement is a red line for all of us, the implementation must go on unimpeded if we have to make sense of what have been going on for the last couple of years”

Ambassador Mahboub spoke with Radio Miraya reporter Sani Martin on the line from Djibouti and began by explaining why IGAD remains interested in efforts to bring lasting peace to South Sudan.
