C5 Plus, Tumaini, and the Road Back to Peace Implementation in South Sudan

On Radio Miraya Roundtable, host Yash Garang discussed approaches for overcoming the implementation trap in South Sudan’s peace process, as delays and renewed tensions continue to affect the implementation of the Revitalized Agreement. He was joined by Moses Deng Bol, Patrick Godi, and Juma Mabior Marial. The guests said mistrust among the parties, weak dialogue mechanisms, and renewed fighting have undermined progress, while the African Union’s renewed engagement through the C5 Plus and efforts to harmonize parallel initiatives, including Tumaini, could help rebuild momentum by pushing for inclusive political dialogue, cessation of hostilities, and practical steps toward elections such as security arrangements, legal reforms, and support to election institutions.
