Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>Presidential Affairs Minister, Barnaba Marial Benjamin, called on foreign envoys to support the peace agreement.<\/p>\n

Bernaba added that the government is committed to securing parts of the country undergoing occasional conflicts.<\/p>\n

He added that many cases of inter-communal violence experienced in the country are not politically motivated, the government has said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe communities that are fighting have nothing to do with the political issues. These are community problems. [They are] Cattle rustling and many other revenge killings from families and not political,\u201d Marial said.<\/p>\n

He spoke at the Indian embassy during the official celebration of India\u2019s 76th Independence Day, on Monday.<\/p>\n

Barnaba further called on the peace partners to put hand in the implementation of the agreement and speed up where the principles might be slow.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo support the peace process, come in help us where we are going slow,\u201d he urged.<\/p>\n

He assured the ambassadors that South Sudanese are implementing the agreement<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I can assure you is that we are implementing the peace process; we are doing it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He added that the implementation of the peace agreement is slow but they parties are sure they will finish it within the required timeline.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe political will is there. Our people are tired of war.<\/p>\n

\u201cWwe are not going back to war,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He added that the 38 political parties have agreed to bring peace in the country.<\/p>\n

Barnaba added that President Salva Kiir and the First Vice President, Dr Riek Machar, have been meeting during the Friday cabinet meetings to ensure that government functions and the fast-tracking of the peace agreement is on track.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would like to assure the population here to feel at home; there is no more war,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

In the past two months, South Sudan has been experiencing a wave of inter-communal violence in parts of Eastern Equatoria, Warrap State and Abyei.<\/p>\n

Clashes between pastoralist communities and the host communities in parts of Eastern Equatoria State such as Nimule and Magwi had been on the rise.<\/p>\n
