And from Monday, registration for party members will start. Our doors are opened to all citizens in Jonglei. We also hopefully plan to open offices in every county pf the state,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>For his part, Michael Bol, the state party secretary-general, said the secretariat puts them in a better position to deliver.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a people\u2019s movement, launching this secretariat will enable us to deliver services to our people,\u201d Bol said. \u201cThe service is peace; we want peace to reach everyone in Jonglei state so that there is harmony. When there is peace, there is development as evidenced by the Juba-Bor Highway being constructed now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>John Gatluak, a resident of Bor, welcomed the move by the SPLM-IO party, saying they are now optimistic that there will be no return to war.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen there is an office like this, hope will be cultivated into people so people in refugee camps will be able to come back to participate in elections,\u201d Gatluak said.<\/p>\n<p>SPLM\/A-IO was formed after a civil war, which started on December 15, 2013, and is led by First Vice President Riek Machar.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
