It is essential that Rome peace talks should continue whatever the disagreement is among the conflicting parties to the Rome peace talks under the community of Sant\u2019Egidio,\u201d Yakani said in the statement extended to Sudans Post.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Rome peace talks is part of the action to deliver the kiss of Pope Francis on the feet of our political leaders. The suspension of the Rome peace talks is a demotivation of the spirit for successful transitional process in South Sudan from violence to peace,\u201d the statement added.<\/p>\n<p>Yakani further pointed out that time was running out and that the leaders owes responsibility towards their people to achieve peace in the world\u2019s youngest country and that differences between the government and the opposition groups should be resolved amicable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTime has come for our political leaders to take primary responsibility for making peace prevail. The option of resolving political differences through the use of gun is harmful to the society and human growth,\u201d Yakani stressed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFinally, CEPO is urging the members of the 6th governors forum to help in lobbying the government to get to the table of Roma peace talks,\u201d the CEPO statement further said.<\/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.
