Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>Civil Society Activist Edmund Yakani, is calling on parties to implement the pending tasks in the revitalised peace agreement before June.<\/p>\n

Yakani who is the Executive Director of Community Empowerment for Progress Organisation said the country was in the process of implementing the pending task of the agreement under the roadmap, but the silence from the government was quite worrying.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we are speaking now, we have lost six months of the twenty-four months of the extended agreement without delivering the key political process task of the agreement,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have lost 10 months without delivering the pending task that did not require a single dollar; it only requires the sitting of the political leaders; we are worried that we will do things in a rush and may not meet the standard,\u201d Yakani said.<\/p>\n

He warned that the country will not have a peaceful election if the government fails to implement the remaining tasks of the peace agreement.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf there is any failure, the blame will be on the members of the presidency,\u201d Yakani said.<\/p>\n

Yakani said it is time for the political leaders to have political maturity and political discipline and display a political attitude of peaceful implementation of the peace before the extended period ends.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are pleading; we are raising our voices from time to time; please, before the first of June, act on this task; give us something that we feel will help us transition from violence to peace,\u201d Yakani said.<\/p>\n

He called on the government to save the country by transitioning it from violence to peace.<\/p>\n

The activist noted that time was running out and the country was at the point where the president had endorsed the extension of the transitional period.<\/p>\n

He said if we look at the pending tasks that have to be executed in order to transition the country from violence to peace, we have a lot to do.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to implement the peace agreement before the election; the government has to create an environment that will allow the election to take place by 2024.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Yakani, the most important thing was the reconstitution of the political transitional institutions, which include the National Election Commission, the Political Party Council, and the National Constitution Review Commission.<\/p>\n

The parties to the revitalised agreement endorsed a 24-month extension of the peace agreement under the \u201croadmap\u201d in August 2022. The extension was justified by the backlog of outstanding tasks that were needed to ensure a full transition through the culmination into an election. The election period was set for December 2024, but a lot still needs to be done in the preparation phase.<\/p>\n
