Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>A women leader in Nimule of Eastern Equatoria State is appealing to political leaders to join hands and work towards lasting peace in the country.<\/p>\n

Rebecca Chunwa made the call during a peace rally in the border town of Nimule on this week.<\/p>\n

Ms. Chunwa urges political parties to commit to the peace agreement to avert another bloodshed in the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet us embrace the spirit of nationalism, join our hands together to see this everlasting peace,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s enjoy this peace through our hearts weather, weather SPLM, weather SSOA, weather SPLM-IO, and another political party, don\u2019t point guns again to pour innocent blood. This is the voice of women and it remains the voice of women.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Chunwa, the event on July 21, has given hope for peace prospects in the country.<\/p>\n

On her part, the Deputy Governor of Eastern Equatoria State Mary Lodira assures the public of the government\u2019s commitment to implement the peace agreement.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo one is taking guns against each other again. We\u2019re working as the government of national unity to make sure this peace holds because what matters.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe people of Eastern Equatoria State and the people of South Sudan at large and must forget about the political parties. What is needed in this country is peace. Peace be with us all.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Peace Begins with Me-Campaign\u2019 on Friday was organized by the state Ministries of Peacebuilding, and Culture, Youth, and Sport in collaboration with Magwi County authorities with support from UNMISS.<\/p>\n
