Dr Marial described the opposition leader as a strategic member of the liberation struggle.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn behalf of the government of the Republic of South Sudan and on behalf of His Excellency President Salva Kiir Mayardit, he has delegated me to come and meet our colleague Dr Lam Akol,\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know it is the same story of the liberation struggles since 1983 up to now, he has been also a co-member and very strategic member in our struggle.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe [Dr Lam Akol] has decided to come home and so the president said I must come to receive him. On behalf of Salva and the government and all the people of South Sudan,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBrother Lam, you\u2019re warmly welcome, this is your home and you came when the weather is very good.\u201d<\/p>\n
