It is the collective responsibility of all of us to bring people on that day,\u201d Lam emphasized.<\/p>\n<p>Lam clarified, \u201cIf you are from greater Equatoria, serving as a secretary, deputy secretary, director, or deputy director, your role is to ensure the attendance of your community members.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cWe\u2019re planning to invite the international community to join us. If they witness a large gathering with so many people, they&#8217;ll acknowledge that Comrade Salva has significant support.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to Lam, the party has a packed schedule this year. Following the January endorsement in the Equatoria region, the focus will shift to the Upper Nile region in February for the final endorsement of President Kiir.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn February, we will carry out the endorsement in Upper Nile. This endorsement holds great significance for Upper Nile, marking the first time people will gather since the conflict,\u201d he emphasized. \u201cThe president\u2019s visit to Upper Nile aims to foster unity among the people. A successful endorsement will not only unite us but also contribute to winning the elections.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lam urged SPLM officials from both regions to collaborate closely with their chairpersons to ensure the success of these events.<\/p>\n<p>The top SPLM official revealed that other planned activities for the year, leading up to the elections, include hosting conferences for the party, starting at the grassroots level and culminating in a national convention.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the same year, we\u2019ll be organizing conferences, spanning from the grassroots to the national convention,\u201d he concluded.<\/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.
