Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The chairperson of the Reconstituted Joint Monitoring and Evaluation Commission (RJMEC), Amb. Maj. Gen. Charles Tai Gituai said progress in the implementation of the Revitalized Agreement on the Resolution of the Conflict in the Republic of South Sudan (R-ARCSS) has been slowed down by many recurring challenges such as insufficient political will, trust deficit, lack of sufficient, dedicated and predictable funding, and capacity gaps.<\/p>\n

He made the remarks on Thursday during the RJMEC\u2019s 38th monthly meeting in Juba, the first since the two-year extension of the Transitional Period on 18 September 2024.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is an unprecedented need to do things differently,\u201d Amb. Gituai stated. \u201cA clear demonstration by the Revitalized Transitional Government of National Unity (RTGoNU) to mobilize sufficient resources to implement the Agreement would be a strong indication of political will and commitment.\u201d<\/p>\n

He called on the RTGoNU and the various institutions and mechanisms of the Agreement to align and deliver their tasks within the extended Transitional Period.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese should include action plans, budget, timelines, and resource mobilization, and proactive engagement with the various other Agreement institutions and mechanisms,\u201d Amb. Gituai said. \u201cSecuring predictable funding and making early progress with the implementation of these outstanding tasks will therefore send a positive signal across the country that the Parties are making good on their promises and would attract timely support.\u201d<\/p>\n

The extension of the Transitional Period, he said, which is effective from 22 February 2025 to 22 February 2027, \u201cfelt like the continuation of an endless cycle of transitions\u201d, adding that the slow pace of implementation and inability to adhere to timelines by the RTGoNU \u201care major sources of concern.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a tight timeline, which requires deliberate planning and a sense of urgency, to have all the critical pending tasks accomplished for the elections to take place as scheduled,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

However, Amb. Gituai urged the Parties to replicate the spirit of collegiality, consensus, and urgency, exhibited in extending the Transitional Period, \u201cto expeditiously implement the critical pending tasks, especially the constitution-making and electoral processes, and the unification of forces.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is important to observe that South Sudan has friends and partners who are willing to support the implementation of the Revitalized Peace Agreement, provided the RTGoNU leads the process by providing the bulk of the funding,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

In his conclusion, the Chairperson urged an increase of women\u2019s representation in the executive and legislative appointments up to and beyond the 35 percent minimum threshold given the centrality of the roles of women in achieving lasting peace and security in the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is important to remind the Parties that when replacements in appointments take place, they should not reduce the overall count of women in these positions. Instead, women\u2019s representation should be increased in executive and legislative appointments,\u201d he said. \u201cWomen\u2019s leadership and full inclusion in peacebuilding and political processes is central to achieving lasting peace and security in South Sudan.\u201d<\/p>\n
