NAIROBI, Kenya (July 18, 2024) — The South Sudan peace mediation in Kenya is under threat as SPLM-IO’s decision to withdraw its representatives from the Tumaini initiative has forced several government officials to return to Juba for consultations with President Salva Kiir Mayardit. The officials include:
- Mr. Albino Mathem
- Hon. Michael Makuei
- Hon. Gabriel Changson
- Hon. Dr. Akol Paul Kordit
This development raises concerns about the stability of the ongoing peace process. Further updates are expected as consultations proceed.
