Publisher Description: These are Dr. John Garang's speeches on the Sudanese' Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) signed in 2005 in Nairobi, Kenya, to mark the end of the long running, 22-year-old, civil war in the Sudan. The 2005 CPA guaranteed the rights of South Sudanese to self-determination in a free and fair referendum, leading to the independence of South Sudan on July 9th, 2011, after more than 50 years of continuous war since 1955. These speeches are a living testimony to the cherished aspiration and strong determination of the South Sudanese people as thought out, expressed and spoken by the late leader of the SPLM/A, Dr. John Garang de Mabioor, who passed away in a mysterious plane crash in July 2005, three weeks after becoming the first vice president in Khartoum, the first Southerner to assume that office since Sudan independence in 1956. |
