JUBA, APRIL 10, 2023 (SUDANS POST) – South Sudan’s ruling Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM) faction under President Salva Kiir Mayardit has launched a membership registration drive in Tonj East County as 2024 – the anticipated election year – approaches.

“The main purpose of touring the counties is the dissemination of peace among our communities. We came to inform the people about the extension of the revitalized peace agreement and the roadmap because people don’t understand why additional 24 months were added,” Deng is quoted by Radio Tamazuj as saying.

“The extension was done so that the remaining provisions of the agreement are implemented and the other thing is the registration of SPLM party members because we preparing for elections,” he added.

Deng emphasized that there is political space for all parties in Warrap State and that the SPLM plans to cover all six counties in the state.

“Our members were not checked that is why we want to register party members because we are ready for the upcoming elections,” said Thokriel Chilou, the chairperson of the SPLM Party in Tonj East County.

South Sudan is expected to go to elections in December 2024.
