End bloodletting in South Sudan

Ureport

By Joseph G Muthama | Sep 23, 2015

Since December 2013, South Sudan has been hitting national and international headlines for all the wrong reasons.

This youngest State in the world has been characterised by brutal and senseless massacre of innocent citizens.

Consequently, two million citizens have been displaced from their homes while thousands continue to flood neighbouring countries.

Ceasefires deals have been signed between the incumbent President Salva Kiir and his former vice-president turned rebel leader Riek Machar but the atrocity continues.

The current political hostility and animosity between the two political leaders has economically devastated this war-torn country.

Worse still, the newest power sharing deal that was inked by the warring leaders three weeks ago to mitigate political imbroglio and mayhem is now been being trashed.

The international community should force the two leaders to adhere to the stipulations of peace deal, failure to which they be slapped with sanctions.

The time to say no more blood-letting in South Sudan is now.
