"We the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, with so little, for so long, we are now qualified to do anything, with nothing" By Konstantin Josef Jireček, a Czech historian, diplomat and slavist.
January 9, 2015 (SSB) — Happy Birthday CPA; Shukran President Salva Kiir Mayaardit, ex-VP Riek Machar Teny, ex-Speaker and current VP James Wani Igga and ex-SG Pagan Amum Okiech for ensuring the realization of the central tenet of the CPA: FREEDOM.
Through the amalgamation of your esteemed leaderships, the blood of our martyrs and the long, generational, revolutionary struggle of our people did not go in vain.
Even in the midst of the bleakest time, of the darkest hour, we have always come out much more stronger and united. The current civil war among brothers and sisters pale in contrast to past predicaments.
We are a proud remnants of a victorious generation, yet to figure out the way forward in the post independence South Sudan.
Hopefully, the search won’t be as arduously dangerous as that of FREEDOM. CPA oyeee!!!
