"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.
“We want peace. No more war. We must all stand behind President Salva Kiir Mayardit. I appeal to Dr. Riek Machar to return to Juba and continue his job as First Vice President. If he refuse to return, than people should know that SPLM/A-io is a big organization, and is not a one man organization, therefore, we will maintain peace and continue to implement the compromise peace agreement.” Hon. Taban Deng Gai, Former Chief Negotiator of SPLM/A-io & Minister of Mining in the Transitional Government of National Unity, Juba, 14 July 2016.
