Lauro Peace agreement signed by three communities on September 21 is among the 2009 leading Eastern Equatoria State achievements.
Governor Aloisio Emor Ojetuk recalled the state achievements to Radio Emmanuel in his Christmas and New Year message.
Didinga, Buya and the Toposa communities signed a peace deal ending a long conflict that claimed hundreds of lives and loss of property.
Mr. Ojetuk said Lauro has turned into a township with booming businesses as a result of the peace conference.

Mr. Ojetuk underlined that Eastern Equatoria state registered some results in fighting food insecurity as hunger poised a major threat to the population.
The Governor added that his state in 2009 recorded improvements in the health sector and infrastructure development.
The Catholic Radio Network (CRN) is a media project constituted by community-based radio stations broadcasting in Frequency Modulation from Juba, Yei, Torit, Yambio, Rumbek, Tonj, Wau, and Malakal. CRN has also a station in the Nuba Mountains. All the stations share the same vision and mission, and are bound by common editorial and administrative policies. All stations broadcast shared programs in English: news, civic education, and other educational programs. Due to the heterogeneous realities of South Sudan, each station is rooted in its locality and broadcasts locally produced culture-sensitive programs in the languages which are understood by the local people. For its outreach, CRN has a potential audience of about seven million people, considering the influx of returnees to South Sudan after the Sudan Population Census 2008.
