Episcopal Church of South Sudan and Sudan Kajo-Keji Bishop appealed to the warring parties to take the next round of talks seriously so that the fourth independence anniversary is celebrated in a peaceful atmosphere nationwide.

He wished that the forth independence anniversary would be celebrated in peace and togetherness as one nation, describing the current conflict as ‘very sad’.
