Community Empowerment for Progress Organization or CEPO has lauded the African Union or AU Commission of Inquiry Report on South Sudan conflict, saying its content is genuine, consultative and reflective of reality.
Radio Bakhita reports that CEPO Executive Director Edmund Yakani says the AU Commission report entails violation of Cessation of Hostility Agreement by the warring parties and indicates their unwillingness to reach peaceful settlement of the crisis.
He adds that the report exposes the warring government and SPLM/A in Opposition’s aggression towards humanitarian agencies.
Director Yakani describes the report as encouraging and motivating in the attainment of justice.
The civil society applauds AU decision to convene a ministerial level meeting in mid July to consider the Commission of Inquiry report delivered to its Peace and Security Council by former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo.
The CEPO Director believes a combination of items from IGAD peace process, Arusha SPLM reunification agreement and AU Commission of Inquiry report on root causes of South Sudan conflict and human rights’ abuses are imperative in the quest for lasting peace.
