NATIONAL RECONCILIATION COMMITTEE STARTS WORK Wednesday, 22 May 2013 06:58 |
The National Reconciliation Committee starts its work with a two-day meeting to set up structures and share ideas on the way forward. President Salva Kiir Mayardit set up the National Reconciliation Committee at the end of April headed by Archbishop Daniel Deng Bul, from the Episcopal Church of Sudan or ECS. Catholic bishops Rudolf Deng Majak of Wau and Paride Taban and ECS bishop Enock Tombe are also members of the committee together with a representative of the Muslim community. At the beginning of May, Vice President Riek Machar Teny handed to the new committee all the documents compiled by the committee that was dismissed by a presidential decree on April 15. A source close to the National Reconciliation Committee told CRN that the members are meeting on Wednesday and Thursday in Juba to discuss the setup of a new secretariat and other structures. Two-hundred volunteers were already trained as peace campaigners to foster reconciliation at grassroots level. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "South Sudan Info - The Kob" group.
