South Sudanese nationals stranded in the Sudanese capital Khartoum have urged President Salva Kiir and armed opposition leader Riek Machar to implement the signed peace agreement.
Jebel Aulia camp leader Sika Hussein told Radio Tamazuj Sunday that the South Sudanese refugees in camps on the southern outskirts of the city were experiencing lack of food and employment opportunities.
Sika Hussein, who is also the secretary general of the greater Bahr el Ghazal camps, complained about police raids over alcohol inspection and poor education at the camp.
The camp leader called on the warring parties to implement the signed peace accord so they can return to South Sudan.
In mid-March, Sudan’s authorities relocated over 16,000 South Sudanese refugees from Andalus and Al Shajera camps on the outskirts of Khartoum to an area called Bentiu south of the capital city.
Armed opposition leader Riek Machar signed the peace accord on 17 August. President Salva Kiir signed on 26 August.
