According to Daniel Awet Akot, the Presidential Adviser on Military
Affairs, President Kiir will be touring the States to enlighten the
people about the plans and measures the government was putting in
place to end the conflict and economic hardship caused by the war.
“The priority of the government is to stop the war and embark on a
path to restoring trust and confidence,” the Presidential advisor told
Sudan Tribune.
"We are going to hold a comprehensive National Dialogue where we will
announce the transition towards a multi-party democratic state in
which everyone will be equal and participate in building the nation’s
future," he added.
Akot said the secretariat appointed by the President would invite
people to discuss a wide range of reforms.
He stressed that the government was aware of people who opposed the
idea because it was declared by President Kiir, dismissing the
initiative because it is not inclusive.
While President Kiir sees the dialogue as the only way to reconcile,
critics say "the test is how the government will proceed from here and
how these words will be translated into action."
"We have heard nice and harsh statements from the time the dialogue
was declared, even by those who are pro-government. Some said the
ground has to be levelled, these are the fundamental matters for
people to speak about and issues that should be covered by the media,”
said Joseph Wol Modesto, General Secretary of the communist party of
South Sudan.

Yet, those who born to destruct will still oppose to this critical
dialogue. Since, they’re not severely affected by the current war,
because most of them aren’t in the country, those who sees it as
meaningful for the sake of lives saving will go ahead with it. There’s
no any other way around to hold South Sudanese hostages because of one
person. The dialogue MUST go ahead up to the finish line.
