“He’s coming here to push forward the peace process that has been signed – the IGAD Peace process, and the President assured him of his commitment to implement this agreement. The Secretary General also assured His Excellency the President that he will urge Riek Machar to come as soon as possible so that the Transitional Government of National Unity can be formed.
