The Republican Party of South Sudan is a political party in the Republic of South Sudan.

Origins

[edit]

The Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM), the governing party of South Sudan, fractured in December 2013, leading to the ongoing civil war that has killed thousands and forced a large number of people to seek refugees in neighbouring countries. The party was formed on June 22nd 2017 by senior officials who have split from the Sudan People's Liberation Movement (SPLM) faction allied to President Salva Kiir.

History

[edit]

Former governor of the defunct Warrap state, Lewis Anei Madut was heavily endorsed to be the party's new chairman. The new party’s deputy chairman and secretary general were also elected at the same meeting of the founding members. Speaking at the official launch of the party, Lewis Anei Madut said "the Republican Party of South Sudan is a non-violent political organization formed after being inspired by the call to unite the country along a political party that aspires for equal rights of all the people of South Sudan.[1]
