Citizens in Yambio ride for peace and co-existence

 In hopes of promoting peace and co-existence among the people, Bishop Kussala arranged a bicycle ride for the residents of Yambio, the capital of South Sudan’s newly created Gbudue state.

The ‘May they be one’ event was held at Gbudue stadium. Such bicycle riding activities are commonly organized in the region because it brings together different people, despite their positions and various ethnicity.

The governor of Gbudue state, Daniel Badagbu, expressed his gratitude towards the sports activities, saying they have the ability to boost working relations between citizens and transform societal cultures of war to cultures of peace and harmony.
