South Sudan President in Namibia For Bilateral Talks
March 20, 2015 (JUBA) – South Sudanese president Salva Kiir is in Namibia for bilateral talks with his counterpart, Hage Geingob.

A high-level government delegation accompanied the South Sudan leader.

South Sudan’s foreign affairs spokesperson said president Kiir will also hold talks with Geingob and the country’s outgoing leader, Hifikepunye Pohamba during the two-day visit.

“The president will discuss the South Sudan peace process with Namibian officials and participate in the 25th anniversary of Nambia’s independence”, Mawien Makol told Sudan Tribune on Friday.

Cuba´s first vice-president Miguel Diaz-Canel, Kenya’s president Uhuru Kenyatta and a delegation from United States, among others are to attend Geingob’s inauguration.

Namibia’s ruling South West Africa People’s Organization (SWAPO) has been in power ever since the Southern African country obtained its independence in 1990.
