Sinopse

President Salva Kiir yesterday reconstituted South Sudan’s National Legislative Assembly, one day after he dissolved parliament in accordance with revitalized peace agreement. A Juba-based political analyst says South Sudanese should not expect much from the new parliament since most of the legislators were in the previous parliament. Some Juba residents say they hope the new parliament passes legislation that will improve security and spur development across the country.
