The World Evangelical Alliance (WEA) has pledged action to ensure that the referendum taking place on Southern Sudan’s future next January is a success.
The WEA’s Secretary General, Dr Geoff Tunnicliffe, promised the measures in an address to Southern Sudan’s President, Vice President and other senior political leaders at the closing session of the Government-Church forum in Juba last week.
The referendum on January 9, 2011, is taking place to determine whether Southern Sudan will become independent from the North.
