June 25, 2011 (BENTIU) – The Government of South Sudan (GoSS) has sent a number of skilled personnel last week for the newly composed national anthem slated to be played at the region’s official independence day to train state government officials and students from various educations in Unity State.
Samuel Lony Geng the state deputy chairperson told Sudan Tribune on Saturday that three representatives from Juba arrived to train young people to prepare them to sing the South Sudan national Anthem during the independence day ceremony on July 9.
The official described the training as well organized and confirmed 120 participants have graduated during the three day training. He further added that those who graduated will be extending their skills to various young people through Unity State’s nine counties.
On the closing day of training yesterday, Governor Taban Deng Gai congratulated the South Sudanese youths for their efforts on behalf people of South Sudan.
Deng said that it will be a joyous day for every South Sudanese to sing their national anthem as the national flag is raised on July 9.
“It will be a colourful day for the young stars of Unity State people to raise their voice and tell the world about South Sudanese ready to host their independent and free from oppression regime of Khartoum government” he said.
South Sudan will split away to form a new nation on July 9, but North and South have yet to agree who on a number of thorny post-referendum issues including border demarcation, citizenship, national debt and oil sharing.

BOL,
SPLM/A was formed by strongly Naath community that is why they are very happy to raise the flag on July 9th. The Naath community will never be antagonistic of their own struggle such as SPLM/A which they created before anyone did in South Sudan.

Dear Dito, that should have been the case but we still have few brothers like supporter of Naath who now changed his name to supporter of the northern backed militia Gadet will unfortunately be happy with us because of the fact they will be divorced by their users soon after July the 9th since they will not any longger be of any use to the North, still we will welcome the lost sheeps back to the herd.
