KENYA-SSUDAN-UNREST-PEACE-CONCERT

Former child soldier in the South Sudan war for Independence from Khartoum, now international music icon Emmanuel Jal (R) performs on April 10, 2014 with Kenyan songster Eric Wainaina (L) at the voices of forgiveness and reconciliation in South Sudan concert dubbed "Baby-dont-go" and organised by the charity group Oxfam in Nairobi. Four-months on, conflict triggered by a power struggle just two-years since independence between veterans of the 51 year-old conflict for freedom - President Salva Kiir of the dinka tribe and his former vice from the Nuer tribe, Riek Machar - continues to claim lives into the thousands and displace hundreds of thousands as rebel soldiers and bands of armed youth continue to target civilians along tribal lines also pereceived as demarcations of political affiliation. Inspired by lyrics of "baby don't go", a song by Wainaina on child-soldiers, "the concert is a powerful counter-narrative to the story of violence and conflict that South Sudan is now known for", according to Oxfam.
