South Sudan Seeks to Receive Power From GERD, Says President Kiir, Hailing Dam as Symbol of Unity and Progress

"This dam is not a project. It is a symbol of unity, sacrifice and determination. It shows what a nation can do, what a nation can achieve when its people stand together with one vision," Salva Kiir said at the inauguration of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam.

The dam represents progress and hope, not just for Ethiopia but for the entire region, the president added.

Kiir announced his nation's eagerness to sign an agreement for power supply from the dam. He highlighted that this electricity will bring new opportunities to South Sudanese towns, villages, schools, hospitals, and communities.
