Following the inspiring feet-kissing and blessing of the leaders of the South Sudan by Pope Francis, Sahara Energy Resources DMCC, Dubai, has announced the extension of a $600 million facility to help boost resurgent hope for peace in the world’s youngest democracy.
Pope Francis recently kissed the feet of President Salva Kiir Mayardit and Vice Presidents-designate, Riek Machar and Rebecca Nyandeng de Mabior, during a “spiritual retreat” at the Vatican, urging them to “remain in peace”.
Steeped in a consciousness that spurs reciprocal forgiveness, the Pope’s widely commended gesture and ongoing support from various governments and corporate entities like Sahara Energy signpost a prospective march toward peace in South Sudan.
