my responsibility as a journalist is to get beyond the smoke and mirrors it's not just about me here in maryland or being neutral it's about being truthful. when he was working golf and i work you know. this is the news africa coming up in the next fifteen minutes millions have been displays of home and i brought you to don't go in civil war now south sudan's government on u.n. agencies trying to help them return home but is it too soon. also coming out a fifth day of heavy rain compounds the misery in was a meek eight teams managed to make the first aerial beliefs though he had two of survival on salvation.

it's been largely perceived as music for white people but once a way to school is breaking that stereotype. my god you know thank you for joining us it is the great red tag of the six years of civil war that told the welds youngest country south sudan's refugees and the journey back home the conflict has cost the country d.n.e. whole villages razed to the ground and occasions of war crimes and more than four hundred thousand people killed. amid the violence an estimated four point four million people fled their homes around one in four people creating the continent's biggest refugee crisis now the peace deal signed seven months ago hangs by a thread government and un agencies are working to return victims the families and

homes they left behind. packing up to leave not joint and how younger sister gathered their last few things after six years in camps for the displaced they're looking forward to finally heading home. like he is different from life in the village because here nobody helps you but in the village you have relatives around you and they help you. her sister is also keen to return to her studies. when we were in the campaign kenya we went to school but we had to drop out because we couldn't afford the school face so we're happy to go back home and be reunited with our parents and continue with our education. when the fighting broke out they fled their home in rank in the far north of south sudan they took what they could carry and one hundred kilometers to the kenyan

border in the far south now they in juba the capital and the u.s. refugee agency to helping them leave and accompanying them on a three day long journey back. many of those who returned faced tough challenges fighting is still rampant in parts of the country it hasn't rained in months and the fields have not been attended to for years but that hasn't deterred everyone. just feel happy because oh go back with my family and start preparing our land when there is peace then we can grow things we got used to plant vegetables and fruit when the rain came after years of being apart from their loved ones the most important thing for me and the others is just to get home safe. now i spoke to alan boswell dannatt on this from the international crisis group i began by asking him exactly how the government and u.n.

agencies helping people returned to the homes and villages well you know the government in south sudan has never had much capacity to really help its citizens and of course since the war started it's been really just made and the truth is there's hardly any services that exist outside either of these units estate i.d.p. camps and a few towns so they've been they've been trying to convince some displaced people to return but it's been really challenging because people both aren't sure if they'll have any services when they return but they're also quite afraid of their safety exactly you mentioned really what about those that may not want to return due to security concerns yeah i'd say most south sudanese remain in that camp but you have many hundreds of thousands who are still protected from u.n. you know by u.n. peacekeepers within their own country and then you have millions who are outside

the country as well and thus far although there's a new piece you'll either piece still hasn't really progressed and nobody's really seen large scale movements yet from these displaced populations when they'll feel ready to return it's sort of a big question that all the aid agencies are trying to ask themselves right now so we're talking about this peace deal and many believe or hoping at least that this will be the final peace deal now bring peace back to that comes after five years of civil war is that the sense you get up to all the research and have to look into this is this going to be that final peace deal. we know they signed this peace deal in september and they gave themselves eight months to do a series of tasks and then they agreed to form a unity power sharing government on may twelfth now of course may tell twelve is coming upon it very quickly and it does far the the main rebel leader has requested

a six month delay to that timetable they basically haven't implemented any of the steps that they agreed to implement beforehand and so south sudanese themselves are you know quite rightfully skeptical of this and the willingness of their leaders to really implement this peace deal and so the jury is still out but there is a long way to go before anyone's going to call this peace deal a success or exactly how not to be optimistic about what happens if the peace deal doesn't work. well it depends how it doesn't work. a few different scenarios one of which is that this unity government is just never formed at all and which case at the moment we have a successful ceasefire between the two between the main groups which is a really big claws it's really the first time in the war so far that we've seen the two main actors not fight each other but eventually if this thing doesn't progress we probably see that start to break down on the other scenario is where they

actually do form this government and this is what happened in two thousand and sixteen but it's almost as soon as they form the government they started fighting each other in the capital and out of spreading that spread outside so so both of those are worrying scenarios well hopefully wish for the best in that situation thank you very much on a most well international crisis group. kenneth ate a. much needed food to survive. but most. affected to move to higher ground warning of the continued risk. the relief effort. is that.

whether it's become by. the. operation going with the international community do they do enough or do you think . for. the concessions it. is for the investment for for. them food food to the people to. come from france would be. much much much more money. as we've had cycling can have has destroyed lives roots on the whole i missed me to thirty five thousand of them we hear now from some of the people worst affected as they tried to rescue their livelihoods see little know me i'm going to run with my name is antonio manuel and

during apartheid playing classical music was a skill mostly reserved for white south africans but for more than twenty years rosemary has worked to address this injustice and she does so with painstakingly high standards. but the hard work pays off. in the first. few months or years which i just could see she's very strict and you can handle twice as time goes on to get you see why she does it just the way she just screams for best believe you to get it you know. through hours of work and determination nineteen year olds when dealing became first violin his next dream to join a prestigious international orchestra away from sweater. that's it for
