INTRODUCTION
Within the framework of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement between the Government of Sudan and the Sudan Peoples Liberation Movement/Army (SPLM/A) signed on January 9th, 2005 in Nairobi and the broader debates on the urgency of constitutional formulation in Sudan, the South Sudan Civil Society Initiative to make meaningful contributions to the ongoing constitutional debates came into being.
Motivated and inspired by the many significant headways being made – to the emergence of which it continued to advocate over the years – it is therefore very much fitting and appropriate for South Sudanese civil society groups to make an effort on giving their visions and objective perspectives on governance and the broader interim constitutional arrangements of Sudan.
A consultation process has therefore been set in motion led by Justice Africa, the South Sudan Law Society and the leading networks of civil society groups in South Sudan both inside and outside the country. This consultation process has generated healthy and encouraging debates on how best to go about the realization of such visions to the satisfaction of the parties concerned.
From its very inception the consultation process was set in motion while being engaged informally with leading members of the SPLM/A and Government of Sudan with a view of deepening understanding and participation of the Sudanese Civil society in all stages of the constitutional process. This participation will undoubtedly serve the common good of the people of South Sudan and Sudan as a whole on the basis of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement and popular expectations.
These series of meetings culminated in major consultation attended by 70 participants held in Nairobi from 10-15.02.05 on Southern Sudan Governance between Southern Sudanese lawyers and representatives of South Sudanese civil society groups organized by Justice Africa, funded by DFID. The consultation generated intensive discussions and group work activities took place in a manner that captured the essential elements of how to proceed with this ongoing consultation process on Southern Sudan Governance and interim constitution for Southern Sudan. The consultation reaffirmed the conviction of South Sudan Civil Society that the function of the constitution is not merely to provide a framework for society but to bring into being or consolidate southern society itself. The consultation noted that since Sudan’s independence, Southern Sudanese felt alienated from the government and structures of authority. They felt neglected, victimized, persecuted and have no control over their destiny. The Constitution of Southern Sudan must redress these historical injustices.
This first draft framework for South Sudanese civil society visions on governance and interim constitutional development came into being out of these activities. It is now being broadened even further to become inclusive to all South Sudanese civil society groups and stakeholders, in order to ensure the best possible outcomes for the common good of all.
In preparation of this draft, we have analysed the CPA, Sudan Constitution of 1998, the Constitution Framework Text, Joint Preparatory Work (SPLM&GOS) January 2005, past Sudan constitutional developments, constitutional experiences of some African countries and tried to imagine the future in which Southern Sudan Constitution will operate. While cognizant of the fact that the Southern Sudan Constitution should conform to the National Interim Constitution according to the CPA, we tried to travel on journey of self-discovery and envisaged a constitution that will place the people of Southern Sudan in the centre of politics and development. We have tried to place the people at the center of the constitution in firm believe that Southern Sudanese unity and sustainable peace will not come about unless all southern communities are treated justly and feel genuinely so. The constitution must therefore guarantee equality in all spheres of life in Southern Sudan.
Briefly, this draft constitution for southern Sudan aims at triggering constitutional debate and seeks wider consensus among the people of Southern Sudan around goals, values and aspirations by which they wish to govern themselves. The civil society consultation categorically expressed that those goals, values and aspirations include among others respect for human rights, democratic pluralism, gender equity, good governance, accountability and the Rule of Law. Moreover, after such vicious war of liberation struggle in Sudan and intensive militarisation of the Sudanese society, establishment of democratic order, which maximizes people’s participation in public affairs, decentralization of power, gender parity and equity, to promote greater participation of women in political, social and economic life of Southern Sudan becomes inevitable and a national mission. The draft constitution articulated therefore the importance of demilitarisation of Sudanese politics and protecting Sudan from unconstitutional changes of government. The draft constitution in this regard aims to make politics responsible, peaceful and civil. However, the draft intentionally left the preamble for Southern Sudanese consensus. The Preamble should capture elements of history of Southern Sudanese struggle and strike the notes of emotional commitment, acknowledgment of the past and aspiration for the future. It is therefore a collective responsibility of all the people of Southern Sudan.
This draft is hereby being offered to the Southern Sudanese public and leaders. We call upon them wherever they are to debate and comment on this draft Constitution for Southern Sudan. The draft is intended to be Southern Sudanese driven and owned. We admit that it is by no means complete and leaves a lot to be desired. All are therefore called upon to meaningfully participate in this process and enrich it further in whichever capacity they may deem appropriate. The consultation further proposed that such on going constitutional process should culminate in the holding of a South Sudanese Civil Society Constitutional Conference. The conference objective is to entrench the values of transparency, legitimacy, representation and inclusiveness; while, at the same time, capturing the essence of the SPLM’s and the peoples of South Sudan core values and aspirations in the interest of sustainable peace and development within South Sudan, Sudan and the region as a whole. The conference will also debate, amend and adopt the draft Constitution for Southern Sudan. The adopted final draft will be presented to the SPLM, other southern political parties leaders’ and Southern Sudan Constitutional Drafting Committee (SSCDC) as Southern Sudanese Civil Society contribution. Hence, we call upon friends of Sudan and donor community to avail unconditional funding to enable the Southern Civil Society convene this important conference.
By this appeal, the Southern Civil Society sincerely hope that this draft Southern Sudan Constitution will generate debate among Sudanese in general and Southern Sudanese in particular on future constitutions of post-conflict Sudan. We believe that many great ideas will be generated in the wake of this Southern Civil Society Initiative to enrich transparent constitutional debate and consolidate the values of democracy, constitutionalism and the rule of law in Sudan.
Finally, we plead to our leaders to secure the participation of Southern Sudanese Civil Society in the process of constitutional making and on the manner in which they prefer to be governed. We plead to them to listen to the voices of the people and to rise to their expectations for Southern Sudan Constitution that guarantees respect for human rights, democracy, gender equity, good governance, accountability and the Rule of Law.
