Salva Kiir Mayardit

It is neither my intention to depart from the route of John Garang nor to change the Comprehensive Peace Agreement.

I swear allegiance to the Republic of Sudan.

The death of Garang has unfortunately unleashed emotions of anger; some genuine, others cultivated by elements who wanted to pit one group of Sudanese against another.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.

I always dreamed of writing in an orchestral context. But when you finish a piece, you want to hear it. So we played everything with Phish.

The judge said I was a menace to society because I had put crime on a scientific basis.
