Today is the birth anniversary of Thomas Shankara.

Thomas Sankara is most remembered for his revolutionary leadership as the President of Burkina Faso from 1983 to 1987. His charisma, integrity, and commitment to social justice earned him the nickname "Africa's Che Guevara."

Sankara's legacy is built on his radical reforms and policies aimed at improving the lives of ordinary Burkinabe citizens. He is particularly remembered for:

- Fighting corruption: Sankara implemented strict measures to combat corruption, promoting transparency and accountability in government.
- Empowering women: He championed women's rights, advocating for their education, employment, and political participation.
- Improving healthcare and education: Sankara prioritized access to healthcare and education, leading to significant improvements in literacy rates and infant mortality rates.
- Promoting environmental sustainability: He launched a nationwide tree-planting campaign to combat deforestation and desertification.
- Challenging neocolonialism: Sankara rejected foreign aid and advocated for African self-reliance, challenging the influence of Western powers.

Sankara's assassination in 1987 cut short his revolutionary path, but his ideals and legacy continue to inspire social and political movements around the world.

China on Monday donated nearly 1,000 tonnes of emergency food assistance to South Sudan to support displaced persons due to floods, and Sudanese refugees and returnees who recently fled the ongoing conflict in neighboring Sudan.

The Chinese government donated food aid in the form of rice and wheat, which will be distributed in the 10 states and three administrative areas, and some will go to orphanages in the South Sudanese capital of Juba.

"Today, China officially hands over nearly 1,000 tonnes of humanitarian emergency food aid to South Sudan, expecting to bring hope and safety to our friends," said Chinese Ambassador to South Sudan Ma Qiang, adding that China has been actively supporting the peace process and socio-economic development of South Sudan by building facilities such as hospitals, schools, roads, bridges and airports, providing humanitarian assistance, compiling textbooks for primary and middle school students, providing teaching supplies, and supporting the youth and women capacity building.

South Sudan's Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Disaster Management Albino Akol Atak said 60% of the consignment comprising 500 tonnes of wheat and 480 tonnes of rice will go to the 10 states, 25% to the returnees in Central Equatoria State, and 15% to the orphanages and other vulnerable groups in Juba.

"Today, we are receiving this consignment as another support to our vulnerable people, and this time we are targeting 1.4 million people affected by floods across South Sudan. This also will support those who are arriving from Sudan. We have now reached almost a million people," he said.

The minister said Juba earlier this year received a consignment of tents from China that supported vulnerable people, especially those who have been displaced internally, and those who have been returning due to the conflict that erupted in Sudan in 2023.

Deputy Chairperson of the South Sudan Relief and Rehabilitation Commission Santino Bol Muoter said the food assistance has come at a critical moment when the country is grappling with the worst humanitarian crisis due to a combination of climatic shocks, conflicts, and flooding.

"We acknowledge that this support always comes at the right time to help our people. South Sudan has been hit hard, and our level of food insecurity stands at 57% of the population. We have also received an influx of over 800,000 people forced out of Sudan, both refugees and South Sudanese, who were hosted in Sudan and are now being hosted in various states. These people need our support, and this food assistance has come at a critical time," Muoter said.

Muoter noted that this is the eighth consecutive year that China has supported vulnerable people in South Sudan.
