SECTION 2
After the game,/the audience clapped, danced and sang messages of peace/with a local music legend/who performed a series of songs about peace.//
In a post-game interview,/Joshua gave his impressions of his country.//
“I yearn for the people of South Sudan/to forgive each other.//
It’s time/to be one nation.//
We are comrades.//
Let us forget/about the past civil war.//
When I look at our country,/the outlook is bright.//
If only we can forgive one another,/then this country will grow to be a better place for everyone,/including visitors from all over the world.//
They will come here and have fun.//
When they go back home,/they will say,/‘Wow,/South Sudan is a splendid place!’”//
