- Jurkuch Barach Jurkuch's journey from a small village in Ayual to becoming a critical figure in the South Sudanese liberation movement is a narrative of resilience, leadership, and commitment to his nation's future. His early education in the 1960s set a strong foundation, leading him to further studies in Egypt. The outbreak of war in 1983 saw him among the many South Sudanese seeking ways to participate in military training in Ethiopia, where he soon played a crucial role on the front lines. His leadership shone as he managed Ethiopia's largest refugee camp for South Sudanese, providing a haven for the Lost Boys of South Sudan. After the camp's evacuation in 1991, Jurkuch returned to a war-torn South Sudan, where he undertook various significant roles, including representing the SPLA in Egypt in early 2000, showcasing his versatility and dedication to the cause. His recent venture into authorship, with a book on South Sudan's struggle for liberation, marks another chapter in his remarkable life. Launched in Australia, his work chronicles the history of his nation's fight for freedom and his personal contributions to these efforts. Jurkuch's story, highlighted in an exclusive interview with Ajak Deng Chiengkou, offers profound insights into a man's life at the heart of South Sudan's journey towards independence and nation-building.
