The leader of National Democratic Movement Dr. Lam Akol Ajawin is calling for timely conduct of elections as agreed in the peace Road Map.


Dr. Lam Akol was speaking to journalists shortly after meeting President Kiir on Wednesday.


"We thank the President for the reception and hospitality accorded to us, since I came to Juba. We discussed with him the next stage, which is  preparations for the general elections, because we know that the peace agreement must end up with elections" Dr. Lam said.


The veteran politician said "it is our belief that it is possible to hold the elections if we speed up the implementation of the requirements that create the atmosphere for elections, because our people are anxious to have elections and not extensions."


Lam said, "what needs to be done now is creating a conducive atmosphere where all the political parties are free to propagate their programs by meeting the people."


The government however says execution of the pending tasks such as unification and redeployment of the army, establishment of the National Elections Commission, formation of Political Parties Council and enactment of a permanent constitution are on-going.
