Petroleum Minister, South Sudan - Ezekiel Lol Gatkuoth

from The Interview · host BBC World Service

Who or what can deliver South Sudan's people from despair? Its first six and half years as an independent country have been an unmitigated disaster.

This comes despite some of the largest oil reserves in sub-Saharan Africa.
