The GOSS explained that they joined the joint military offensive because the rebels were killing Sudanese.
GOSS minister for regional co-operation, Dr Benjamin Marial told journalists at the South Sudan consulate in Nakasero that the war will lead to the end of LRA.
"We closed our borders to LRA but if they come to Ri-Kwangba to sign, we shall open," Marial said.
