JAMES SHIMANYULA BIO
I am a freelance journalist based in Nairobi, Kenya. For more than forty years, I have covered  South Sudan and Sudan. As well as being a journalist, I am the author of two history books: John Garang and the SPLA and The Birth of South Sudan. 
John Garang and the SPLA is the first known detailed study of South Sudan’s celebrated fighter, who died in a helicopter crash on July 30, 2005.
   The Birth of South Sudan delves deeply into the country’s history and exclusively traces remarkable events that have occurred since it separated from the north, now Republic of Sudan
