Sudan is gearing up to commemorate the anniversary of its historic Comprehensive Peace Agreement, or CPA, the deal that ended their 22-year long civil war between north and south.

On Saturday, five years will have passed since it was signed but a crucial period still lies ahead, with elections due in April and a referendum for the south's full independence due in a year's time.

Many are looking forward to celebrating the anniversary, but with ongoing violence in the south, there are also deep concerns for the future.

Network Africa's Peter Martell has been assessing the mood in the southern capital Juba and spoke to Peter Ndoro.
