Sudan VP killed

The Vice President of Sudan was killed in an airplane accident.  This is not good.  John Garang DeMabior was from southern Sudan.  His Vice Presidency was a condition of the peace agreement between the Arab north and the Christian south and helped to end years of civil war. 

What does his death signify, and how are the peoples of the south going to take this?
Darfur is still happening folks.  In an era where the plethora of news events in the world and the fickleness of the press, it’s easy to get distracted, but don’t take your eyes off the ball!
