All set for South Sudan’s independence today

Just hours before south Sudan becomes independent, a mood of joyful expectation swept through its capital yesterday, with crowds dancing in the streets amid last-minute preparations for today's historic ceremony.
World leaders started to arrive on the eve of independence, including UN chief Ban Ki-moon.
"The people of south Sudan have achieved their dream. The UN and the international community will continue to stand by south Sudan. I am very happy to be here," Ban told reporters at the UN airport in Juba.
The UN Security Council yesterday adopted a resolution creating a UN mission in South Sudan that will include 7,000 peacekeepers and 900 civilians tasked with helping the fledgling nation.
Earlier in the day, processions of exveterans, soldiers and civilians, including women's groups, marched through the city centre in the hot sun, some dressed in traditional clothing, playing drums and dancing.
The main ceremony will include military parades, prayers, raising the newly proclaimed Republic of South Sudan's flag and the country's first president, Salva Kiir, signing the transitional constitution.
Millions of southern Sudanese, and foreign
dignitaries including 30 African leaders, will mark the birth of the world's newest nation.
Sudan's President Omar al-Bashir repeated his claim to stand by the new nation on Thursday, while adding that good future relations between the two countries depends on secure borders and noninterference in each other's internal affairs.
Southern officials have said that Bashir will be the main guest of honour.
But French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe and British Foreign Minister William Hague will represent their country in the ceremony.
Among the US delegation flying to Juba are Washington's ambassador to the UN Susan Rice, Colin Powell, former secretary of state and a key figure in the CPA negotiations, and US envoy to Sudan Princeton Lyman.
South Sudan's celebrations come after more than 50 years of conflict between the southern rebels and successive Khartoum governments that left the region in ruins, millions of people dead and a legacy of mutual mistrust.
The 2005 comprehensive peace agreement (CPA) that finally ended the conflict, and which was signed under intense pressure from foreign countries, particularly the United States, Britain and Norway, paved the way for a referendum on southern independence in January.
