South Sudan’s President Salva Kiir has signed a peace deal in the capital, Juba, ending a 20-month conflict with rebels, despite voicing reservations about the agreement.

It means President Kiir will enter into a government of national unity with rebel leader, Riek Machar.

The BBC’s Alastair Leithead was at the signing on Wednesday and sent this report.
