Abstract

Many girl soldiers who participated in the conflict in South Sudan were abducted on their ways to schools, marketplaces, gardens or at the water points. Throughout the conflict in defunct Gbudue State both Sudan People Liberation Army in Opposition (SPLAIO) and South Sudan National Liberation Movement (SSNLM) massively recruited girl soldiers in their ranks and were sexually exploited. This article attempts to examine the pathway of becoming a girl soldier in the South Sudan Conflict and the roles of girl soldiers in the rebels’ camps.
