August 9, 2015 (JUBA) - High ranking South Sudan army (SPLA) officers have
warned of the emergence of a new rebellion with the armed opposition
faction unless amendments were made to the regional mediator’s proposed
compromise deal prior to its signing.

“The proposal I saw does not solve the problem at all, instead it adds more
fuel and prepare the ground for a new rebellion," the SPLA deputy chief of
general staff for operations, Lt. Gen. James Ajonga Mawut told *Sudan
Tribune* Sunday.

"The people of this country are looking for a lasting peace, a peace which
will they respect and implement so that there will be no another war”, he
added.

His remarks reflect the difficulties the two parties face in the run up to
reaching a final peace deal, while conveying a non-compromise message from
the government.

Last month, the chief of general staff of the government forces, Paul
Malong Awan, warned that he would not accept some of the soldiers from the
Nuer ethnic group to be replaced by those who rebelled when a peace
agreement is finally reached between the government and armed opposition
under former vice president, Riek Machar.

Awan was the first senior officer to warn of a rebellion should the deal
turn out to be a bad one.

Analysts and observers say reports of the alleged divisions within the
armed opposition leadership make some in government believe they could soon
end the rebellion either by using some elements within the rebels to cause
inconveniences or use the military approach to carry out major offensives
in the war-affected states during the dry season.

The division within the opposition could be sending a message of resolve of
some of the armed opposition figures to using the military solution for
settling the conflict since some senior commanders have been pushing for an
agreement which does not accept to recognise President Salva Kiir as head
of the Transitional Government of National Unity.

On the other hand, however, some rebel commanding officers opposing
Machar’s leadership could be seeking to kill off any hope of reaching
peaceful settlement to the conflict by forming their own faction to enhance
the rebellion and to continue launching their own wave of violence against
the implementation of a possible peace agreement.

Talks between the two warring factions resumed on 6 August as mediators
from the Intergovernmental Authority on Development seek to finalise a
peace deal by 17 August.

   this nation, but he wants more death. Well, let me remind you, it’s too
   late because they world whom support you during CPA with the north, is

      Continue. Don’t want to share national resource with any others. I
      know you support kiir just for money not because of quality leadership. I
      hope the almighty God will give those poor people, their
respective freedom
      once again and lasting peace.

   Why the noise is coming from the government camp these days???
   The world should know that these cowboys in Juba are the problems in the
   country. As soon as they saw Aug 17 dateline, they got confused now. Who
   told them to create a mess in the country by cooking their own coup and try
   to blame others on it. Hand power to all Political Parties of South Sudan
   till SPLM/A solve their inner problems.
