August 10, 2015 (ADDIS ABABA) – South Sudan’s former vice president, Riek
Machar, leader of the armed opposition faction of the governing Sudan
Peoples’ Liberation Movement (SPLM-IO), has relieved and appointed more
officials of the movement in a series of orders.

The opposition leader in an order he issued, dated 6 August, relieved Oyet
Nathaniel Pierino from his position as chairman of national committee for
political mobilization and orientation, and reappointed him as governor of
the newly created Imatong state in Eastern Equatoria, per the rebels
proposed 21 federal states in South Sudan.

“Pursuant to April 2014 Nasir Consultation Conference resolutions, I, Dr.
Riek Machar Teny-Dhurgon, hereby appoint Cde Oyet Nathaniel Pierino as
Governor of Imatong State,” reads the order extended to Sudan Tribune on
Monday.

Machar also relieved Major General Mabor Marier Makoi as governor of Rumbek
state and appointed Major General Khamis Abdel Latif Chawaul, replacing
Makoi as new governor of Rumbek state. Chawaul was previously in charge of
rebel forces in the state.

The opposition leader appointed Major General Wesley Welebe Samson as
governor of Mid-West Equatoria state. Samson has been leading an
anti-government force in the government’s controlled Western Equatoria
state.

He also appointed Matata Frank as governor of Yei River state, which is
curved from Central Equatoria state in accordance with the proposed new
states based on elevation of the old colonial districts in South Sudan.

The rebel leader further relieved Timothy Tot Chol from his position as
chairman of national committee for Federal System Development. No
replacement was yet named.

The changes also come as the two principal rival leaders, president Salva
Kiir and Machar are expected to sign a final peace agreement on 17 August.

The East African regional bloc, IGAD, which mediates between the warring
parties has given chance for further negotiations before the deadline.

IGAD-Plus said it would incorporate into its compromise peace proposal
document any issue that may be agreed between the two parties in the course
of the 10 days of negotiations, but would impose its document to be signed
on 17 August in case of no agreement between the parties.

   this is comedy at it best! I hope Obame and IGAD members are reading
   what I am reading [ this is the kind of democracy for killing our people]
   dividing states into mini states with no money to support them is a foolish
   and careless guess work that will ultimately lead to self-destruction.

      You are damn right lotodo. This brainless fool/riek knows nothing
      about state building. He is just busy creating states without
asking simple
      question on how to generate enough money to support 21 states. Nuer are
      indeed too stupid to follow the stupidest person in south sudan. Riek is
      damn low IQ and need not be place in any public institution in
south sudan.

   More administrative units are for looting by the political elite. I
   think Riek demand is purely for political power not anything to do with the
   interest of the people of South Sudan. Time to show Dr. Riek tough love. It
   is not going to happen.
