August 16, 2016 (NAIROBI) – The newly appointed South Sudan’s First
Vice President, Taban Deng Gai, Tuesday arrived to Nairobi for talks
with the Kenyan officials on the implementation of the IGAD brokered
peace agreement.
Gai, whose appointment to replace Riek Machar, opposition leader and
former First Vice President, was accompanied by a number of senior
political and security officials of President Salva Kiir’s government.
The delegation include defence minister, Kuol Manyang Juuk, cabinet
affairs minister, Martin Elia Lomoru, Ezekiel Lol Gatkuoth of
petroleum, Awut Deng Acuil, Akol Koor, head of internal intelligence
and Duoth Guet, head of external intelligence, among others.
The visiting South Sudanese delegation is expected to pay a courtesy
visit to President Uhuru Kenyatta at the State House to discuss a
range of issues, including the proposed deployment of regional force
to Juba to restore security and protect civilians at risk in the
capital.
The visit comes days after the United Nations Security Council (UNSC)
passed a resolution in New York to deploy up to 4,000-strong force to
Juba.
The new first deputy president told a summit of the heads of state and
government in Addis Ababa last week that he will step down once Machar
returns to Juba to continue with the implementation of the August 2015
peace deal which ended 21 months of civil war in South Sudan.
Kenya is among the countries that will contribute troops to deploy in
the South Sudanese capital.

FVP Taban Deng Gai is a man that God has changed to close
the widest gap of hatred & murder btn Dinka & Nuer which was
originally created by Dr. Riek Machar Teny in 1991 Dinka-Bor genocide
by his white militias he commanded. Souls of innocent Dinka & Nuer
will judge this yr 2016. God of poor people, help us! Amen!
