April 30, 2017 (JUBA) - The military command of armed opposition
faction loyal to the exiled former First Vice President Riek Machar
has dismissed as “nonsense” voices calling for a declaration of
unilateral ceasefire between the warring parties in South Sudan
conflict.
Lt. General Wesley Welebe Samson, the SPLM/A-IO Deputy Chief of Staff
for Training said in a statement released on Sunday that the basis of
declaring ceasefire would be determined by the situation after the
leader of the opposition is allowed to return to the headquarters.
“There will be no unilateral ceasefire from the side of the SPLM in
Opposition if Dr Riek Machar, the leader of the largest armed movement
in South Sudan is not relocated to his Pagak GHQs to convince his
forces the logic behind the so-called ceasefire that President Salva
Kiir always violates to the letter,” said Gen Samson
The armed opposition commander accused the global community of
appeasing President Salva Kiir with the calls for a ceasefire, saying
it would only allow him to reorganise his forces to launch more deadly
attacks on civilians.
“Salva Kiir was not condemned when he indiscriminately committed
atrocities on civilians in Parjok, Wau and Waat, and recently in Wau
Shilluk and Kodok in Upper Nile. He should retreat from all these
areas he occupied from 8 July 2016”, he added.
He called for an immediate deployment of a Regional Protection Force
to the country so that civilians can move without fear in the
government-held territories because they would be protected by the
protection force.
Gen. Samson also accused Amadi State governor of allowing government
forces to loot properties from civilians, citing the alleged recent
looting of up to 50 goats, large crop storages, and livestock from
villages in Mundri East County this month.
The rebel commander said the only way to restore peace is to
renegotiate the peace agreement of August 2015 without the involvement
of the East African block of the Intergovernmental Authority on
Development (IGAD), claiming it has lost neutrality in the conflict.
He described the travel ban imposed by the region’s governments on
Machar as the gateway to a better and faithful of the negotiation of
the peace process.
Also, he called for unfettered humanitarian access to civilians
trapped in the rebel-controlled areas.
“Whenever a war breaks out, civilians run to the side of the SPLM-IO
because they know we protect them, unlike the other side that kills
based on ethnicity. We want the government of South Sudan to allow
humanitarian services to reach the civilians without hindrance,” he
pointed out.

What the hell is this guy talking about, he talk like he what more
killings in the country & want more people to die for Riek Machar. Mr.
Wesley if you don’t want civilians to get kill or to get hurt, please
advise them not to carry weapon against their government because the
only reason those civilians are getting killed is because your IOs
have no uniforms on them, they all in civilians>>>

cloth, you people need to stop taking South Sudan to the wrong
direction because of Riek Machar, the government of South Sudan &
Dinka trip or the trips of South Sudan are not going anywhere, and if
you want to protect civilians you need to negotiate with government
about to fix mistakes that happen in 2016 and how to bring peace back
to the people again. if your Reik come back again, he’ll die

Bravo Lt. Gen Wesley Samson. These scoundrels want facts on
the ground and the opposition is just delivering that. Brava again.
They can kiss 💋 your a** if they so wish. No ARCISS 2015, no Riak, no

Thanks Mr Sansom, it has been eight months now since the
conspiracy of keeping Dr Machar in South Africa begun, but does that
change anything, genocide is now on, famine and sorry economic
conditions still rocked the nation, while the leadership continue to
bury its in the sand, with useless drama of ND leaving the desired
reality, the peace is solution to all these messes not mere drama. Dr

Dr Machar must return to his headquarter before any ceasefire
declared. This cycle of war will continue as long as he remains under
house arrest in south Africa. It is unfortunate that a country like
south Africa would side with corrupt government to the expense of
peace.

If Riek Machar returns to South Sudan by any means, he will be
persecuted, him and his followers because he is a menace, there is
someones in your IOs Army waiting for your Riek Machar to come back to
whatever place or area you would like him to go too, believe me if you
don’t want Riek to die. I advice you to let him stay in S Africa until
he gets very old and die peacefully when his time come

We don’t want this war to stop, we want this war to

John Akeen,
I agree with you on this point. As long as the
Kiirminal is in power, fighting will continue and things will sort
themselves automatically. Now, jienges cant freely move as in thiose
days. MTN is now being replaced with GEMTEL, very local now. Torit,
Kapwata, Yei, Yambio, Terekeka they´re gone. The more jienges fight,
the more the non-jienges become relentless and uncompromising. Good

Confining a heavy weight like Dr Machar against his will
in South Africa is a miscalculation and it’s will only prolong the
ongoing senseless war. His forces are in control of most Upper nile
regions and some parts of Equatorias regions and western
Bahr-el-ghazel State.. Better bring him back and maybe he can convince
his loyalist to stop if the peace has to be resuscitate inline with
2015 accord.

Thank you. That is the language these scoundels understand. In
Yei, Munidri, Yambio and Greater Equatoria they´´ve been flushed out
except a few hungry "nyors". In Nimule, all these immigrants, drifters
and squatters have been provided with guns by the Kiirminal. God

Kiir was elected in 2010. You are a fool to continue calling
the 2010 elections as legitimacy. Omar el Bashir had been re-elected.
Was Kiir re-elected. His term expired in on 9/7/2014 and now operates
in vacuum. He was a Transitional President but up to now he still
wants to be called a Transitional President of South Sudan since he
refused having permanent constitution.

Dinka not need to be spared of. They are the ones accepting in the
name of protecting Jienge Government led by Kiir and advised by JCE.
They are the legitimate target. Unnecessary movement of civilians
alongside security forces will be treated as enemy and be punished
violently. Stay in towns. Civilians (Dinka) should stay out of
barracks or any police barrack. Otherwise, to avoid c/fire.
