At least 100 female SPLA/M in opposition have declared their allegiance to
the government in Gbudue State.

Lieutenant Colonel Leila Benjamin Alhaj, head of the Female Unit in the
defected IO, explains she went to the bush because of some imbalances in
positions, Radio Bakhita reports. She says they decided to return and join
the government after the call of the president.

Leila calls upon the rest of her colleagues to come for dialogue because
war does not resolve problems. The commander of the Unit, Brigadier Paul
Romano stresses that the only challenge facing the returnees is lack of
trust from the community.

Daniel Badagbu Rimbasa, Governor of Gbudue, says he is engaging in talks
with forces in the bush through the inter-faith committee. He discloses
that the state is training those who chose peace and return home on trauma
healing.

More than two thousand returnees from the bush are currently waiting for
the central government to integrate them into SPLA.
