June 28, 2017 (JUBA) – Nearly 1,000 persons displaced from South
Sudan’s Eastern Lakes state are fleeing to the rebel-held Payinjiar
country in southern Unity state for safety, authorities disclosed on
Wednesday.

The deputy spokesperson for the armed opposition (SPLM-IO), said the
displaced were welcomed by area commissioner, John Tap Puot.

“There is an influx of displaced people from Eastern Lakes state and
Rumbek into Payinjiar county. The county commissioner Gen. John Tap
Puot has warmly received and offered protection to displaced the
people,” Lam told Sudan Tribune on Wednesday.

“This is a clear sign that the SPLM/A-IO is not a tribal movement, but
is a national liberation movement that caters for everybody in South
Sudan regardless of religion, tribe, race or nationality,” he added.

Puot, in an interview with Sudan Tribune, also confirmed the influx of
thousands of refugees who continued to arrive in Payinjiar county.

The said most of the refugees were children and women, but appealed
for humanitarian help for the internally-displaced persons.

“The situation of these women and children is disturbing; they have
nothing to eat after walking long distances. I appealed to the
humanitarians agencies in South Sudan to rush into the area to provide
the necessary assistance as soon as possible,” said Puot.

According to the official, the emergency response to donate food to
residents in the area was running out of hands and needs revival.

He appealed to the community to maintain the spirit of unity among
themselves, with the neighbours and prioritise peaceful co-existence.

At least 30 people, officials said, were killed in Eastern Lake state
after inter-communal fighting between Atuot and Aliap clans of Yirol
county last week.

    Mr. Lam,
    When did you idiots realized that, the tribal hatred that you
plugged into the sea is good. What have you done in Bentiu few ago?
You massacred all foreigners thinking that they were all Dinka. That
action alone marks your rebellion as a tribal based movement. Why now?
Because you’re internationally recognized as a terrorist organization
that terrorizing civilians.

    Bush Natives,
    Defenseless women and children are fleeing for safety to IO areas.
What is wrong with that? They could have chosen to go to Warrap, but
the jienge chaos between Apuk-Aguok makes this impossible. Now your
twisted jienge logic says something completely irrelevant to the

    The IO has no Dinka prisoners of war. They killed all of them not
at first sight knowing that keeping prisoners of war alive as well as
treating them well is itself victory and vindication in history of
guerilla warfare. I doubt whether IO waste their precious time
consulting books on international humanitarian law and warfare. They

    Nuer by themselves couldn’t accepted Dinka should live in camp for
long time.

    First,if some Nuer refuse to bring back the Dinka,they should
