JUBA, MAY 27, 2023 (SUDANS POST) – The breakaway South Sudan United Front/Army faction led by General Dickson Gatluak Jock will with in the next two weeks dispatch a high-level delegation led by him to Juba to meet senior government officials to discuss a home-made peace agreement.
Speaking to Sudans Post this morning, SSUF/A Nairobi Declaration spokesman Philip Deng Kuol said they were preparing to meet a government delegation which is already in Nairobi to hold talk on the planned visit by SSUF/A to Juba.
“A high-level delegation from the South Sudan United Front/Army (SSUF/A) will arrive in the capital Juba in two weeks’ time for a short visit. The delegation will be led by Chairman Gen. Dickson Gatluak Jock Nyuot and will comprise 15 members from both the political and military wings of the SSUF/A,” he said.
The official said that the visit is aimed at building trust and confidence between the SSUF/A and the government of South Sudan, and that the delegation will meet with government dignitaries, including President Salva Kiir Mayardit, to discuss ways to end the ongoing conflict in South Sudan.
The SSUF/A is one of the many armed groups that have been fighting the government since early 2018.
In January, Dickson Gatluak led some senior members of SSUF/A including the deputy chairman in a coup against Paul Malong, the leader of the group, accusing him of failing to fight the government and to engage the international community owing to sanctions imposed on him.
“Pursuant to the ‘Home-Grown Initiative’ under the SSUF/A Nairobi Declaration, this visit does not shut the doors to dialogue with the regime in the unspecified date and venue,” Deng added.
South Sudan remains as the country where rebel and come back with so many ranks on their shoulder reason being the country had fall under a very serious crisis after we loss the founder of the movement Dr. John Garang, the very big confusion had happened from that moment of plane crash near Newsite of Sudan South. The point am making here is that, with the coming up of the new system under Salva Kiir, it seems like the country had lost it focus from there because the ideology of the party itself fall under nightmare reason being you see the elements who were fighting us in the South Sudan are the one controlling the biggest shares in the government which automatically led to so many rebellion in the new nation called South Sudan. Seeking to comment on people who are trying right now to join the government of Salva Kiir and they might have rebel against it, still you are contributing on the matter, why I said that it is because the current government under Salva Kiir is likey to fail, reason being the economy callopsed for good and for all, at which you people who decided to take arm against the system of Salva should silence there outside there and watch out on what will happened ahead of 2024 general election in the country. The point is that, don’t should the gun but observe what is going to take place before the election. One thing I pick from the SAFF leaders is that they refused to make gunshot to their innocent people and remain silence outside the system of Salva Kiir. Joking with Juba and joining them currently is like contributing to the callopsed of the whole state, reason being the country had already fail economically.
