JUBA – South Sudan opposition military chief General Simon Gatwech Dual has rejected yesterday’s appointment by President Salva Kiir Mayardit as a presidential advisor, according to a close aide allied to him.

General Dual was appointed on the ticket of the main armed opposition SPLA-IO yesterday as presidential advisor for peace. Opposition leader Dr. Costello Garang Ring Lual was also appointed as a presidential advisor on presidency affairs.

Speaking to Sudans Post this morning, an aide of General Gatwech who requested not to be named said the top opposition commander was informed by Machar two months ago about him being considered for appointment as a presidential advisor, but had turned down the offer over the delay in the implementation of the security arrangements.

“This is unacceptable appointment,” the aide who requested not to be named said. “How do you appoint someone without his consent? In fact Dr. Riek two or three months ago offered to appoint General Gatwech to a senior government position but the chief did told him that it was not necessary for now before the security arrangement is completed.”

The opposition military chief’s aide said the appointment was “an attempt by the regime and those in Juba to divert the focus of the SPLA-IO general headquarters on the implementation of the revitalized peace agreement but this won’t work.”

“We are not after positions, but after a genuine implementation of the revitalized peace agreement and that is why this appointment doesn’t work,” the aide added.

    “BREAKING | SPLA-IO military chief rejects appointment as presidential advisor”

    ‘Hear Hear! Brave sons and daughters of great land of South Sudan, North Sudan and Upper Egypt, let anyone with EARS hears and let any anyone with Eyes read this, WE have been BETRAYED and SOLD to the GREATEST SATAN AND THE EVILEST OF ALL GREATEST BEAST ON THIS PLANET EARTH——“SECRET SOCIETY OF JESUIT”

    It is One of the POWERFUL MAFIA and MILITARY WING of CATHOLIC CHURCH——the Greatest BEAST on earth. Book of Daniel in the Old Testament and REVELATION in NEW TESTAMENT. Have given a clue to human beings to protect themselves about this BEAST.

    The Europeans Protestants got ride of ‘SECRET SOCIETY OF JESUITS of OUT their LIVES AGES AGO’.

    But they went underground and regrouped and INFILTRATED, the ‘LUTHER CHURCH, ANGLICAN CHURCH, PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, OUR OWN COPTIC CHURCH, CREEK ORTHODOX CHURCH, Russian ORTHODOX CHURCH and Many other small sects.

    The SOCIETY OF JESUITS ARE MOST DANGEROUS, SHIFTY AND CRAFTY ANIMALS AND DIRTY CREEPS ON EARTH. They control NEARLY EVERYTHING WEALTH OF THIS EARTH. And the BEAST NUMBER IS: 666.

    We are ‘stuck with the BEAST’—-they are the GREATEST ASSASSINS. They are MOSSAD, THE CIA, THE MI6, MI6, NSA, FBI, Alqada, Boko Haram, SPLM-IO, SPLM-IG, IOM, UNHCR, LWF, the WORLD BANK, IMF, pretty much everywhere..

    They always USE THE JEWS a cover. Many Jewish people are just pretty much innocent like everybody else. But the Beast used them as their cover, in case they are ‘exposed, then they will blame the Jewish people’.

    The Jesuits secret society can use your own mother, father, sister or a brother against you. They are the dirtiest spies on earth. I know it very disappointing to brave men and women, of the great land of KUSH. But we will still prevail against the GREATEST ON EARTH. PROTECT YOURSELF, FOR NOW. GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU SAFE.
