The statement, a copy of which was extended to Sudans Post, said the mobilization campaign is being led by senior SPLA-IO commander, General Peter Thuok Chuok, General Thuok Chuol Leiy, General Hok-Dor Chuol, as well as SPLM-IO-nominated commissioners of Nasir and Longechuk Counties.
“It’s with great concern that SSPDF GHOs would like to inform the people of South Sudan, region and international community about ongoing massive mobilization of rebel forces and armed civilians by our peace partner, SPLM/SPLA-IO in Nasir, Maiwut and Longechuk Counties in Upper Nile State,” the statement said.
“Concerted mobilization efforts are being led by Lt. Gen. Peter Thuok Chuol, Maj. Gen. Thuok Chuol Leiy, Brig. Gen. Hok-Dor Chuol and Commissioners of Nasir and Longechuk Counties,” the statement added.
The statement said that the mobilization whose aim is for the main armed opposition group to regain control of areas that it lost during fighting with South Sudan People’s Defense Forces was focusing on recruiting civilians.
“As things stand, armed civilians from Cieng-Wang, Cieng-Lang and Cieng-Yol had been successfully mobilized with military objective of attacking and recapturing Malual-Gak-Hoth and Jekou in 1st phase of offensive operations,” the statement said.
“Ongoing mobilization of SPLM/SPLA-IO fighters and armed civilians from Cieng-Reng Thiang and some elements from Cieng-Chany is aimed at attacking and recapturing Turu, Maiwut and Pagak in 2nd phase of offensive operations,” the statement added.
The statement further “calls upon the international community, IGAD, RJMEC and CTSAM-VM to bear pressure on SPLM/SPLA-IO leadership in order to avert looming conflict” and also reiterates the SSPDF “commitment to full implementation of transitional arrangements.”
Our people are so dumbest, why they fighting for what reason within country inside? South Sudan nation has not clear borders with Sudan, Kenya, Uganda and all others Central Africa Regions. Instead of talking about Abyei region, Panthou Area, Gok Machar area, and border between Blue Nile Region and Upper Nile State. People are talking about unified forces as one National Army yet, these people are fooling others citizens in Upper Nile State to takes arms against each other what a dumbing people?
If the command have been appointed by the President
If these message is really correct, why do our people like to be fooled to make bloodshed and distruction?
God help our people.
