Top Trending News Today:






First Vice President Dr. Riek Machar is appealing to the Peace guarantors to solve the standoff between his faction and the government. 


President Kiir blatantly breached the "peace agreement" in place by dismissing and replacing the defence Minister which was supposed to be conducted by the SPLM-IO since the defence Minister slot belongs to SPLM-IO as per the peace agreement. 


First Vice President Dr. Riek Machar 

In a letter dated 30 March and addressed to the IGAD countries and peace guarantors, Machar said: “I am writing to inform you that President Salva Kiir has unexpectedly interrupted the ongoing negotiations to resolve the recent violations by appointing a new Minister of Defence and Veterans Affairs on 29th March 2023, compounding the already existing deadlock.” Dr. Riek Machar Letter. 


“In the light of this, I am requesting the interventions of IGAD to resolve these grave violations putting R-ARCSS [Revitalized Agreement on the Resolution of the Conflict in South Sudan] in jeopardy.” Dr Riek Machar’s letter..


Oyet Nathaniel, Deputy to Dr. Riek Machar while speaking to the media, wanted the dispute to be resolved immediately so as the peace agreement in place should continue. 


“Yes, we have written to the peace guarantors and the Reconstituted Joint Monitoring and Evaluation Commission (R-JMEC) to break the deadlock. We want the guarantors to intervene so that they resolve the crisis,” Nathaniel said.


“Sudan came to Juba and the Ethiopian Prime Minister was also in Juba as individual countries, but now we are seeking a forum in the position of IGAD as a mechanism that is charged with overseeing the peace agreement to come in. We have also written to the other partners like the African Union who are guarantors of the peace agreement,” Nathaniel said.


 "IGAD has the responsibility of the revitalized peace agreement. I cannot speak for them, but what we know within the peace agreement, they are the guarantors. They mediated the agreement and they are overseeing it. So we expect them to intervene where they can before the collapse of the peace agreement." Nathaniel said. 



He further added that they are still pondering the next possible move to break the stalemate. 


"We cannot tell now what we are going to do, but all options are available to ensure that the peace agreement remains on course. As I said we cannot tell the next move now.” Nathaniel said.
