Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>SPLM\/A-IO party yesterday issued an ultimatum and demanded that the unification exercise of forces be completed by this Sunday which is the day after tomorrow.<\/p>\n

The party told the Tut Gatluak led NTC to expeditiously form the United Command Structure before coming this Sunday, cautioning the body in charge of implementing the peace agreement against failing on its responsibilities again.<\/p>\n

Last Sunday, parties to the agreement inked a final document on a unified command structure, dividing the responsibility sharing 60:40 for government and opposition groups respectively, paving way for the graduation of Unified Forces that had been in the training centers since 2019.<\/p>\n

Addressing peace monitors and partners during the National Transitional Committee meetingMartineAbucha, SPLM\/A-IO\u2019srepresentative for Ceasefire and Transitional Security Arrangements Monitoring and Verification Mechanism (CTSAMVM) called on NTC to speed up the implementation of the landmark command structure deal reached and signed by the parties this past week.<\/p>\n

\u201cSecurity advisor, let me say one very important thing. We signed an agreement on Sunday, it must be implemented now I am speaking here as a member of CTSAMVM,\u201d Martine said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe shall report if you do not implement what you said we signed on Sunday which is not good for all of us\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n

He said there were seven days left for the NTC to implement the agreement on Unified Command. \u201cAs an implementing institution we shall always report but by Sunday you will know that you have a responsibility.<\/p>\n

You have seven days to evaluate\u201d he said Martine called on the NTC chair and the leadership to remain committed to their promises. \u201cI wanted to tell you to be committed so we implement it such that it should not be like before. The previous one was not good\u201d he said<\/p>\n

He called on the NTC to implement and do what is required of them Martin appreciated the efforts of the peace partners the IGAD, RJMEC, CTSAMVM among others for their contribution toward the peace process On his part, Tut GaluakManime, Chairperson of NTCpromised to implement the agreement as soon as possible.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to implement what we have agreed on as soon as possible, and after that, we can continue with what we have issued decree on and to prepare the training center for the graduation of unified forces who have stayed and take the second batch to training centers,\u2019\u2019 Tut said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have to commit ourselves to peace implementation and stability is our concern. As you know last week people were in panic but when they saw leaders sitting together now people understand that things are normal,\u201d he promised.<\/p>\n

However, Lt General Gabriel Duop Lam Acting Chief of General staff SPLA-IO and Co-chair of JDB reaffirmed SPLM-IO\u2019s commitment in peace implementation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat is important here is we are looking forward to the leadership of the parties to speed up the unification of command.<\/p>\n

I think this will happen this week and after that, we shall come up with a timetable as said by the presidential advisor on security before the chair of NTC\u201d Lam said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope the parties to the agreement have resolved and agreed on the command structure to unify the forces, we need to move the country forward\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe mechanism came back once again and hopefully after the unification of command of the JDB, JTC will come up with the timetable to make sure that graduation of unified forces was done\u201d he expressed. Meanwhile, Chief of Defense Forces Santino Deng Wolcalled on army officials to move away from politic<\/p>\n

\u201cThe work of the army is not political and that what has been delaying the graduation of forces has been agreed on, Army structure, every officer whether from IO or SSOA when you go there you will not be an officer of the opposition but an officer of the country who is serving South Sudan,\u201d Deng said.<\/p>\n
