The resolution they came with is that all forces involved must move out of Tambura town,\u201d Commissioner Mabenge said.<\/p>\n<p>He said the troops have currently assembled in one location and are ready to move out of the town to Maridi Training Centre. Meanwhile, SPLA-IO spokesperson Lam Paul Gabriel said the conflict in Tambura was not caused by their forces or the SSPDF but by the proliferation of small and light arms in the area.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe cause of the clashes in Tambura is beyond the presence of our forces (SPLA-IO) in the area and because those guns that are used in the clashes are coming from the SPLA-IO SSPDF,\u201d Col. Lam said. \u201cWhat we know is that Western Equatoria has been armed a long time ago during the time of the Lord\u2019s Resistance Army (LRA) when they called themselves as Arrow Boys.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to Col. Lam, the clashes might not end even when the SPLA-IO and forces loyal to Gen. Nando who crossed to the SSPDF leave the area because the youth in the area are armed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven if we move out these forces and we do not look at this as a national matter, I think these clashes will continue. What we want to show the world and especially the people of Western Equatoria is that we can move out these forces but in the end, the conflict may not stop because the conflict is beyond the presence of our forces in these areas,\u201d Col. Lam said.<\/p>\n<p>Lam called for dialogue among the people of the state to end the conflict and also urged the investigative committee on the ground to bring perpetrators to account.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
