Stephen Buay Rolnyang.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking following an SPLM meeting in Juba on Wednesday afternoon, Kuol Atem, the SPLM Secretary for Political Affairs, said the party will take convene a high-level meeting soon to make a decision as to if it will drop the governor of Unity State from the gubernatorial position.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are going for more consultations.
