South Sudan Victory!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The activist said his organization had campaigned for the change of slogan as one of the measures that can unify the national army and security forces.<\/p>\n<p>According to international observers, South Sudan army and other organized rebel groups have been accused of tribal affiliation and failure to protect civilians during the years of civil war.<\/p>\n<p>The Institute for Security Studies noted in a report, that security sector reform in the country has been frustrated by a militarized political culture that could see political tensions boiling over into armed conflict.<\/p>\n<p>The institute said both the ruling party and opposition in the country, are founded on military movements with weak political wings.<\/p>\n<p>It noted that as a result, the lines are blurred between the leadership and the armed forces, whereas the tendency reinforces ethnic divisions that impede unification of forces.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe armed forces have become powerful instruments aligned to individuals rather than the state,\u201d the Think-tank said in a report last year.<\/p>\n<p>Should the alleged change of slogan be true, security forces will be strictly prohibited using the Oyee, Viva and Ta kaboom, which will only be used by politicians.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
