This is unaccepted act from the Misseriya,\u201d Yakani said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis attack comes when there are ongoing efforts of consultations by AU high implementation panel on the status of Abyei led by the former President of South African Thabo Mbeki. This is a clear demonstration of rejection of the AU efforts from the Misseriya and further show that there is no political will for genuine resolution of Abyei status disputes,\u201d the outspoken activist added.<\/p>\n<p>Yakani said the acts by the Misseriya Arabs is an indication that they are not serious about ongoing peace initiatives including the recent Kampala meeting in which Misseriya elders and those from Ngok agreed to cease hostilities, and called on the government in Juba to bring to justice the perpetrators of the attack.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese violent acts of the Misseriya should stop and they should be held accountable for their political misbehaviors,\u201d Yakani said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe attack on Sunday, 18 September 2022, shows that the outcomes of the recent Kampala peace conference resolution is violated and undermined by the Misseriya,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n<p>The activist further called on the African Union to organize a roundtable initiative between Sudan and South Sudan in order to discuss end to the continued insecurity in the disputed territory.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCEPO call upon AU Peace and security Council to call for strategic roundtable on the resolution of Abyei status where Juba and Khartoum should have effective participation alongside the representatives of the Abyei communities in conflict over the status of Abyei,\u201d he said.<\/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.
