Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The secretary-general of South Sudan\u2019s main armed opposition Sudan People\u2019s Liberation Movement in Opposition (SPLM-IO) Regina Kaba was on Monday afternoon flown to the Kenyan capital Nairobi where she received surgery, a senior official close to First Vice President Dr. Riek Machar and the leader of the group said.<\/p>\n

The official who requested not to be named for having not been authorized to speak to the media said the SPLM-IO chief administrator fall sick immediately following her visit to Warrap State last week where the SPLM-IO inaugurated its state secretariat and has been suffering from undisclosed illness for a while.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, the secretary-general Hon. Regina Joseph has been taken to Nairobi. She received a surgery on Tuesday afternoon and she is currently recovering well. This is what I was told by those who accompanied her to Kenya and she fall sick after she traveled to Warrap State when we opened the movement\u2019s secretariat there,\u201d the official said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have understood that she has been suffering from a certain sickness that need operation. She didn\u2019t had time to travel abroad for treatment given the huge task as the chief administrator of the SPLM-IO and the chairman who didn\u2019t know that she was suffering was very sad for her situation because personal health is very important,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

He further said that the top SPLM-IO official is \u201cno responding to medication\u201d after undergoing surgery on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

In an email to Sudans Post this morning separately, a senior opposition official who also requested not to be named said that Joseph was suffering from an \u2018intestinal\u2019 condition which he said is expected to go away following the surgery.<\/p>\n
