We have to be accordingly in whatever form of leadership we want to be in and we have to follow the law, otherwise, nobody will respect you,\u201d Deng said.<\/p>\n<p>Deng said the culture of taking over leadership by force has to stop. \u201cYou have stopped taking things by force. I condemn this act and Dut Dut has to come back because as a businessman, he is a member but he has to denounce his mission and ideal of taking overpower. This is not acceptable under any law,\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.
