Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The peace dialogue in Wau between Ngok and Twic communities ended without a breakthrough as participants disagreed over the location of the buffer zone between the two regions.<\/p>\n

The conference was facilitated in an attempt to resolve the violent conflict between the neighboring communities.<\/p>\n

The talks centered on four points including the cessation of hostilities, the free movement of people, the withdrawal of armed youth allied to warring parties from neighboring communities, and the creation of a buffer zone.<\/p>\n

However, traditional leaders from both sides refused to sign the communique after a fallout over the creation of a buffer zone.<\/p>\n

Chol Arithuk Akuei, the adviser of peace and reconciliation in the Abyei Administrative Area.<\/p>\n

Akuei said although the talks ended without consensus on Thursday, there is a possibility of their return to the negotiating table in the future.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe communique is a continuation of solving the problem between Ngok and Twic one of the cessations of hostilities, the free movement of people, the withdrawal of armed youth from neighboring communities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Ngok rejected that proposal by saying Abyei box in under UN forces mandate which will open the door for Sudan to remove its to force too.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is where the differences happened, and they refused to sign the communique but agree on 90 percent of the communique.\u201d<\/p>\n

The peace conference between the Ngok Dinka of Abyei and Twic Mayardit of Warrap State started on Monday in the Western Bahr el Ghazal State Wau.<\/p>\n

During his visit to Warrap last month, President Kiir called on the two communities to engage in dialogue to solve their problems.<\/p>\n
