\u201cAll these incidents were carried out by Murle Militias from GPAA, and these attacks demonstrated a lack of cooperation from Pibor Youths, this has confirmed a provocative attack on Lou Nuer while Lou Nuer people are for peace,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI also called on GPAA county authorities to control their Youth who are on rampant attacks in recent days in Lou Nuer territory to prevent the collapse of the peace,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n
