Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>President Salva Kiir has reinstated David Yau Yau into the SPLM party through a presidential decree on Thursday, May 23 2024.<\/p>\n

The decree did not specify whether Yau Yau would also be reinstated in parliament.<\/p>\n

After being dismissed by President Kiir in October 2023, Yau Yau joined SPLM-IO.<\/p>\n

On April 1st, 2024, former Deputy Minister of Defense David Yau cited the government\u2019s failure to implement the May 9 agreement between his Cobra faction and the government as one of the reasons for joining SPLM-IO.<\/p>\n

This came after the South Sudan Democratic Movement\/ South Sudan Defense Army \u2013 Cobra Faction signed an agreement with the government in 2014.<\/p>\n

The agreement ended four years of political violence in Jonglei State<\/p>\n

.In a statement sent to Eye Radio newsroom, Yau Yau says the SPLM has also failed to govern and provide security throughout the country.<\/p>\n

In a three-page document, the former governor of Boma State criticized the SPLM-IG for its insistence on pursuing the policy of dictatorship and lack of constitutionalism.<\/p>\n

Yau Yau also attributed his resignation to tribalism and ethnic tendency in the system and widespread corruption with impunity in the SPLM-IG.<\/p>\n

He pointed out that his resignation from the SPLM-IG will not affect the status of the Greater Pibor Administrative Area.<\/p>\n

The South Sudanese leader also revoked the appointment of Butrus Ochalla Ojulu as a member of the Legislative Council of the Pibor Administrative Area representing the SPLM Party in Pochalla North.<\/p>\n

Yau Yau held various government positions after abandoning the rebellion, including becoming the chief administrator of the Greater Pibor Area and deputy minister of defence.<\/p>\n

However, on 29 April 2024, Gen. Yau Yau announced his return to the SPLM Party led by Kiir.<\/p>\n
