Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>A senior member of South Sudan\u2019s main armed opposition Sudan People\u2019s Liberation Movement in Opposition (SPLM-IO) led by First Vice President Dr. Riek Machar Teny has accused President Kiir\u2019s group of being reluctant to implement the revitalized peace agreement, accusing him of undermining the upcoming 2023 elections.<\/p>\n

Dut Majokdit, a member of the SPLM-IO National Liberation Council (NLC), said in a statement that the regional bloc, Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), which mediated the revitalized peace agreement should pressure Kiir\u2019s SPLM faction to demonstrate political will to implement the 2018 peace agreement.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe IGAD should put more pressure on the key partner (former ITGONU) to the agreement to demonstrate political will for the implementation of the revitalized peace agreement,\u201d Majokdit who is an outspoken opposition official said in a brief statement extended to Sudans Post.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe ITGONU leadership is buying time as tactical delay to frustrate the process of the implementation to extend the transitional period,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The senior opposition official further stressed that none of the provisions of the revitalized peace agreement\u2019s chapter two, which deals with the security arrangements, has been implemented and said that makes it difficult for elections to be conducted as planned.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we speak no single provisions in the agreement has been implemented on the security arrangements, no permanent constitution in the country refugees and internal displaced persons are not repatriated and resettled, census is not done,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow do you expect elections when the SPLM is reluctant to implement the peace agreement?\u201d He asked.<\/p>\n
