Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>South Sudan opposition commander and chairman of the Agwelek forces General Johnson Olony Thabo is expected in the country\u2019s capital Juba soon, according to the head of the Agwelek advance team in Juba.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, General Olony and leader of the breakaway SPLM-IO Kitgwang faction led by General Simon Gatwech Dual signed a recommitment to the security arrangements with President Salva Mayardit\u2019s government.<\/p>\n

The deal paved way for a planned integration of the opposition factions\u2019 forces into South Sudan People\u2019s Defense Forces (SSPDF) and an advance team for the two men arrived in Juba last week ahead of their return.<\/p>\n

A senior opposition diplomat told Sudans Post in Khartoum this week that Olony and Gatwech won\u2019t return to Juba soon pending a test of if the agreement with Kiir will be implemented in letter and spirit.<\/p>\n

But in an interview with Radio Tamazuj, the head of the Agwelek Division advance delegation in Juba, General Paul Achut Nyibek, said Olony will return to Juba soon, without giving a timeline for the opposition leader\u2019s return.<\/p>\n

\u201cGeneral Johnson Olony is ready to come to Juba anytime. Especially after the general amnesty that was issued against all the Kit Gwang forces,\u201d General Nyibek said on Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo we are here to prepare the way for him to return. As much as we implement this agreement, General Olony will be coming soon to Juba,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
