The ceasefire monitors have waved a red flag against the risk of rampant defections from one party to another, noting it could lead to skirmish and roil ongoing peace implementation.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n This warning came after several military and party defections on many occasions leading to clashes threatening a shaky ceasefire among the parties to the 2018 revitalized peace deal.<\/p>\n Opening the CTSAMVM technical committee (CTC) meeting, the chair, Maj. Gen. Hailu Gonfa Edossa, said the report indicated that shifting of allegiance was another matter that exacerbated conflicts.<\/p>\n \u201cAnother report illustrated the problem caused by the change of allegiance, specifically the arrest of SPLM\/A-IO personnel and the clash at Kaigai in Unity State following the change of allegiance of Lt. Gen. Simon Maguek, said Edossa.<\/p>\n He called on the SSPDF to take full control of its forces and those aligned with it by cantoning them.<\/p>\n Also, Maj. Gen. Rabi Emmanuel, who represents ITGoNU at CTSAMVM, said they are disappointed over the shifting of allegiances, adding that it\u2019s an individual\u2019s right, but defectors shouldn\u2019t stir up tension.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are also disappointed with the actions of those who change allegiance. We know change of allegiance is a personal right of anybody, but we don’t expect that when you change your allegiance, you cause problems,\u201d said Rabi.<\/p>\n \u201cThis is a violation; nobody will support that one. So, we urge citizens to also verify all these incidents or violations,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n Gen. Rabi emphasized that they would contribute to making appropriate recommendations to concerned authorities.<\/p>\n Besides, SSOA representative Maj. Gen. Jany Kaway said he\u2019s very concerned about the change of allegiance.<\/p>\n \u201cI am advising or I am urging those who change their allegiance, please. The entire country is watching at you.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cPlease, if you change your allegiance from party A to party B, please don’t stir up conflict,\u201d he stated. \u201cAnd if the participants, the party B who received those defectors, please, you must contain them and put them under the order,\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" By William Madouk The ceasefire monitors have waved a red flag against the risk of rampant defections from one party to another, noting it could lead to skirmish and roil ongoing peace implementation.
