TFNF

The Tiger Faction New Forces (TFNF) and South Sudan Peoples Patriotic Front (SSPPF) have been monitoring and observing political developments in our nascent state with deep concern especially as the two signatories to the August Peace Agreement embarked on the implementation phase.

Since the independent of the Republic of South Sudan on the 9th July, 2011, the new state has been characterized by violence; gross human rights violations, impunity, dictatorship, corruption and gross economic mismanagement of its resources by few elites at the expense of majority of its citizens. The two years man-made civil war has destroyed the social fabric which was the foundation that cemented the country’s unity and held different nationalities together portraying the sense of nationalism.

Equally the SPLM party failed to show leadership in addressing challenges that faced the country since independent. Those who were responsible for suffering and the un-necessary death of thousands of innocent civilian are determined to keep the status quo and hoping for different results. Albert Einstein once said that ‘’the sign of madness is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different result.’’

We in the allied Forces, TFNF and SSPF in our previous press statements called upon the President to revoke his un-constitutional Establishment Order 36/2015 A.D. and recognized South Sudan borders as they stood 1/1/1956 to avoid further military confrontation with our forces, but the President refused to listen to demands and hence leaving us with no option but to continue armed struggle to achieve the interest of our people. Also we would like to make it clear that we are not part of the signed August Agreement and as such are not bound by any of its provisions in particular the cessation of hostilities agreement.

It is our sincere desire to achieve lasting and durable comprehensive peace agreement in South Sudan but such peace must be holistic in its scope and substantive in its approach and must involve our forces in the negotiation and the means of building a National Army in a free democratic Federal Republic.

Long live the struggle of our People
Long live South Sudan
A luta continua
