Rosalind said "conducting the Abyei referendum is crucial". Abyei referendum as of the proposal by the African Union High Implementation Pannel is scheduled to take place this October but issues to do with voters‟ registration, Abyei commission and administration are not yet in place. Rosalind after talks with the minister of Foreign Affairs Dr. Barnaba Marial Benjamin said a team from the African Union Peace and Security Council would soon arrive in the country to see the situation of the people of Abyei as the return home. Rosalind also promised of the support of the EU to see peace returns in Jonglei state. The minister also held discussions with the Indonesian Ambassador to South Sudan Dr. Sujatmiko. The talks centered on how the two countries can establish diplomatic relation between each other in order to enhance bilateral cooperations. According to sujatmiko the republic of Indonesia is interested in trade with South Sudan especially on the oil and agriculture sector. (Back to Top) South Sudan dismisses reports on suspending Abyei poll Gurtong Juba, 10/10/13 - South Sudan Minister of Foreign Affairs Dr. Barnaba Marial has dismissed reports, quoting Khartoum sources, claiming that the African Union (AU) had called off the Abyei referendum. On Wednesday Marial dismissed the reports saying they are rumors and Sudan‟s propaganda aimed at convincing the AU leadership to suspend the Abyei referendum. “There are reports that have come out from Khartoum that the AU has cancelled the referendum on Abyei. That is not true,” Marial told press. “As I speak to you now, the AU is still sitting in Addis Ababa in order for the AU Peace and Security Council in order to make proper communiqué related to the road map for Abyei including the issue of the Abyei referendum,” Marial said. He said the proposal given by President Mbeki as AU‟s position on the Abyei referendum still stands as the only way forward for resolving the final status of Abyei. 2 “We would like to make it very clear as the Republic of South Sudan there is nothing like referendum being cancelled,” Marial reiterated. On Monday pro-Sudan media agency, SUNA quoted a source claimed to be Sudan‟s representative at the Abyei Over Sight Committee (AJOC) that the Sudanese government had received information from the AU calling off any unilateral support from either Sudan or South Sudan on the Abyei referendum. (Back to Top) Probe links Sudan to Abyei Chief killing Gurtong Juba, 10/10/13 - South Sudan‟s representative at the investigative committee on the murder of the Abyei paramount Chief Kuol Deng Kuol said on Wednesday that Sudan is linked to the killing of the Chief. Deng Biong, a representative in the committee yesterday met and briefed the President on the report of the committee, saying investigations have finished. He shortly told the press that, the first copy of the report was already been presented to the AU leadership. “We had of course descending opinion on the findings of the report and the recommendation will later on be discussed in a forum,” Deng said. “There are some areas that specially related to the link of the government of Sudan to the incident,” Deng said. Deng is part of the member of the AU Committee constituted to investigate the killing of Deng Kuol Deng which occurred in May this year. South Sudan earlier on had linked Deng Kuol Deng‟s assassination to Sudan, saying it was a move aimed at disrupting the Abyei referendum. Sudan up to now has refused to agree on the conduct of the Abyei referendum, pushing for conditions South Sudan and the Ngok Dinka tribe in Abyei consider it not favourable. (Back to Top) Sudanese FM chairs meeting on implementing agreements with South Sudan SUNA Khartoum, 10/10/13 - Sudanese Foreign Minister Ali Karti on Wednesday chaired the second ministerial level meeting for the implementation of cooperation agreements signed with South Sudan. Among those at the meeting were Ministers of Trade and of Health, the State Minister at the Ministry of Interior, representatives of ministries of transport, oil and defence, the Customs, the chairman of the debts committee and a representative of the local chamber of commerce. The meeting reviewed implementation of agreements particularly those in the trade sector and concerning the opening of border crossings between the two countries. Trade Minister Osman Omer Al-Sharif said he had finalised preparations to resume and expand trade exchanges between Sudan and South Sudan, and had identified 172 types of Sudanese commodities which could be exported to South Sudan. The representative of the Ministry of Transport said his ministry had completed preparations for resuming river transportation services between the two countries, indicating that 246 river transportation vessels were ready for use in trade. He also announced that the Minister of Transport of South Sudan will visit Sudan early next month to sign an agreement in the transportation sector. (Back to Top) Abyei community remains determined to vote in October Sudantribune.com Juba, 09/10/13 - In a bid to capture the attention of the international community, citizens of the oil-contested border region of Abyei took to the streets in large numbers on Tuesday, expressing their readiness to cast their vote this month. 3 Protesters, which included participants from the general public, members of civil society organisations, faith-based groups, traditional leaders, youth and women‟s groups, as well as trade and student union representatives in the area, delivered a letter to the United Nations Interim Force for Abyei (UNISFA), outlining their grievances. “Our demands remain unchanged. The month of October, 2013, remains as our sacred deadline for holding [the] Abyei referendum on self-determination and if it is not honoured then the Ngok Dinka chiefdoms will organise their [own] popular referendum”, the letter said, a copy of which was obtained by Sudan Tribune. The letter maintains that the Ngok Dinka chiefdoms are prepared to go ahead with the referendum without the involvement of the Sudanese and South Sudanese governments. The letter further states it would hold the AU body responsible should the conflict escalate further as a result of its failure to take decisive action to break the deadlock. “The African Union Peace and Security Council shall bear the responsibility for any escalation and tension that may arise during or in the aftermath of the upcoming popular referendum”, the groups said. “However, we call upon United Nations Interim Security Force for Abyei to step up its civil protection component in order to provide necessary protection for the voting centres during the popular referendum”, the letter adds. The demonstrators called for the full, immediate and unconditional withdrawal of troops from the Sudan Armed Forces (SAF), which have remained in northern areas of Abyei in defiance of a resolution passed by the United Nations Security Council (UNSC). “We strongly call upon [the] AU and UNISFA to ensure [the] full withdrawal of [the] SAF from various areas within Abyei borders, especially those stationed in Diffra (Kech) oil fields”, the group said.

With Malakal as its capital, the state has 13 counties with Akoka being the most recent. Upper Nile shares borders with Southern Kordofan and Unity in the west, Ethiopia and Blue Nile in the east, Jonglei in the south, and White Nile in the north. The state has four main tribes: Shilluk (mainly in Panyikang, Fashoda and Manyo Counties), Dinka (dominant in Baliet, Akoka, Melut and Renk Counties), Jikany Nuer (in Nasir and Ulang Counties), Gajaak Nuer (in Longochuk and Maiwut), Berta (in Maban County), Burun (in Maban and Longochok Counties), Dajo in Longochuk County and Mabani in Maban County. Security and Political History Since inception of the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA), Upper Nile State has witnessed a challenging security and political environment, due to the fact that it was the only state in Southern Sudan that had a Governor from the National Congress Party (NCP). (The CPA called for at least one state in Southern Sudan to be given to the NCP.) There were basically three reasons why Upper Nile was selected amongst all the 10 states to accommodate the NCP’s slot in the CPA arrangements.

  • The Conflict in Upper Nile State (18 March 2014 Update)
    The Conflict in Upper Nile State (18 March 2014 update) Three months have elapsed since widespread conflict broke out in South Sudan, and Malakal, Upper Nile’s state capital, remains deserted and largely burned to the ground. The state is patchwork of zones of control, with the rebels holding the largely Nuer south (Longochuk, Maiwut, Nasir, and Ulang counties), and the government retaining the north (Renk), east (Maban and Melut), and the crucial areas around Upper Nile’s oil fields. The rest of the state is contested. The conflict in Upper Nile began as one between different factions within the SPLA but has now broadened to include the targeted ethnic killing of civilians by both sides. With the status of negotiations in Addis Ababa unclear, and the rebel’s 14 March decision to refuse a regional peacekeeping force, conflict in the state shows no sign of ending in the near future. With the first of the seasonal rains now beginning, humanitarian costs of ongoing conflict are likely to be substantial. Conflict began in Upper Nile on 24 December 2013, after a largely Nuer contingent of the Sudan People’s Liberation Army’s (SPLA) 7th division, under the command of General Gathoth Gatkuoth, declared their loyalty to former vice-president Riek Machar and clashed with government troops in Malakal. Fighting continued for three days. The central market was looted and shops set on fire. Clashes also occurred in Tunja (Panyikang county), Wanding (Nasir county), Ulang (Ulang county), and Kokpiet (Baliet county), as the SPLA’s 7th division fragmented, largely along ethnic lines, and clashed among themselves, and with armed civilians.

  • The Conflict in Upper Nile State Describes Events Through 9 October 2014
    The Conflict in Upper Nile State Describes events through 9 October 2014 On 9 May 2014 the Government of the Republic of South Sudan (GRSS) and the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement/Army in Opposition (SPLM/A-IO) recommitted to the 23 January agreement on the cessation of hostilities. However, while the onset of the rainy season reduced the intensity of the conflict over the next four months, clashes continued. Neither side has established a decisive advantage. The Sudan People’s Liberation Army (SPLA) retains control of Malakal, the Upper Nile state capital, and much of the centre and west of the state. The period from May to August saw intermittent clashes around Nasir, as the SPLA-IO unsuccessfully attempted to recapture the town, which had been the centre of its recruitment drives during the first four months of the conflict. The main area of SPLA-IO operations is now around Wadakona in Manyo county, on the west bank of the Nile. In September rebels based in this area launched repeated assaults on Renk county near the GRSS’s sole remaining functioning oil field at Paloich. Oil production in Upper Nile was seriously reduced by clashes in February and March 2013, and stopped altogether in Unity state in December 2013. The SPLA increasingly struggles to pay its soldiers’ wages. On 6 September fighting broke out in the south of Malakal after soldiers commanded by Major General Johnson Olony, who had previously led the principally Shilluk South Sudan Defence Movement/Army, complained about unpaid wages. Members of the Abialang Dinka, who live close to Paloich, report that the SPLA is training 1,500 new recruits due to desertions and troops joining the rebels.
