Over 20 SPLM members held a meeting in Rashad County, Nuba Mountains, on Saturday, to discuss the brief arrest of party leaders in Khartoum.
Rasha SPLM chairperson, Younan Albarut, told Voice of Peace Radio that the county party body met because when Nuba citizens heard about the incident, they thought to go on strike.
Mr. Albarut said the NCP should know that SPLM is now part of the government, and they should share all what they have.
He added that the NCP is still taking about the SPLM as rebels and the step the NCP took was not peaceful.
Mr. Albarut said the SPLM office in Rasha strongly rejected the arrest to the SPLM leaders in Khartoum.
He added that it also disapproved any kind of strike in the county.
However, Mr Albarut said the leaders of his area will show their disappointment through a peaceful demonstration where they will present a written document to the UN representatives.
The Catholic Radio Network (CRN) is a media project constituted by community-based radio stations broadcasting in Frequency Modulation from Juba, Yei, Torit, Yambio, Rumbek, Tonj, Wau, and Malakal. CRN has also a station in the Nuba Mountains. All the stations share the same vision and mission, and are bound by common editorial and administrative policies. All stations broadcast shared programs in English: news, civic education, and other educational programs. Due to the heterogeneous realities of South Sudan, each station is rooted in its locality and broadcasts locally produced culture-sensitive programs in the languages which are understood by the local people. For its outreach, CRN has a potential audience of about seven million people, considering the influx of returnees to South Sudan after the Sudan Population Census 2008.
