The SPLM-DC appealed to citizens and political parties to avoid tensions on the re-appointment of Telar Ring Deng as a Presidential Legal Advisor.
 
National Legislative Assembly Minority Chief Whip Andrew Okony Ayom told CRN on Wednesday that reappointment of Ring should not raise the attentions of people.
 
He said they were not ready to enter internal propaganda of the SPLM party.
 
Mr Okony urged discontented SPLM members to break away and form their own party as the SPLM-DC did.
 
The Chief Whip observed that too many powers given to the president in the Transitional Constitution were promoting dictatorship.
 
He said the SPLMDC intended a parliamentary system of government that gives fewer powers to the president.
 
Mr Okony added that the federal system of governance would be the best for South Sudan so that more powers are delegated to states.
 
He observed that some SPLM members who supported too many powers for the president are now feeling the pain.
