Sixteen South Sudan political parties identifying themselves as the National Alliance questions the logic of IGAD-Plus Compromise Peace Agreement proposal placing 90 percent power sharing to messing SPLM party, recommending impartial technocrats to administer the proposed transitional government.
 
National Alliance chairperson also SPLM-DC Chairman Dr Lam Akol Ajawin says it is not logical that the same political players perpetuating crimes, nepotism and tribalism are made to account, judge and implement reforms being their differing points of conflict.
 
He points out the need to address reforms, unemployment and development stagnancy.
 
Dr Akol says federalism as a system of governance must be applied in the transitional government for the ten states of South Sudan to devolve powers to states for service delivery and development as creation of more states awaits future.
 
He argues that since federal system of governance is popular in the country and agreed upon in Bahir Dar, Ethiopia talks, it cannot await for permanent constitution making process or referendum. 
 
The National Alliance proposes impartial technocrats’ government headed by a Prime Minister and that the functions of the Head of State shall be exercised by a Supreme Council of five members possibly the three positions of President, First Vice President and Vice President including one woman.
