Another brigadier general has resigned from South Sudan’s army, The Sudan People’s Liberation Army (SPLA), on Monday.
Last week, two top military officers resigned their positions over ethnic bias and other accusations.
In a letter addressed to President Salva Kiir, Brigadier General Kamila Otwari Aleardo Paul, who had been in charge of logistic support in the SPLA army, resigned from his position, while accusing President Kiir’s administration of mismanagement and bias policies.
“Sir, with your partiality, favouritism and bias policies, you have dumped the country into chaos making it an incessant conflict zone, ” Kamila wrote.
Kamila, who hails from the Lotuko tribe, also accused Kiir’s government of squandering public fund to equip and serve his Dinka ethnic group only. He claimed that the SPLA army has been confiscating citizens’ properties without accountability.
