UBA –South Sudan peace monitors on Wednesday called for unification of armed forces as implementation of the revitalized peace agreement which was inked in September last year, enters crucial period.

Augostino Njoroge, Interim Chairperson of the reconstituted Joint Monitoring and Evaluation Commission (JMEC) said disengagement, cantonment and unification of armed forces in South Sudan will be a decisive milestone.

"It is very important that all the armed forces of South Sudan are unified," Njoroge told the opening of the third plenary of the reconstituted JMEC in Juba.
