Olony is one of the five recently appointed military governors
alongside Brig. Gen. Tor Tungwar Kweiguong, military governor of Liech
Federal State, Brig. Gen. Koang Rambang, Military Governor of Bieh
Federal State, Brig. Gen. Nhial Nyal Ding, the military governor of
Adar Federal State, and Hon. Salah Mamogi Mamengi Koni of Raja Sate.
The five federals states are among the strongholds for the SPLM/A in
Opposition under the leadership of Dr. Riek Machar Teny.
Dr. Machar divided South Sudan into 21 federal states in 2014 which
was later adopted by President Salva Kiir who divided the country into
28, then 33 and now 36 states.
Both Machar and Kiir have appointed governors to their respective
states, however, some of the appointed governors could not establish
governments or travel in their respective states if it is controlled
by the other warring faction.
Fighting for control of administrative areas in South Sudan is
currently one of the major factors fueling the war.
Since the conflict broke out in December 2013, President Salva Kiir
has invested heavily in military solution including purchasing of
weapons, drones and hiring of mercenaries with hope to crush
rebellion; however, the armed Opposition, SPLM/A which is loyal to Dr.
Riek Machar has maintained significant control of territories and
borders.
Both Olony and Gen. Koang Rambang pledged to regain full control of
their territories within 90 days and to protect civilians in their
states.
