July 4, 2017(Nyamilepedia) —— We, the undersigned members of the SPLM-IO Chapter in Sydney Australia, are here to inform the public that our Chapter has not defected to Taban Deng’s fake IO Hotel of Juba as claimed by the former chairperson, Comrade Williams Orule.
Comrade Orule has had his own short comings in running the chapter and personal matters that have resulted in his defection. He is a lonely wolf, who left without any member in his company. His only name and signature in his resignation letter are evident.
We would like to inform the public, the region and the world at large that IO Movement respects the right of individual who decide to leave or join us. This is a core principle of our democracy and freedom of choices or speech. Comrade Orule had decided to leave. We view this as his right. Let’s continue the fight against genocide regime as usual.
The Chapter has regret Comrade Orule’s assumption that the whole chapter leadership has joined the sin city Juba Hotel IO with him and would like to assure the public and supporters that IO Chapter in Sydney has remained under the leadership of Commander-In-Chief, Dr Riek Machar Teny Dhorgon, regardless of Comrade Orules’ present and participation.\
