 AU urges de-escalation as fighting displaces over 180,000 in South Sudan’s Jonglei state The Chairperson of the African Union Commission called for immediate de-escalation and strict adherence to South Sudan’s 2018 peace agreement, as renewed fighting in Jonglei State displaced more than 180,000 people and raised fears of further civilian harm. In a statement, African Union Commission Chairperson Mahmoud Ali Youssouf said he was deeply concerned by the deteriorating security situation in parts of the country, particularly Jonglei, where escalating violence and inflammatory rhetoric have put civilians—including women and children—at heightened risk. South Sudanese authorities estimate the number of displaced in Jonglei at more than 180,000, the United Nations humanitarian agency OCHA said last week.

Members of All Progressives Congress (APC) in Zamfara State have been thrown into mourning over killing of one of its chieftains, Alhaji Umar S-Fada by bandits on Saturday

The 62-year-old Umar S-Fada was killed in the early hours of Saturday by gunmen at Fegi village near Gidan Dawa in Tsafe Local Governments Area while on his way to Kaduna from Gusau, according to a statement by the State APC Publicity Secretary, Malam Yusuf Idris in Gusau.

According to him, members of APC in Zamfara, including Minister of State of Defence, Dr Bello Matawalle have suspended all activities to mourn the party chieftain.

Idris said that the deceased, who died at the age of 62, is survived by three wives and many children.

“It is with a heavy heart that the Zamfara APC chapter, under Tukur Danfulani announces the gruesome killing of Hon. Umar S/Fada, who was killed in the early hours of today, Saturday by gunmen at Fegi village near Gidan Dawa in Tsafe Local Governments Area while on his way to Kaduna from Gusau.

“S-Fada had attended the state’s APC stakeholders’ meeting as well as the grand reception into the state organised by the party in honour of the visiting Minister of State for Defence, Dr Bello Matawalle who was in the state to meet with party members, associates, friends and relations.

“The deceased, during his lifetime, had held various political positions in the state including Vice Chairman of Zurmi Local Government Area, Director-General of the State Revenue Generation Agency and Special Adviser on Rural Electrification, among others,” Idris added..

He further said that as a result of the sad news, the visiting minister, Matawalle, had cancelled all his engagements holding in his hometown of Maradun for the day in order to attend the funeral prayer of the late party chieftain.

Idris added, “All the APC leaders, executives, members and supporters had already arrived Gusau to attend the funeral prayer scheduled for 4:30pm on Saturday at the Low-cost Juma’at Mosque, Gusau.

“We pray the Almighty Allah to reward his soul with Jannatul Firdaus and give his family the fortitude to bear the loss,” he added.

According to Idris, the late S/Fada was a philanthropist who spent his lifetime in assisting the needy and the less-privileged people.

“He will be remembered for his simplicity, hard work, honesty and his total devotion to Almighty Allah.

“May the Almighty Allah reward his soul with the exalted paradise and accept his Shahadat,”Idris explained.
