"For North South Sudan!" - Militia fighters chant in the native Nuer language
A spokesman for the South Sudanese Sudan People’s Liberation Movement announced this afternoon that rebel controlled areas in the north of the country will henceforth be administered as a nation-state independent of the sovereign state of South Sudan. Africa’s newest “Democratic Republic of,” the new breakaway region seeks international recognition as the DRNSS, or the Democratic Republic of North South Sudan. “Wouldn’t that just be Sudan?” replied the UN public relations office when asked for the Chronicle for comment, “I don’t get it. You mean Sudan, right? What do you mean there’s another Democratic Republi– oh hell no. There ain’t enough seats in the General Assembly for all these Sudans, g!” It remains unclear if the new DRNSS plans to live up to the DR in its name, though a rival rebel group in the region that had also recently broken away from South Sudan has made no effort thus far to brand itself in any similar way. Despite a slight territorial dispute between the two groups, the People’s Sovereign Parliamentary Democracy of North Western South Sudan (or PSPDNWSS) has announced that it has entered into ceasefire talks with their new northern neighbor, as announced by supreme leader Akhammadu Bukhrahmani-Rosshaneri.
