notes: Change to armed group: On August 25th, General Agany Abdel-Bagi Ayii Akol announced that he and other senior officers had seized control of the SSPM/A rebellion, ousting leader Costello Garang. General Agany has indicated that he will be more supportive of the Khartoum Declaration of Agreement peace process, arguing that Costello Garang was not giving his full support to the agreement. Costello Garang has denied this, and also insisted that the group remains under his command. The two announced that they reconciled early September.
