A plan is underway to remove South Sudan President Salva Kiir from power if he does not resign this year, the Star can reveal. In an exclusive interview in Nairobi, a former South Sudan Liberation Army general and ex-political detainee has said they are ready to don their uniforms and force President Kiir from power “soon”. "He can stay peacefully anywhere in the region, we in South Sudan can forgive him and let him stay in Juba. President Kiir opposed the move, saying it was not what they had agreed. But in a recent interview with Citizen TV, Kiir accused President Kenyatta of withdrawing his promise to keep the political detainees “safely”.
