On November 30 , the SSOA held leadership elections . Peter Gadet of the SSUM/A won . Changson dismissed the elections , saying that Gadet was unfit to lead because he had been " indicted by the international community " , referring to a 2014 European Union sanction against Gadet after the 2014 Bentiu massacre . Lam Akol of the NDM sided with Gadet and later accused the South Sudanese government of provoking a split to weaken the remaining opposition . Another member of the NDM accused Changson of buying support from the other party leaders with money sent from the Intergovernmental Authority on Development that was meant to be shared equally among the parties . Media reported that the dispute may revolve around who will secure the vice presidential position allotted to the SSOA in the peace deal ; Changson denied these rumors
