Dimo Silva Aurelio

   JUBA - A top South Sudanese opposition official says a unified military
   force will not be in place by February 22, the deadline for the
   country's rival parties to form a transitional unity government.

   Angelina Teny, who chairs the South Sudan Strategic Defense and
   Security Review Board, says the parties need six more weeks for a
   unified force.
