South Sudan president threatens to leave out rival in coalition government

South Sudan president Salva Kiir has threatened to form a unity government without opposition leader Riek Machar if he does not return to the country soon.

He gave the warning during prayers being hosted at state house in the capital, Juba, to mark one year since the signing of a peace deal.

The agreement ended a five-year civil war that killed tens of thousands of people.

There exists a November 2019 deadline to set up a joint government.
