South Sudan's rebel
leader Riek Machar says it is not safe for him to go home following a peace
deal in the country. The
agreement signed in August is meant to see Mr Machar return as vice-president -
a position he was sacked from several months before civil war erupted in
December 2013.
A
transitional government is supposed to take office 90 days from the signing of
the deal - which is in five weeks.
Mr
Machar, who is currently in the US, told the BBC's Newshour programme that his
return depended on security guarantees.
