Sub: SPLM/SPLA Official Website Exists Not Fake
———-
The Director of Information in the Office of Commander In Chief and the Military Spokesman for SPLA (Opposition) takes this golden opportunity to put records straight following reports published by Nyamilepedia and Sudan Tribune on 15th July 2014 which states that ‘’the SPLM/SPLA’s Office of Information and Public Relations informs the people of South Sudan and their sympathizers that the armed opposition is currently building a website and a smartphone app that are yet to be launched.”
Captain Mabior Garang De Mabior went on to deny the existence of www.splminopposition.org, disowned it as the official website of the movement and urged the people to ignore it.
The Office of Director for Information and Moral Orientation in the Office of Commander In Chief and the Military Spokesman for SPLA (Opposition) would like to inform the people of South Sudan, supporters and regular readers that the website had been the official website of the armed resistance movement for the last four months and that it’s being hosted in Calgary Canada under able leadership of Comrade Charles Piones as its co-founder and founding Chief Editor.
Comrade Mabior, while still the Deputy Spokesman for SPLM Delegation on Peace Talks in Addis Ababa did not bother to establish a website for our supporters to be kept updated about peace talks as well as made no efforts in knowing the level and degree of sacrifices made by our Gallant SPLA forces in the battlefields.
It had been this very website he is denying and disowning today that kept the whole world informed about PLM/SPLA’s remarkable achievements.
Secondly, upon his appointment as the Chairman of National Committee for Information and Public Relations, Comrade Mabior Garang De Mabior did not take a minute to be briefed by officers in charge of Department for Information and Moral Orientation on SPLA Affairs in order to familiarize him-self with what had transpired, achieved and put in place long before his appointment.
If Mabior wants to establish a website for his shadow Ministry of Information and Public Relations, he should not and must not start by denying, disowning, discrediting and throwing into dustbin efforts and sacrifices made by other comrades in the armed resistance.
The days when one man, his wife and two young sons would come, kill, hijack, own, deny disregard, work tirelessly to distort or try to burry part of history made by fighters before him are long gone and consigned to history books.
There is no room for hijackers in people’s resistance movement the SPLM/SPLA but only those who come to add value, compliment, supplement, improve or create new things without getting into conflict with comrades.
