Well, from the time when the war started on15 Dec,Kiir Mayardit has toured Uganda, Kenya, USA, Sudan, Ethiopia, Tanzania and Egypt recently.Whereas Riek Machar has travelled to South Africa, Kenya, Djibouti, Sudan, Tanzania and Ethiopia talking about peace to the world, where’s that peace? I cogitate extremists on both sides were going for different shopping and fabricated that they were going for peace.
Did those countries brought anything to end the war and brings peace, stability and development to people of South Sudan? Do we believe or reliance on IGAD mediators to bring peace to our country? I personally, don’t think they’ll bring something positive to us if we don’t comprehend ourselves as one people.
Well, the government delegation, rebels delegation, political detainees, youth representative and civil society have spent some months negotiating peace in Ethiopia, What exactly is their main objectives? Are they there to bring peace to South Sudan or something else? Do they really want ordinary citizens who are traumatizedby war to have peace and freedom?
We a lot of unsolved issues and If we can’t solve our own, who do we believe will solve ours? How could we trust others when we can’t even trust ourselves? If we were having any kind of confidential among ourselves, we would have solve the failure of SPLM party before it fall apart but because we failed in everything this is why our country is anguish.
Consequently, for that instance, I have seen no end to the crisis in South Sudan nearer because the people who always died when two warring parties exchange guns, are currently the first people to slithers with either rebels or government instead of condemnation. Why do we obligate ourselves to death?
Why do our communes follow wrongdoers when there are lots of people who can lead South Sudan to be prosperity nation? A country blessed by God and given everything, a country you find food everywhere, a country rich from trees, water, gold, diamond and mineral etc. Why don’t we utilizer our resources to feed every person in the country? Let me tell you people we need haltauxiliary both warring parties and seek our own peace in our country.
Why do you support Kiir Mayardit and Riek Machar when you all know extremists on both sides have no interest in you? When they want to kill you? How will peace come, when killing is the solution? Ghost, South Sudanese we need to understand ourselves as one people and think about peace and harmony in our country.
To curtail it, we need to unite ourselves and let alone Kiir Mayardit and Riek Machar because both have no future in this country.Thiscountry is ours and it’s our chance as new generation free from corruption, nepotism, discrimination, and prejudice unless they’ll inject you now with mentioned above. Let peace be the song we all sing for the sake of our country, we had been in war with Arabs for many years and now with our own brothers, why? Are we not ashamed? South Sudan is for all us, let us take off our ideologies and take South Sudan as ours for all.
