President Kiir Breaks Silence on the Killing of South Sudanese Political Commentator, Isaiah Abraham
President orders investigation into killing of political commentator Isaiah Abraham. “This is what I have been telling you, that the police must take the issue of security more seriously. You must work together with other security forces, including the SPLA, to contain crimes in Juba. There are reports of people being killed, houses being looted, people being robbed and the public says those involved were wearing police and SPLA uniforms. I know it is not police and SPLA but you must look for these people and take them to court. If you do not produce them, the public will always continue to believe it is you [police and army] responsible for these crimes,” Kiir said.

Who Killed Isaiah Abraham?
BY WAN DIT, Former security member, DEC/07/2012.
South Sudanese political commentator and analyst, Isaiah Diing Abraham Chan Awuol, who was from Bor, Jonglei State was terminated on 4 December with one bullet to the head at point blank. Famous Isaiah Abraham, the late was fierce and very brave writer who questioned the government. I don’t know if it is wise or brave but his death has made me leave security and tell this.
As a member of security service, there is no organization of information in the security organ. No secrets, we all know and those people with connections know secret information too. Isaiah’s death come as a shock to many people all over the world but those in security, it was made with deafening silence.
However, for those with knowledge and know it was clear he either shut up or be eliminated. What is responsible for his death is his article in which he wrote saying the president must step down. That was the last straw and it was decided to eliminate him.
Once the decision was approved by the big people, those of us with an idea tried to convince otherwise but was difficult without risking my life. I am a small man. So how was Isaiah killed? Those who know have gone overseas now but we in the security job usually take a person number from the phone companies, Vivacell or zain or MTN, and then we see who you talk with or to often or every time and then we get that person.
That person is then used by the security to get its victims by telephone call or we go their homes.
In the particular case of Isaiah Abraham, he was killed by members of a special protection of president guard unit, called ‘Tiger.’ It is open secret known to all that they have jails in their compound next to the president’s official residence, J1. They have killed many people and buried them there, even including a guy who used the First Lady’s name for business.
So, on that fatal night, Isaiah Diing was called out from his home and was made to sit down and then shot in the head. Only one bullet. He was killed by another Dinka, his tribe people. The murdering people made sure that national security was not patrolling at night in that particular area of Gudele.
So, my brothers, watch out. Security people say the following people are next because of too much talking against the government and ministers.
So, please, brothers watch out. Mabior Garang, Kuir e Garang, Deng Dekeuk, Mading Ngor, Zachariah Manyok Biar, Elhag Paul, Justin Ambago Ramba and James Okuk.
