An Open letter to Uncle Adwok Nyaba
By Mangong Mawien Madut, Kampala, Uganda.
Why his articles are consisted with tribal affiliations and empty animosity against one tribe called Muonyjang/ Dinka, but no wonder since South Sudan
is a nation that doctors the so- called PhD holders only encourages tribalism and hatred. Adwok is not too far from such people.I lost contol to the article wrote by you Dr. Adwok and published on SouthSudannation.com on line website one date 25(01) 2014 ,
An article was titled the Political Significance of Cessation of Hostilities Agreement. I will not narrate or elucidate what was all written in the article but only pick out some statements said by Adwok.
Indeed, Adwok, the massacra in Juba againt the Nuer innocent civilians done by culprits is undeniable, painful to South Sudanese people generally not only Nuer as a tribe or the people [Nuer] who lost their relatives in Juba. Many South Sudanese from different tribes including Dinka have expressed their dissatifications on what happened against Nuer people in Juba.
It was unexpected that we South Sudanese can turn against each other. many people dosn’t wish such incidents but the question is, why you [Adwok] dwells, talks and writes only about the Nuer massacra in Juba and blindly forget the killing of Jiengcivilians in Bentiu, Akobo, and Bor?
Uncle, have you ever one day surely discuss about the Dinka people killed in Bor church and young women rapped? how do you see generally the Killing of Dinka civilians in above mentioned towns? are their relatives doesn’t deserve also to be given sympathy as you did it Nuer people?
Adwok, you might have right to give condolences to one side and call for justice but how did you forgot that, people killed in other side are also South Sudanese as you sometimes write about your insincere and false unity of people in our Country? which unity do you call when you hate muonyjang [ Dinka] or you meant other South Sudanese unity without Dinka?
How do you want to convince people to make unity when you still steadily believes in tribalism or how do you called when an individual like you who hate the whole tribe for nothing rather then few people competing with you in the government?
Back to Adwok ‘s tribalistics words.
Uncle Adwok wrote, SPLM adopted archai ideology, which promoted Dinka dominance and hegemony in all aspects of social, economic and political life of the country. He continues, promoting ethinic ideology in the modern state constitutes a serious crimes contradiction and this explains the SPLM failure to build accountable instruments of governance since 2005.
If someone may politely urge Adwok to clearly tell us how did Dinka dominated the government? those who keeps preaching the domination by one tribe would have structurally make it understandable to the people.
What we know from SPLM is that, it has adopted the policy of decentralized symstem of governances which has resulted into establishment of ten States in the country.The ruling party SPLM also has made it since, the governance concept of tribes representations which Shilluk are included in representation
Uncle Adwok, where is domination of government by Dinka while you were a mininster of higher education in the government of South Sudan? where is domination here when a former vice president Dr. Riak Machar was a Nuer not a Dinka, the current vice President James Wani is a Buri, the former defence minister John Koang was a Nuer, the former minister of interior magayai was not a Dinka, security former minister Oyai Deng Ajak is a Shilluk, Pagan Amum who was a secretrary general of the ruling party SPLM is a Shilluk, Mamur who is a current minister of security is not a Dinka, the foreign affairs minister Dr. Marial is a Nuer, the Cabinent minister now is not a Dinka.
the list is endless and there is no need to mention the names of non Dinkas holdings independent ministerial positions in the government since you knew them but doesn’t want to be conveying the realities to nation for the reason you know.
Dinka domination and hegemony in South Sudan is a pure propaganda.
People like you Adwok and others wants to feed the whole nation with lies just because of tribalistic antipathy. Creating largely hatred against Dinka because president Salva Kiir comes from Dinka is unhelpful and divisive. As we look at the government of South Sudan, it is believable all ethnic groups are represented by the ministers in national government in Juba.
The appointment of ministers represents all ten states where more then 60 tribes resides.
