January 27, 2015 (SSB) I know shortly after this political and ideological divide between Twic and Bor County, there comes a time when two must speak one political stand. It wouldn’t take long for us to unite and iron-out our differences, co-exist and re-integrate ourselves to ‘’politically remain burning’’ on south Sudan leadership.

            The search for understanding and explaining what causes envy and re-branding ourselves a derogatory names, and other excruciating identity will be a piece- by- piece interrogation and shall be forgiven on the basis of confessing the idiocy of such acts. We should therefore comprehend that south Sudan is on a structural shift from authoritative allocation of power to facade democracy tyranny of figures, where numbers will speak louder than our traditional supremacy perceptions against others. Therefore, if we fail to scrutinize our political strategy as UNITED GREATER BOR, then we shall remain a “soot” of south Sudan politics. Unless, we formulate a transparent political retroactive free of emerged envy and exacerbation.

            Much of muchness has been negatively and positively spoken about DR. Majak Agoot, but I must reasonably persuade the doubting groups that Majak was completely unlinked to the fake coup attempt that caused grave peril deaths and perplexity disequilibrium survival across the states. If he had access to the coup, he would have been backed- up to the forest by his Payam, Twic County, Duk County, and other supporters across the regions respectively.

            I comprehensively comprehend that the reason why his political stand embattled with hatred, cruelty and dedicated prayers of assassination is basically because he hailed from the lineage of leadership foundation womb. As per my assumptions, a child raised-up in an atmosphere of leadership qualitative and quantitative is always a prone to jealousy and other horrible things. Therefore, it’s not an abomination to criticize his dreams and visions, but at certain a convincible juncture free of theories and assumptions events.

In order not to group me, I haven’t been a beneficiary of Majak’s educational financial aids (EFA) , but i have to praise his achievements at any political angle because his vision is not limited to household items as other politicians does.

Another reason why he suffered hates and dislikes is being big-hearted and bigwig man politically and socially. He stood firmly at various capacity to bring changes and developments which he started by sponsoring penurious students and constructing a networks not only in Maar but across South Sudan. As non-beneficiaries of current regime, we view it as a concrete investment in future though disputed. His achievements are mountainous, if that is what it means to be a leader. Furthermore, there is no any affirmative benefit to earn over quibble prediction of Majak’s political ambitions that is turned as a point of generating outdated differences of the past struggle. Majak has penetrates while his rivals remain barking the darkness of his scent. It’s mind-boggling to bring him back to the ground while on the tip of the tree.

            The political conflict that is being initiated by few individuals in our greater Bor wouldn’t yield us accomplishments if accepted whole-heartedly because an environment replete with political mutual suspicion on diagonal and transverse line cannot make a significant progress in political tactics at all. Our political-machine lies on pertinacious win, if we conclusively refrain from politicking pessimistic ideas of sectional divide.

            In relevance to the SPLM/A manifestos, the key participants in both political and military decision – makings were high commanders which Majak was not a member. He was voiceless beyond reasonable doubt by the late 1990s. Majak was an active military bodyguard to the current president of republic south Sudan, H.E. Salva Kiir. However, whoever perished in 1990s up to 2008 shouldn’t be used as a tool against his political ambition. Majak fought tirelessly and still recall as sly veteran warrior. In honoring our late prominent leaders, Greater Bor made unforgettable history through the following fellows: Dr. John Gerang de Mabior, Dr. Martin Majier Gai Lt. Arok Thon Arok , and Lt general Akot Atem and so forth.

Needless to mention, they are gone and we do not quest for their presence should God perform miracles and mighty deeds to bring them again? Because the society has produced brainy pre-ordained leaders. This above scenario of who assassinated who must not be an advantage strategy by some communities to kill the political dream of majak. It’s already detected and manageable at all course
