THE FIRST LIE THAT ESCALATED THE WAR IN SOUTH SUDAN
By General Gong, Kenya
May 25, 2015 (SSB) —- After eruption of war on 15th Dec, 2013, the first lie that spread like wild fire is the killing of 20, 000 Nuer civilians in Juba suburbs. It was alleged that civilians were targeted after the failed coup attempt by Dr. Machar.
This killing of Nuer civilians was first reported by Mama Rebecca Nyandeng Garang, the wife of our late Hero Dr. John Garang de Mabior who first appeared on BBC focus on Africa on 17th Dec, 2013 two days after foiled coup. She alleged that Nuer civilians were killed by Kiir’s Tiger army.
This was later followed by Prof. Adwok Nyaba dwindled on the same thing by denying that there was no coup but mutiny after Dinka soldiers tried to disarmed the Nuer Tiger members in Gyada barrack. That was first lying from one of the participants in plot of coup. This first lie led to widespread war with Dinkas being targeted on the news that these politicians has spread.
During that time Machar was on the run after he sneaked out of Juba and went straight to Uror County, the home town of great Magician Dak Kueth who reign in the position of Prophet Ngundeng, the great. Dr. Machar was alleged to have cried for almost 6 hours without talking to anybody. His wife Angelina also cried and plead with the population around them to give him time to clear his heart for he was so hurt by what he was about to tell you.
After seeing the population was increasingly becoming uneasy, Dr. Machar cleared his throat and ordered for bottle for water. The impatient population made up of youth and elders gasp at Machar with their mouths widely opened on what he will say. The shedding of tears by such aged man in the name of Dr. Machar was wanting and that it was a great disaster from the guess of all onlookers who gathered.
Before Dr.Riek spoke, he begged the great magician Dak Kueth to sprinkle water on him to give him courage to speak for what he was about to say is not good. After he was showered with spiritual water together with his wife, Angelina, the withered and worn out Machar opened up to talk by first calling out the name of great Ngundeng.
This followed by great song from elders led by Dak Kueth the great spiritual leader to give him courage to say all he has witnessed without leaving anything.
After the song from elders, Dr. Machar smiled and said he is coming to die here because nobody is left alive. All Nuer living in Juba were maimed and killed in Juba, Machar paused as he wiped off the crocodile tears on his blurred half artificial eyes. The restless patient never wait for Machar to finish his speech and everyone was on the rampage to collect his Ak 47 to die heading Juba or killed Salva Kiir.
His speech was cut short by angry youth who shout at him to stop talking anymore for what he said was enough evidence and there is no need to talk over spilled milk. Machar return to MalaualChaat in Bor to meet Peter Gadet Aka Junta Iraq to break the news and strategies of war to him. Peter Gadet after receiving Machar in Secret meeting at night on 17th Dec, 2013, he became furious and ordered for urgent military parade after 12 am in the middle of the night.
His deputy who was Dinka asked for reason of urgent parade and Gadet reply him with bullet of pistol on his forehead. The soldiers went wild and all few Dinka soldiers in the barrack were outnumbered and maimed before the day break some were killed in their sleep.
The mentioning of figures started after the first UN report on mass grave in Bentiu. It was reported in Sudan tribune that over 10,000 people of Nuer civilians were killed. As days went the figure double to 20,000 people maimed in Juba suburbs. This escalated war and within 24 hours after the great lie 25,000 troops of White army was mobilized and their first target was Bor town and its living creatures that are non-Nuer.
The town was brought down to pieces with its population either killed or run to UNMISS for protection. All Dinka population in Unity state were maimed in retaliation of the news from Juba about death of 20,000 Nuer.
The lied figures keep on increasing after a week UNMISS report that over 300,000 was in its protection site in Juba especially of Nuer origin. Over 100,000 in Bentiu UN protection site, 200,000 in Malakal protection site. 234,000 in Bor UN Protection site. Figures keep on increasing endlessly.
Between January to March 2014 war intensified between white army of Riek Machar and that of government. It was captured –recaptured routine between parties who were determined to outdo each militarily. The tools of propaganda especially from rebels were sharpened as no day goes without breaking news even if there is no news of urgent.
Face booking, tweeting, what saping, and what downing took center stage with thousands of reporters scattered all over the world. They report anything being personal and private discussion of connected to war in the Republic of South Sudan. This escalated the already lied situation as figures mentioned above kept on flying from news page to another.
What is the population of South Sudan? Was Juba population half of the Nuer population? Are these alleged figures right? Are we reporting rights things whether you are face book reporter, tweeter reporter, whatsaps reporter and long list unworthy reporters?
In conclusion, there is something wanting in the escalation of the war in South Sudan. Riek Machar, Mama Nyandeng, UNMISS, TROIKA states, disgruntled SPLM IO and G10 supporters and majority of G10 members are responsible of this escalated war in the Republic of South Sudan. My testimony is clearly written on the wall of daily unproven reports from rebels that ended up embarrassing themselves for there is no truth in them.
There is no such population (10,000 or 20,000) killed in Juba as reported. There is no unarmed civilians killed in Juba for those who got killed were armed youth who were illegally armed to support rebellion against government but miserably failed coup they went back to their houses. If there was targeted killing in Juba then there is no one to escape to UNMISS.
My poor misled population of South Sudan especially Riek’s supporters need to re-think their ways of receiving information from aforementioned leader. They need to act like mature people without being led like ducklings by their mother duck.
This lying tool as sort of war strategies to win support internationally must cease or else you are burying yourselves and when the world learns about all these shits of your lies you will be like Boko Haram of Nigeria or Al shabaab of Somalia, the Outlawed war lords of the world.
