June 4, 2015 (SSB)  —   “The person who has not traveled widely thinks his or her mother is the best Cook” African proverb. Frankly speaking, there is no politician who is no corrupt in G-10 or even in the government. They G-10 who were expelled out of the country have hands in the looted resources of South Sudan. They have millions of dollars in foreign banks accounts and Mansons abroad.

G-10 supporters are always making careless statement such as Mr./Mrs/Dr.  will soon be the president of the Republic by all means. I pity you my dearest supporters of G-10. Ask Dr. Riek Machar Teny  and he will tell you more.  If you want any change, please don’t use word “must” but let’s first think of peace follow by ballots. The word “must” has no different with “bullets”.

Another false is that Mr./Mrs./Dr. is a highly educated person. How many PhD holders are in South Sudan? There are so many South Sudanese academicians who spent their entire life in classrooms not studying through pipelines or distance learnings. Tell me why you consider G-10 the most educated people in South Sudan and convince me with prove of Theories they invented. I consider them as gamblers.

Supporters of G-10 think all South Sudanese are supporters of G-10. That’s BIG No (or WELE). Where did you get the ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENT AND MACHINE LEARNING that reads they minds of all South Sudanese? Honestly, most of G-10 supporters are clansmen/tribesmen.  If I am lying check their backgrounds. You will not find Dinka supporting a politician baring a Nuer names; you will not find Equatoreans supporting a politician baring Dinka names and vice-versa. Behind any G-10 member is his or her clansman/clanswoman. South Sudanese should look at their leaders as national figures not their tribes.

We should know how to campaign for our leaders. Is better for someone from Eastern Equatoria to campaign for leader coming from Northern Bahr el Ghazal and vice-versa.

G-10 are bragging, they think without them, South Sudan will collapse. I thought they first badge (G-5) will come back with millions of dollars they had looted from the gov’t to save South Sudan from collapsing. I didn’t know they came back with only sidepockets. The most dangerous word in politic is “I”. You will never draw public attention if you continue to use word “I”. Some G-10 members like Pagan Amum , Majak Agot etc. are overwhelmed with false assumption that one of them will be the next president in this nation. I am tired of your careless words you guys (Pagan Amum & Majak) are tweeting everyday.

If G-10 wants to convince the people of South Sudan, then they should refund the stolen money. I Anthony William Ajhok need this money to be refunded so that I become your supporter!

G-10 supporters are telling us that their leaders and to me “thieves” are for “rescue mission”. Indeed they will be for rescue if they have come back with millions of dollars they stole from the gov’t.

Inclusion, we all know the current ruling gov’t is corrupt, killing her own citizens, initiating tribalism, etc. but we are not going to change it through the barrel of gun. We should use peaceful means to change it.
