June 13, 2015 (SSB)  —  With the greatest love that embrace all humanity, I, m here to air out an excessive overflow of my powerful feeling that borrowed its original mood from the current national setback/crisis which had severely handicapped innocent civilians of young nation to the extent of not even thinking to reposition themselves for next opportunities that life can offer.

Fellow compatriots, to be more relevant to you, it is universal demand to tell you that, in the nation where there is no vision people perish. Nothing brings beauty and excitement into someone’s life like a fulfilled dream.

A dream should propel one to greater heights of the life experience and give him the breakthrough of lifetime. When hope is lost and dream is broken the consequences can be very fatal and some times life may even lose.

However, I noticed with a lot of concern, majority of innocent people in the World`s youngest nation (South Sudan) are in the last stage to dislodge their constant effort of focus in life, giving up, feeling expired, demotivated and lacking the will to move on with their life due to inglorious consequences of bottomless-pit meaningless war, which was instigated in mid-December 2013, when political debates on reforms within political party (SPLM) turn violent.

Right now and for sure, a cloud of dust is still floating in the air, a dust of our political opinions, which does not even demonstrates the high demand sense of obedient to universal law of gravitational force due to gross habit of carelessness and lack of wisdom in the minds of rein-holders in the nation to control setback.

At a time like this, peace slogan but not war slogan, is needed in order for us to achieve what we need in common (peace), furthermore, for me to makes fair comment on matters of public interest in the eyes of my people, it is my humble pleasure to take this golden opportunity to calls upon innocent civilians of young nation who are experiencing ceaseless untold suffering, subjected upon them by current national crisis, to enroll in their school of hope.

Hope is the only remaining possible emergency exit for us to access fresh air in this detention without trial. Hope is the only way we could keep alive the dream of our founder whose hands are clean in this current national crisis. Hope is the only way we could make our future not to be an exact duplicate of the past. Hope is the only way we could licenses our national greatness and absolutely crowns ourselves to be rich inheritors of everlasting unity, justice, liberty, prosperity, and wonderful independence bequeathed by our founder.

Fellow citizens, in this hostile condition that compel everyone in our nation to inherits the nightmare of extreme poverty; compel everyone to dwell in mourning attire for the rest of their life; forcing vulnerable people to seek refuge in anti-social behaviors such as alcoholism, prostitution, theft among others in that matter; forcing vulnerable people to embrace refugee status for the rest of their life.

Moreover, it seems reasonable to expect God to hasten on His intervention since is the one with the key role of presiding over the destinies of every nation, in that, our problems aren`t surprise to Him, the most high, He always have relevance solution to our problems before it matters most to us, he had already planned the day and time of our exodus/departure from suffering before the day we fall into suffering.

He love us so much that he always carries our photographs in his wallet wherever He goes!, He had our name in the palm of his hand, please, gets courage, it is possible for God to do great things out of great messes!

Fellow citizens, to have the power to continue, one needs to be courageous, courage is the quality that enable one to face difficulty and danger with firmness, without fear or depression.

I know we have experienced several untold tragedies of broken dreams in the past, but we use to call them minor bends in the road to the kingdom of freedom and equality, so this bend in our road is not enough to be called a barrier or end of the road since we have opportunity turn and dream again. Please guys let us endure darkness for it shows us the stars.

My advice to you is, do not abort your dream just because Mayardit and Machar have responded to the voice of high called with their hidden agendas at the time of implementation of your wonderful dream. Enroll in the school of dreamers where is taught whenever things get rough, keep saying, “in my dream I never saw bankruptcy, in my dream I never saw auctioneers, in my dream I never saw scarcity, this not my portion!”

Fellow citizens, it is high time for you to find yourself and be yourself, this is the best time for us to move away from our negative patterns before it is accepted as part of our habits. Please be away from expired guys, never ever be their tool, expired people cause others to expire, expired people do not bury their dead (failures and losses), they mourn until the corpse gets decomposed and begins to stink.

This affects and infects them, after which they become sick and contaminate others. At the end of the day they make the world around them an expired place. Please beware of such characters. To conclude, my wonderful people of South Sudan, let us enroll in the institution of optimism, almighty Father is very rich enough and resourceful to give us everlasting peace and charismatic men that we are all yearning for.

And Ellen G. White had properly described them for us here, “the greatest want of the world is the want of men; men who will not be bought or sold; men who in their inmost souls are true and honest; men who do not fear to call sin by its right name; men whose conscience is as true to duty as needle to the pole; men who will stand for right though the heaven fall.”
