February 26, 2016 (SSB)  —-  First and foremost, I would like to pass my condolence massage to the families of Victim who lost their beloved sons and daughters into the hands of bad people in this country usually known to be unknown gunmen in the country. We know very well that, the killers are not from distant but within the country who are actually evilly derived by wrong thinking of their innermost hearts which always making them  killed innocence people with the aimed of getting money which is unreasonable.  However, unknown gunmen has not been approved exactly where did they come from? We know clearly the word unknown gunmen has been a common term used in the city for sometimes with in the nation. And the government has not been willing to resolve the issue of this threat move against it position.

The group has been working hard to destroy the image of the nation to keep the nation in trouble face-ward and to miss preach the nation at it position. Unknown gunmen have put the lives of people and normal activities in Juba at risk, putting the nationals at mistrust. All the people in Juba always accuse themselves when there is news of unknown gunmen. People really do not know who are these groups? According to my understanding these unknown group are in two categories of politicking the nation into mess movement. They are government opposition architect and the same time they are government speculators in the way that they are difficult to understand their mission at all. Therefore, they are working to overthrown the current government by any mean through killing the local citizens as their action always threaten government and their wishes is to prove  government failure to the people. While on other side, they are working to prove themselves to government that they are true supporters of current government through telling government allegations on what are not true at last through targeting innocence youth in the nation.

However, the right of those innocence people who were killed innocently will deliver themto us as well the constitutions of South Sudan will judge them according to their action. There is need to bring those people to book to face justice and accountability of those they have killed for several time. I appeal to security personnel to respect the national constitutions other than respecting leaders who has specialism in killing innocence People. Without doubt some security personal has involved in the killing of civilians as always reported by some media houses.

The report of unknown gunmen has been the issue not only in juba but across the country at roads and within towns threatening the civil population while doing their normal business in the country. This group has put the nation into insecurity where movement in town turn into hardship, everybody turn to be unfriendly in the town. The rate of criminality of killing people is growing high day by day without solution and therefore, the entire citizen has lost the trust on security agents. I appeal to the government to take general action on this issue of unknown gunmen to free the nation from angle of killing innocence people through protecting the civilian from internal criminal. Also, let the government use the local citizen within the nation to get data information for better security of its own citizen across the country.

Therefore, what I found here in Juba is terrible result of war crimes where in nonce people suffer within their nation but the worse of it is how people being  killed without reason afterward, it really not sound good at all if not bring to an end. I can’t take side on this point because who killed are South Sudanese people as well as those who were killed are South Sudanese, the question remain who lose? The country lose both side.  In my point of view, am requesting my all fellow South Sudanese to evaluate their opinion and move out from the political point of interest and focus more on the political point of view. By doing this we can stop the unreasonable killing of innocence people across the country and we will be able to overcome whatever challenge come across our nation and thanks
