July 27, 2016 (SSB) — One day we will learn that the heart can never be totally right if the head is totally wrong. Only through the bringing together of head and heart- intelligence and goodness- shall man rise to a fulfillment of his true nature. Neither is this that one must be a philosopher ora possessor of extensive academic training before he can achieve the good life.
I know people like Dr. Majak Agoot, of limited formal training who have amazing intelligence and foresight. The call for intelligence is a call for open mindedness, sound judgment, and love for truth. It is a call for men to rise above the stagnation of closed -mindedness and the paralysis of gullibility. One does not need to be a profound scholar to be open minded, nor a keen academician to engage in an assiduous pursuit for truth in South Sudan.
A couple of days ago, I was dumbfounded to watch Dr. Majak Agoot’s interview live on American TV in US, proposing a Foreign Military intervention which is purely for a regime change. Do you think will rule South Sudan when Kiir is gone?
In fact, I am not a god to judge who will hold the reins of power in South Sudan after Kiir Mayardit, but I know Majak will never sleep at J1- (State House) in the Republic of South Sudan.
You will never hold the instruments of power and sword at John Garang Mausoleum any day. There is an English old adage saying “Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely”, which is precisely what has happened to you because your mind has been corrupted by the power that you will get a happenstance to rule. You have forgotten what a sovereign nation means.
Nevertheless, do you have ethos of patriotism, nationalism and pride for your own country? You sacrificed your life to fight passionately and assiduously for more than 22 years during our struggle for Independence and freedom.
Can you recall when you took up your arms and fought against an incorrigible regime in Khartoum?
It is not imperialism and pre-colonialism which you detested in the old Sudan. Do you think you are not welcoming back an imperialist regime under aegis of humanitarianism?
Today, I would like to recommend to you a book which I have finished reading a couple of weeks ago about Foreign intervention in Africa. This is the title of the book, (Foreign Intervention in Africa: From the Cold War to the War on Terror (New Approaches to African History) Paperback – May 23, 2013)
