October 1, 2016 (SSB) — Many Aweilians give thanks to their sons who agreed to forgive one another for the sake of peace and unity between themselves. The Community has done its part to reconcile you as the brothers and heroes of our nation.
It’s their role to bring you together in the spirit of brotherhood to share the common interests being at state, regional and national level in your field of military and other political aspects as men who served together in liberation struggle against the government of Sudan, when South Sudan was not an independent state.
We encourage you to team up with other generals of Aweil Community to make us great than shame. We are no happy when we hear differences about you. The new chapter we need from you is love, harmony and peace but hatred, segregation and jealousy to be put aside and embrace the spirit of togetherness. The more you are divided, the weak you will become.
