"We the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, with so little, for so long, we are now qualified to do anything, with nothing" By Konstantin Josef Jireček, a Czech historian, diplomat and slavist.
Kuol Manyang Juuk and President Salva Kiir Mayardit
What is the exact definition of a problem to Comrade Salva Kiir? From the outset, President Kiir declares that he doesn’t have any problem with the outgoing Minister Mayiik Ayii; he then dropped the bombshell as to why he was fired: sabotaging the construction of the BEG highway. In the neighboring sister nation of Kenya, heads are rolling for sabotaging the legacy of a sitting president. Given the nature and magnitude of the allegation, I think it would be in the best interest of Hon Mayiik Ayii to make a public statement, clarifying the issue cited by the president.
