Malakal, Let us stop misbehaviour among the southerners
My views about what happened in Malakal, why it happen/ and what will be the result of it
By Senator/Sam Simon
Dec 1, 2006 — I am deeply sorry to heard again that the innocent people are still being kills while the CPA is confirmed to be the key of the serving lives in the South Sudan.
What happen again today and what will be the end of that second bloodshed among the southerners after CPA instead for the Southerners to look for the coming victory in the end of 6 years Interim period.
One time I talks about the unity of the south Sudan, that if we want the freedom and justice in the South Sudan, we should all leave behind what happened in the past whether in the bush or inside because we must all know that the South is not a property of any one but for all southerners in which every body as a Southerner must walk free either he is from SPLA or from the SSDF and the southern civilians people must enjoy good life for them to forgot the serious difficulties which have been facing them for the last 21 years.
The second thing he that there is no militias in the South now ,the South militia whose were in the South before Khartoum Peace Agreement and FPA of 1997/98 but after the KPA the SSIA has been formed to the known military force call SSDF under Lt. Gen. Pualino Matiap Nhail after the return of Chairman of SSIM and C.I.C of SSIA Dr. Riak Machar Teny in 1999/2000 if I am not wrong
The remaining of somebody like general Gordon Koang Chol,general Benson Kuany Lajor and other senior officers of SSDF whose well known in the SPLA/M before Nasir declaration of 1991 can not be call militias,for instant,if the heros of SPLA/M historical officers,CDR/ Kerbino Kuanyin Bol, CDR/ Arok TRhon Arok, Moslana/Martin Majir Gai,William Nguon Bany still a life they can not be called militias while they were the root of the SPLA/M history?
If there is a mistake, it should be from Dr. Riak Machar Teny who brought them to NIFG because those officers like south Sudan historical wars struggle General Gordon Koang Chuol who fought for the south since 1955 up to this moment and did not surrender to Khartoum rule can not be call be call militia.
If its because they should returned to SPLA/M with Dr. Riak Machar in the time when Dr. Riak decided to return back to SPLA/M, what was the reason when Dr. Riak make a regimes against Dr. John Garang in 1991? And when Dr. Riak also decided to go back to Dr.John Garang he did not even explain the reason of SSIM/A going back to SPLA/M that is why Dr.Garang gave an example that Nuer is like a wife who can run away from her husband in the morning and come back in the evening.
So today if thing return back worst in the south again, our role as southerners is to leave behind the challenges of one another and look for solution instead of who are you.
What happen between Anya Nya 2 and SPLA from 1984 to 1994 must not be repeated again if the SPLA/M and SSDF leaders need the south to be peaceful country in the future.
The people of the south today must respect one another and look for strong unity.
South Sudan must be strong build through respect and forgivness among the southerners.
Let us stop misbehaviour among the southerners.
