Warrap state armed raiders attack Unity state

March 9, 2010 (JUBA) – Security sources have reported a fresh tribal clash as Warrap state raiders attacked a buma in Mayom county of Unity state.

The attack which occurred on Monday is said to have left six people dead and 17 wounded.

An estimated more than one thousand heavily armed Dinka civilians were believed to have launched the attack into the neighboring Mayom County, inhabited by a Nuer section, in a surprised 2AM dawn raid on a number of homesteads as people were sleeping.

No casualties were yet confirmed on the side of the raiders who ran away with 1,800 heads of cattle as they were reportedly being pursued by the villagers.

Among the six casualties some are believed to be women and children.

The confirmed death toll is yet to be confirmed by the authorities on the ground.

Inter-state armed cattle raiding have mostly affected the three neighboring states of Warrap, Unity and Lakes, in addition to Jonglei state in the eastern side of the Nile River’s bank.

Authorities in the states concerned have done very little to stop it.

    Dear Readers,

    The Dinka civilians with the suport of Kiir and SPLA intelligence open a pandora box of violence against other communities. This is the beginning of post-election violence in disguise before the election started. kiir & his poor Warrap Dinkas do NOT want election to go on in unity State. The Dinkas have rather Taban as their economic life-line in unity State or violence as they practicing now, cowardly coming at 2:00a.m while the civilians asleep. Wait for April 13, when the post-election violence break-out.

    The Poor warrap Dinkas have no one to blame. They started the violence with the help of some tribalist SPLA intelligence in Warrap State. Soon will be paid with the same violence coins. Blame Kiir & Salva Mathok Geng’s bloody-hands for the next uncontrolled violence in the poor Warrap.

    Exactly to what I say to poor paralyzed Dinkas boy on this forum. On previous incidence he claim that Nuer, murle and Mundari are the only people with guns, Now I would like Dinkas boy to tell me where exactly did these weapons come from? damaging the image of innocent communities will not solve your problems, it is good to talk on generalism and blaming GOSS which is Slava Kiir Mayardick. I hope you understand why I am always addressing the truth. Another question is where were the 5000 police in Bor, why can’t they rush to the spot and save the poor civilians?

    Mundukurus are really at work!

    I condemned that if it has really happened. But for sure it is a baseless aligation from the mundukuru oriented journalist.

    This is just but sub-standard report form a poor foolish human being who claimed to have been to school of journalism.

    How sure is the reporter here about who raid who and what quontity of the raided substance were taken.

    Please don’t incite our peace loving states for no reason. Your lies shall remain like a dog’s night bark.

    Please dear people of Warrap and Unity state, the above is a clear mundukurus planes way of destroying you and you must look into it with your usual wise eyes and your administrative lens.

    Shame on the mundukurus and their boots lickers. we will defeat you in the name of Democratic Republic of South Sudan(DRSS)

    Go a head barks me!

    Be bless,

    Deng Akol Agut-tungduon, a man far away from tribalism and corruption,a true liberator from the liberators.
