Kiir directs internal affairs ministry to professionalize key departments

May 22, 2010 (JUBA) – The Newly elected President of the government of South Sudan, Salva Kiir Mayardit, has on Saturday directed internal affairs ministry to professionalize key ministerial departments a head of referendum.

The president who turned congratulatory visit by senior officers at the internal affairs ministry into senior security meeting, said he would he be pleased if ministry of internal affairs prepare and present plans at the next cabinet meeting.

“I would love to see important plans regarding how you intend to professionalize key departments of the ministry in the next cabinet meeting for discussions before taking them to the parliament for endorsement,” Kiir reportedly told three top officers at the ministry of internal affairs at his residence this afternoon.

On Friday, at his inaugural ceremony, president Kiir pledged to make security of the region one of his top priorities in the new administration by all means possible through encouraging reconciliation initiatives.

He is equally reported to have advised the three senior police officers to work on operational and motivational allowances of police forces in all the ten southern states.

The president is also alleged to have regretted continuous delay in salary payment saying it was unfortunate that he received reports that some soldiers including officers did not receive the April salaries on time due to some setbacks beyond police control.

President Kiir however said these are challenges his new administration would address at earliest possible in the coming months.

He assured officers that top executive organ in consultation with high police and other armed forces command will do everything possible to ensure soldiers on national duties are motivated to fairly and professionally discharge their duties.

He also added his government intends to make necessary arrangement to prepare armed forces towards the conduct of the southern referendum scheduled for January 2011.

    Dear Southerners,

    Security of South Sudanese is exactly the paramount issue toward the referendum. SPLM need to formed the right regulations that can stop the raiding of civilians so that those civilians will go with full capacity to the referendum without fear. I also support that SPLA must received their salaries at the right time so that they can stay active in their duties.

    I urged SPLM to encouraged those police to work according because most of them are just receieving their money while they are not working properly.I also want SPLM to give police guns to the States polices because the criminals and thieves always raid civilians because their guns are no longer in the civilians hand. The police must be the one to run after the thieves to bring back the cattle loots by criminals. Police must be armed.

    Before referendum, SPLA must be deployed in the border of South and North,and many in the Southern towns so that they can be ready for any aggression from the North.

    Salva Kiir Mayardit must integrated the militia of Paulino Matip into various areas in the South because they are just ganging with Matip Nhial for nothing and they are getting paid while they are not doing national duty, they are doing militia or private duties which deserved no payment.

    Who is Matip to have his own militia in the South? this activity must be excercise accordingly.
    Thanks

    I don’t think that all of this meaningless ideas will solve the real matter, born nothing means nothing for the entire trouble. We will never and ever have a better lifestyle under dictator. My question is, where is the evidence of $ 7 billion development in South since 2005? just fouling people with rubbish.
