Opposition leader criticizes new S. Sudan council of states
August 2, 2011 (JUBA) – An opposition leader in the newly created Republic of South Sudan’s has strongly criticised South Sudan’s president Salva Kiir’s appointment of the much anticipated council of states delegates, which was the outcome of a decree issued on Monday.
Onyoti Adigo Nyikwec, a member of a breakaway party from South Sudan’s ruling party – the largest opposition group in the former South Sudan’s Legislative Assembly (SSLA) – described the president’s directive as the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement’s (SPLM) “usual way of doing things”.
“That is their own [SPLM] affair and they can run this new country the way they choose. This government is not willing to work with the opposition. They simply chose to work with members from the five political parties with whom they drafted the transitional constitution,” he said.
Nyikwech, of the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement for Democratic Change (SPLM-DC), accused newly-independent South Sudan’s ruling party of deviating from agreed principles and running the state on a one party system.
“Where is the democracy when you only involve one party and a few members of those who subscribe to your views? We have started this new nation on a wrong note,” the opposition leader told Sudan Tribune on Tuesday.
Kiir, on August 1, issued a declaration establishing and appointing 50 Council of State representatives for the new nation, less than a month after he was sworn-in as its first leader.
The Council, according to the decree, will comprise of 20 representatives from Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM) drawn from all the 10 states of the country, and 30 additional members from “other categories”.
“In exercise of the powers vested upon me under Article 94(3) read together with Article 58(2) (a) (b) of the Transitional Constitution of the Republic of South Sudan, 2011, I, General Salva Kiir Mayardit, President of the Republic of South Sudan, hereby issue the following Presidential Decree for the Establishment and Appointment of the Representatives of the Council of States of the Republic of South Sudan…” partly reads the decree No. 11/2011.
NATIONAL LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY
Kiir also issued another presidential decree for the transformation and reconstitution of the National Legislative Assembly of the new republic.
The newly-created assembly, according to the decree will comprise of 170 members of the former SSLA, 96 ex-members of the Khartoum-based national assembly elected from southern constituencies and 66 members reportedly appointed under article 94 (2) (b) the country’s transitional constitution.
“In exercise of the powers vested upon me under Articles 56(2)(a)(b)(c) and 94(2)(a)(b) of the Transitional Constitution of the Republic of South Sudan, 2011, I, General Salva Kiir Mayardit, President of the Republic of South Sudan, hereby issue the following Presidential Decree for the Transformation and Reconstitution of the National Legislative Assembly of the Republic of South Sudan…” decree No. 10/2011 reads in part.
Sudan Tribune understands that both decrees are expected to commence with immediate effect.

23 opposition parties in the South Sudan. Where these parties during the war? and why only SPLM/A fought the war against the North by itself? this is ridiculous! when food is ready everybody demand more. I thought that these oppositions should be happy with 1%. Thanks

Mr. Onyoti Adigo Nyikwec
You need to shut up your mouth please.
Shown Southern Sudanese people what did your Party did all these years.? You do not expected to get more people and more positions when your opposition Party were lacking so many things in their common.
Listen to me please, South Sudan nation maybe will need only two Parties or three Parties to run the nation. I think president Salva Kiir was wrong to accepted five Parties rather than appointed only people from two Parties.
Party must not taken as a tribe and personal interest, the Party must have the platform which describing all theirs planning and for what they bleieves they are the best to take care of the nation’s problems. SPLM/ROSS have been trying all these days until you hear the recognization from the worldwide why are you skeptical for what.? Tell Southerners Sudanese people what did your Party do.? Political rhetorical and skepticalism for personal interest is not what the Southern Sudanese are looking right now, but they would like to see your plan and how you will make development that is what matter most to the people.

Better call yourself normal citizen. Party without message to people what it would do if it leads country, this is just a headach. Inclusive govenment is not a position or plateform for the party. A party should be more specific how it would do to people

Honestly, Southern Sudan would be comfortable with one political party…..Opposition in Southern Sudan will not work out like opposition in the western world.I hate it when an opposition lie because he/she wants to be heard..I hate it with all my heart…I hate it when an opposition photo copy, an existent political party, like splm-dc..I hate it when an opposition just bother government of the people…I hate it when an opposition accuse president of the people with Murder…Oppositions are 100% negative and I hate them with all my heart.

Two, three or four opposition parties would make sense, but twenty-three opposition parties! that’s just ridiculous.
The parliament need to amend the law, inorder to formed an opposition party, you need to have at least 200,000 supporting signitures by the general public.
This is just going out of control, common sense is no longer what it use to be.

Indeed the SPLM President Salva Kiir is trying to form a government of SPLM Unity and their satellites briefcase political parties in South Sudan.
How can SPLM’s Kiir government be called a Government of National Unity without involving the opposition parties in the decision making instruments of the newest state?
It is indeed a start on a wrong footing; a real sorry leadership for South Sudan.

Cruelty is contagious in uncivilized nuer communities just like what happeng among the nuer soceity where every one need to be leader or president of one country.for example
Riek kok need to be president, riek machar want to be president, gatat yak want to president, Gordon buay need to president, de Chan want to be president,polino Matip Nhial want to be president, maroko choul want to be president Dead militiaman gatluk Gai was also looking for presidence. and many more that i should not mention their names.
All nuer are nyagateen thugs regerding their objectives. they will stay like that till they finshed at all.
All their eyes are on presidence post. somethings they don’t have an ability to do it well.
what a shame.

Dear President Kiir Mayardit
why you favour only the pupet sectarian or briefcases’ Political Parties which supported you during your Transitional Constitution deliberation process which was mid of concerns? and What will be the fate of others eighteen Political Parties in South Sudan while you promised the southrners to form lean and broad based Government that will inclusive ones.
Yes, Mayardit I agree with you to change the name of SSLA to National Legislative Assembly(NLA) eventhough it duplicate with the name of the National Assembly in Khartuom but mind you to chosse good MPs in both houses because previously those whom were appointed and elected during April fraud election most of them if not all were youngsters in ages,please sir, this time take their qualifications and ages into consideration as you promised.
Southerners, tweenty three (23) Political Parties in South Sudan siblings is very ridiculous indeed,Therefore, I propose those breifcases parties to united their ranks into only five paties below as to balance the power with SPLM in coming election 2014:
(1) SPLM the ruling party in RoSS
(2) Republican Party
(3) Democrat Party
(4) Labour Party
(5) Liberal Party
Caution! Some individuals like George Bol above used to ask silly question of whereabout those political parties during the war?, well, those naives should come into their senses that liberation or liberty doesn’t means you participated in war as combatant or soldier, struggle is through many mechanisms being civilian,student, politician, fifth columnist and many more. The South Sudanes people participated in liberation struggle either dircetly or indirectly.Hereby, I have just compared it with a foolish question which Arabs used to ask what do the Southerners want? Waw! be civilise dude.

Dinka Bor Dominated Refugee Camp
Your xenophobia,jalousy and hatred toward Nei Tin Naath (non cannibals) ethnic groups is famous but I assure you that Nuer community will be in South Sudan whether you like it or not naive, selfish, slavehearted Bor orphan whose community sold their children to Murle for food since.
Thus, when did Dinka Bor became civilised and non greedy for powers? Your slavehearted,traitor and servant of Arabs who had been stamp at his ass Abel Alier confiscated Anya Anya One’s legacy and martyrdoms and became President of South Sudan Executive Council in 1973 instead of Anya Anya One’s leader Joseph Lagu.
Moreover,again your noctorious leader John Garang siezed the power from his own uncle Akuot Atem De`Mayen the proposed Chairman of Anya Anya Two after the Nuer leaders like those of Samuel Gai and William Chuol Deang were convinced by Vincent Kuany Latjor the founder of Anya Anya two in 1975 in Akoba to handed the power to coward Jaang as the result of their relaxed participation in both civil wars in Anya Anya One and Two consecutively. Vincent Kuany rebelled against brutal regime of Khartuom and killed their traitor from Dinka tribe known as Abel Akot who murdered Deng Nhial in 1964 in collaboration of Bor tribal leader Abel Alier and went to Ethiopia where he established Bil Pham in which Garang used as his military base.
Long Live the RoSS brought by 1991 split
Long Live generous and warior Nuer community
Long live Greater civilized Equatorians

Dear
you will not understand whether these briefcase parties were involved in the decision making of appointing theirs members to National Parliament both lower & upper house. these briefcase parties chairmen were consulted by the SPLM chairman here in Juba and the submitted their hand picked members after the agreed on percentages allocation without consulting their briefcase parties members.SPLM should not be blamed on this issue. So don’t be a critic for nothing. The SPLM Chairman has done the right thing, the cabinet will go the same

Dear Southerners,
The nation we had in less than a month has started issuing one party ruling it. All of us heard from our President when airing his words during Martyrs day that this newly born nation will be the nation for all. That’s free from corruption and ordering arrest of corrupted personal. And now he himself had started making corruption by keeping in all 170 SSLA SPLM members and bringing in also 96 NA based khartoum SPLM members.
My dear readers, corruption does not means only misusing of the national resources but even the system of the government (formation of the national government is corruption also).
Why did he [the President] keeps 170 members of the former SSLA, former 96 ex-members of the Khartoum-based national assembly elected from southern constituencies which and almost all are SPLM party and 66 members others. This means other parties represented less than 66 members from those others stated above.
Are you not now Contradicting to your saying at martyrs day? Why keeping these personals in their positions? Are you keeping them for your ruling.
Thanks

If you obeserve majorty of people fought the war. you will see the coward Dinkas as majority as you said it.
If you check since the struggle of freedom start. you will see coward Dinkas did not change the directions.
I am wondering how in the hell can a cowrad community lead from the very begening upto now?
That question will take you hundreds of years to answer.
For your information Dor aka nyagat Gaatdor Juat. you are nothing but a son of nyagat man who is trying his best to clean out the mass that your granparents brought to you.
I am doubt that you have a gut to confront Dinkas as a community and tell them that they are cowrad people and see what will happen.
You always claim your warrior. when are you going to bring it on to see that you are warrior? if you can not defead us during your colleberation with Arab? than what make you think that you can manage to fight with supwerpower Monjeng In other word DINKAS?

many nuer nyagateen whom i did not mention tried it but they fail.
and you know the result for the failure they got?
it result was surrendered to Dinkas by all nuer nyagateen Or in other words MONJENG AKA MAN OF THEY MEN.
Plus that i would be happy if i were Bor Dinka because i done’t get a shame of them since they were they very people who committed theselves to work hard in ordere to achieved the goal of freedom.
I am son of Dinka Bor Daughter and son of Awan Chan man/ father I am so proud to be in both side since they are very important people in south sudan and inparticular Sudan. my family are welknown in the stories of Sudan leave alone South Sudan.
We deserve to be honor by every living things in south sudan for what we have done and brought we liberate you out from slavery.
We are not cowrad otherwise if we were? we would’t have brought this opportunity to you nyagateen.
Your community is full of doom wicked, oafish gangster, looter, godless leaders, opportunistic people who love to take advantage out of other people work. and so many more, Your divided litle community will not do any things to us.
You can feel a shame and greedy but stick them into your butt and go to the toilet with them. you are not gonna do any things with them.
There is no where can the cowrad man rule over the brave man if you are not sick.
You can cry but that is how it work dogz

Diingdong.
You should be realistic about the faction you mentioned ,so that we know how many factions were engaged during the war.
Some parties were just created inorder to have opportunity in the government and others were assisting SAF to clear out SPLA in south sudan and now because of their failure to do so ,they ironically claim equal opportunity and incusiveness in the government which God do not allow them have.
Kuac
Sorry, remember your loyality to Bashir compare to that of Kiir.
Your participation will bring no change to the government.
My last word to these parties is take up arms and go to Abyei and you will claim sth.
Bol is right because it was SPLM doing the things and now there are so many claimants,please sit down hear from Mr.President.

Dr James Okuk Solomon,
Bogus dr okuk so called dinka dominated refugees why do you hide and panic? Don’t cal me dicking i am not your boyfriend. Your ability to loot and inability to rule is well received by the martyrs of self determination. Your meaningless war of raping and lootings Equatorians while acting as Arab agents of Ahmed Kongor Arop to assassinate Nuer leaders who were fighting for south sudan was detected by non other but the great generous Nuer civilians who protested against it daylight in front of Ganang in 1991.
Why don’t you feel ashamed to brag in south sudan that you have been undermining all along ?
Your desparate attempts to glorify your little dinka Akon is meaningless. We have defeated you fairly home and away.
How soon did you forgot your coward attack on Nuer in Kakuma where 1000 nuer reduced 50 000 dinka dominated refugees to 10 infront of the Kenya Special police force, free and fair defeat using our nuer technology weapons until the UN beg us to forgive you.
How many times do you want to take this country back? I warn you to dust your ass and refrain from such vampire of sucking the blood of self determination martyrs in cofins. Even I have learned that salvatore have already acquired ten money faking machines from china already and the oil money illegaly sold to Bashir in July is being kept in cofins at his home ready for transit to northern bhar gazal as dead bodies.
Wait, the blood of martyrs who fought for south sudan self determination is watching the one wicked doom dinka vampire salvator Dim who is sucking the nation’s blood in cofins

Opposition leader criticizes new S. Sudan council of states
This is a joke! This is why you will not have development in South Sudan, and all institutions or ministries will not fucntion well because of lack of sufficient finance. All money will go into pocketed salaries of growing bureaucracy in the government of south sudan.
I can’t believe that only just one branch of government, legislative, to have 332 members. where do you get the money to pay all these people? And why you want all these people to be legislators? Respect of a person I guess. Kiir respect those who were in the national government of the old sudan and he sees it not appropriate that these comrades of his to go straight home or be appointed to head other weak ministries, commissions, or other government agents which is what he should have done.
who makes up legislative branch? Only those elected by the people from their own constituencies or districts to make up the branch. However, here Kiir is using his power to appoint and inflate the branch with people of his choice. this is not good. It is done in a spirit of self-powered-interest.
When Kiir wants to do anything or make a decision, he has to think in line of government finance or budget and development. When he makes decisions like this, it means he is not even thinking about whether or not there is enough money to pay these people. I want to respectfully warn Kiir of this: do not enjoy issuing decrees. by doing this you are harming the nation. You are making yourself to be seen as a dictator. Please, encourage elections of government workers by the people whom they will serve. Do not handpick!

Opposition leader criticizes new S. Sudan council of states
This is not amatter to criticize, where do you think president Kiir would have taken this honourable who were in the government of national unity.Those of you who think that the decision made by the president is wrong,you are insane.its your chance you people in SPLM/DC to show us good leadership before the coming of the next election, but not througth critcizing aright decision made at aright time, by the right person.You are killing your party image of good governants.To me its my hope that SPLM/DC will rule this country one day, if you transform it by doing what people of Republic South Sudan want. so that they vote for you in the next election.
