Machar calls on Jongei state communities to stop violent conflicts

December 15, 2011 (JUBA) – The vice president of South Sudan, Riek Machar, has called on the communities in Jonglei state to stop their violent conflicts.

Machar made the appeal on Thursday in Juba following reports that a revenge attack was under way against the Murle ethnic group, by Lou-Nuer and Greater Bor communities.

The cycle of violence in the state has intensified over the last six years resulting in the deaths of thousands of people every year, coupled with attacks from the forces of renegade George Athor.

He urged the Lou-Nuer and Dinka communities not to carry out revenge attacks against the Murle.

Machar urged “the people of Lou-Nuer, Twic East, Duk and Bor South not to move beyond their borders in trying to carry out revenge attack against the Murle community.”

Machar also called on the Murle community to release the children and women they abducted from the Lou-Nuer and Dinka communities.

He said the national government was consulting the state government to find ways to revive the reconciliatory processes among the communities.

He explained that the government will deploy more Sudan People’s Liberation Army troops and police forces to the volatile areas, to deter revenge attacks and create buffer zones between rival communities.

    Disarm Murle intensively as Late Deng Aguang did to Taposa during the liberation struggle. Murle are wild beast in human flesh and so do Lou-Nuer to some extend. Bor Dinka are just victim backbiters who will never come up and attack others unncessarily which some time good. But gossiping harm than frank speaking. put a full bregade of SPLA in Pibor afterall SPLA had choppers assign one to murle!

    You have said the good words but i am doubt that so celled murle will listern to you.
    Murle are just like parasite who live by sucking other’s people’s blood. this small and smell drity murle must be wipped out of South Sudan for peace to prevail. i hop those Bor and Lou are reall going there because there is no treatment apart from revange.

    I dont believe these communities are waging conflict against wild Murle.I personally authorised these communities to give any lttle disciplinary action to Murle. This community should not be treated like a part of state or country. The Murle turn to be enemy of s.sudan. All trocities caused by Murle tribe are shifted by some people to Athor leaving Murle not escapegoat of the disaster in the State

    Do you know what cause the genocide in rwanda in 1994? it was not a political, it was misbehave,to perpetuate peace like in the way Murle are doing in s.sudan! when people respect peace and boundaries, you use that as weakness against that group! What is legitimate case for murle to terrorized others like this? poverty is across s.sudan, not only in murle! they cant used it as an execuses!

    Criminals Murle let the innocent murle suffer in the hands of two communities Nuer & Dinka. The only solution is to take BOL MADUT BACK TO BUMA, he knows how to deal with criminal murles. Because not all murle are criminals.

    I also suggest it is be good idea for Dinka bor & nuer to unit very strongly and clean all those rebels in your state and capture Athor and then go after criminal murles. TO do that you will free enough.

    Unfortunately, the chimpanzee family of Omoni Jr remain as a chimps and thus needs some speech therapy so that Omoni jr chimpanzee family can communicate with us before any attempt to civilize them and other omoni apes species! Sorry again for inconvenience! Mr Omoni and his Chimpanzee family are very lucky indeed to have been discovered by the Muslims of Sudan who fear God;..cont

    NO WAR PREPARATION,

    Riek put this information out just to show his support to Murle who killed innocent children and women last week. It is reported that the attackers are operating under his guidance through Ismael Konyi and will come back anytime.
    When Lou fought with Murle, why didn’t Riek say anything?
    Why starting condemning Bor for being peaceful instead of condemning Murle.

    Folks,

    Why attack the very tiny Murle community as a join forces instead of dealing with them separately? The Lou Nuer Warriors did not and will never ask for join offensive with coward Jaang/Slaves against very tiny Murle becuse they are capable of dealing with Murle unlike coward Jaang/Slaves.

    If the news did circulate in Juba about Dinka Bor and Lou Nuer to attack Murle in return then why there is no news about Murle attacking those tribes mentioned above? This Murle thing is been there for a long time but Dinka put peace first else Murle would have not existed if Dinka are not peace loving people.

    Why exactly Reik Machar called when Lou-Nuer and Greater Bor communities were attacked, he kept silent? Reik really still has malicious intention against these communities whom he brought disasters upon them in 1991. Murlei killed thousands of persons in Greater Bor and Lou-Nuer, but Reik didn’t call in such a tone until now. You Reik Machar and Kuol Manyang, you are no longer our Upper Nile sons

    The Voice of the vice-president is exactly how a voice a true leader might sound. Riek is aware of how the North and the south sudan trying to destray Ala-nil foundation through political manuevering. Jongeli is the stronger force in the whole South Sudan in term warriars and great thinkers, and the only way to finish them is to turn them against each other. Youth and intelectuals must be careful

    Mr. Isaac Khamis,

    I believe your figures are wrong. Where did you get these figures?.

    1. Murle populations is less than 35,000.
    3. Nuer’s are the second larges tribe in south Sudan.
    3. Nuer population is only around 87,000.
    4. According to you, the entire Nuer population is 988.000, were did you come up 118.000 Nuer people?.

    Dear Southerners,

    The Jonglei state problem will give everyone in Sothern Sudan headach. So the only solution for Jonglei problem is removing Koul M Juuk from governorship and gives that post to one of Pibor or anyone else within Jonglei state. If government does that, the problem will stop I am sure and optimistic.

    OOh finally, the South Sudan leaders are waking up from their snooze and hangovers, lazily urging the communities to stop fighting. Can we please get some clear strategies on how to deal with this problems? Just sending in the army and police forces is good but not enough. The government needs to come with some clear and strategic programs to unite these communities. Why is Konyi silent?
