South Sudan News Agency

February 15, 2013 (SSNA) -- South Sudanese folks under the current highly rampantly corrupt in a pre-born and a pre-failed GOSS in Juba that is incapable of governing itself has caused the citizens great suffering, hunger, disease, widespread of human rights abuses, social injustice, lack of freedom, democracy and equality as well as extremely entrenched ethnocentrism (tribalism) or the so-called “Mongjiengism” or a quasi Dinka supremacy or hegemony and Apartheid system in Africa’s newest failed state” of South Sudan.

Undisciplined, untrained and marauding SPLA forces have been responsible for all of the provocations and the dying of civilians who have been harassed, beaten and killed by the SPLA as a party’s army rather than a national army and the notorious national security forces led by killers and murderers. The SPLA and the national security forces have been responsible for different ethnic groups fighting within Jonglei State. It has provoked the Luo Nuer the largest nationality in the state with a population of more than 1.5 million people, and part of the largest homogeneous Nuer nationality in South Sudan that straddles also into southwestern Ethiopia of Gambela Region#12 according to Sudan 5^th Population Census in 2009 and one of potentially rich because of the discovery of oil and gas and other strategically critical materials in Greater Upper Nile States.

The GOSS has deployed secret tactics of committing genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity as well as ethnic cleansing under the pretext of the UN Disarmament, Demobilization and Rehabilitation (DDR) Program in the last few years and drastically failed in the process because the DDR had been conducted unfairly. The notorious unelected Governor Kuol Manyang Juuk, the State Government and the GOSS in Juba concentrated their efforts on disarming the Nuer majority, the strongest and potentially the richest nationality because of oil and gas discovered in the Nuerland in the late 1970s-1980s and then became the ‘oil hub’ of Sudan then and now the ‘oil hub’ of the banana republic of South Sudan. 

The Luo Nuer cooperated more than enough with the UN DDR Program and as they turned in their weapons; they had been constantly attacked by their neighbors the Dinka Bor, the Murle who were not disarmed and the SPLA party’s army rather than as the national army or sometimes a combination of the above-mentioned. The Luo Nuer has got the means and they re-armed themselves for self-defense from their neighbors who have failed to live and let us live in peace and in harmony. The re-arming of the Nuer also became a threat to the octogenarian and under educated Dinka power elites who had the ‘Nuerophobia’ in South Sudan like Europeans had ‘Germanophobia’ in Europe, the Asians had the ‘Japanophobia’ in Asia and the Korean Peninsula and currently the Western industrialized countries and the US had Islamophonia, Shiaophonia, Sunniophobia, including the Islamic Republic of Iran (IRI) ‘nukeophobia’ in Israel that had already stockpiled more than 400-500 nuke warheads in its arsenal in Demona, Negev, Israel.

The US as a superpower also had the North Korean ‘Nuclearophobia’ and the ‘Sinophobia’ in both marketplace economy and its inner secret weapon that would surprise the US when the Chinese would declare the “Yuan” currency based on the gold because it more gold in the world compared only to Germany and the Russian Federation plus its nuclear power. It does not matter anymore how many killed or died in Jonglei State, but there is one thing for sure though, democratic change or democratic transformation is inevitable to emerge not only in Jonglei state, but throughout South Sudan. The Dinka led GOSS has failed the Southern revolution because of greed, rampant corruption, embezzlements, widespread human right abuses in violations of the 30 articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights under the UNGA resolution 217 A (III) of 10 December 1948, Paris, France, and the Four Geneva Conventions and the Amendments thereunto and the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CORC) in South Sudan. 

The Murle realized that continued provocation against the Nuer majority was not in its best interest as a small minority within the State and South Sudan as a whole. It reckoned that the Nuer nationality is also living within the Murleland is not the enemy, but the real enemy has been the Dinka Bor. Of course, when the Nuer Youth retaliated against the Murle, the consequences were too severed against them. The two nationalities through consultations were able to sit down through the traditional and modern mechanisms of conflict resolution and resolved their differences and peace returned to the area among the Lou Nuer majority and the Murle minority.  

In recent weeks, however, the rebellion intensified against the weak GOSS by the South Sudan Revolutionary Forces (SSRF) that seeks truly democratic change or democratic transformation in South Sudan. The SPLA deployed Major-General Peter Gadet Yak to do another cruel and brutal disarmament against the Luo Nuer White Army (LNWA), the Nuer Youth Militias (NYM) and the Gokdeng (Prophet) Forces who had acquired new more arms for self-defense, further provocations and incursions from both the SPLA, the Dinka Bor supported by the GOSS in Juba against the Nuer and the Murle in Jonglei State.

About two (2) days ago or so, the SPLA went on rampage against the local Luo Nuer who was preparing to move on with their cattle and families to the grazing lands in the Toich. At night the SPLA came in with the military cars and attacked the local Luo Nuer and killed more than 123 mostly women, children and kidnapped or abducted more than 90 other children and claimed that the incident was committed by the Murle against the Luo Nuer in order to provoke another Luo Nuer-Murle inter-ethnic fighting. But according to an eye witnessed, it was not the Murle who committed this heinous crime, but the SPLA forces per orders from Bor and Juba. Based on direct reports from the area of the incident via telephones, it was rest assured that the killing of the local civilians without any provocation was committed by the SPLA against the Nuer rather than by the Murle. When the Luo Nuer retaliated, most of the dead were SPLA soldiers rather than Murle tribesmen and most of the cattle and all the kidnapped 90 children were all rescued. Tensions remained high in Jonglei State and unless something is done it could explode into a civil war between the well armed local Luo Nuer and the Murle populations against the SPLA forces.

Yesterday the Luo Nuer Youth went on to the streets demonstrations in Bor town and presented a written statement to Kuol Manyang and his government in which they gave him an ultimatum petition to let Juba know that enough is enough, that they would be ready to fight anybody in the state, that they would rearm every Nuer Youth from the ages 15 and older and that they would join the SSRF rebel forces to wage war against the failed GOSS and the state government. They gave the so-called Governor a dateline to give them an urgent response from Juba by today’s dateline or else all things could break loose. The Nuer Youth feel that the state government favors some citizens and disfavors others or social discrimination based on tribal lineages and that this has been one of the root causes of the confusion and inter-ethnic rivalries within the state. Secondly, they requested Slava Kiir to unconditionally dismiss the current notorious Kuol Manyang to go and to replace him with someone that would cater to all the citizens and that they would also be the people’s choice and accountable to the people’s power in the state rather than to Juba. Thirdly, they demanded the immediate transfer of the state power to majority rule with minority rights protected and, fourthly, state resources (wealth) be shared equitably instead of one man’s monopoly or a group monopoly at the expense of others that had been the case under the notorious Kuol Manyang and his protégés and sycophants rule in the past few years. Most of the state wealth had been utilized to develop only Dinka Bor County whilst other State Counties have been left underdeveloped, without electricity; road construction; schools; healthcare system; agricultural development; clean drinking water and socio-impact. This is a reflection of a ‘cluster’ development rather a universal approach for the improvements of all socioeconomic and political conditions within the state.

The Nuer Youth accused the UMISS for its failure to do its mandate by providing equal protection to the civilians’ population. They also call on the UN Secretary-General Ben Ki Moon to replace Miss Heilga F. Johnson as the head of UNMISS because she has been a registered and a card carrier ‘partisan’ of the SPLA party for years and she does not care much about the civilians’ population and the Luo Nuer and the Murle in particular, known to be anti-SPLA. They further called that the UNMISS to remain as a neutral body, that its needs to remain as neutral as much as possible in South-South affairs, and that it needs a neutral person to lead it rather than a ‘partisan’  in order to properly do its mandate.

Meanwhile, the SSRF rebels would intensify the armed struggle against the rampantly corrupt GOSS in Juba and calls on the people of the Greater Upper Nile region (Jonglei, Unity and Upper Nile States) to unite their ranks and files for ‘secession’ of the region as an independent and sovereign state from South Sudan. It would be recalled that South Sudan, albeit, ‘separated’ from the mother country- the Republic of Sudan- on 9 July 2011 because of alleged social injustice, domination, exploitation and oppression from our Northern brethrens. The current mode of operandi and mode of Vivendi has been far worse compared to our previous circumstances with the North because there was law and order instead of lawlessness. Civilians were not harassed, beaten and killed randomly without any probable causes because there was police protection. Nowadays, in South Sudan, it has become a lawless state and people die everyday without investigations of the probable causes of death, no autopsies done before burials and without remorse at all. The SPLA security forces have been responsible for all the deaths and many bad things that happened to the populations throughout South Sudan. We hope that the Governors of Unity and Upper Nile States would cooperate in this matter.

There have been also so many bad things and many bad cases of abuses committed by the SPLA throughout South Sudan that the SAF did not commit against the innocent civilians during the war years. In despite of the war between the North and South, there was good and extraordinaire civilian-military relations compared to what we have been experiencing in South Sudan with the SPLA as one of the most hated and disliked outfit by the civilians’ population. Because the SPLA has broken the law, we would not submit and then turn around to build up another ‘neo-oppressor,’ dictatorship and oligarchic rule in a pre-born and a pre-failed state of South Sudan that’s now moving from being an unstable state, to stateless and to statelessness similar to Somalia in the post-Sayaid Bari rule in 1992.

Therefore, the best solution for the South would be to break up into three (3) mini-states like it was divided in 1983 into three (3) autonomous regions per recommendation of Major-General Joseph Lago (ret.) and the Equatorians intelligentsia to the late President Al-Nuiemri that the Niolitics majority (Dinka-Nuer) dominated the then Regional Government. Instead of bloodshed, the best tenable reasonable alternative (TRA) solution would be for the South to disintegrate peacefully and politically into three (3) mini-nation-states of Bahr-el-Ghazel, Equatoria and Upper Nile resemblance of the Czech and the Slovak Republics during the days of Perestroika (restructuring) and Glasnost (openness) as the legacy of the former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev.

The current situation in South Sudan has been deliberately and willfully instigated, fueled and ignited by the Western powers under the umbrella of the US, Israel and the UK who have been venturing to utilize the GOSS in Juba as a surrogate to implement the orchestrated policy of the regime change in Khartoum. The GOSS, Sudan Revolutionary Front (SRF) and the SPLA-N do not have the guts and gusto to topple the democratically elected government for the first time in a quarter of century in the Republic of Sudan. The South Sudan Revolutionary Forces (SSRF) would provide the necessary protection to the local civilians in the countryside. We urge and appeal to all the good men and women in the SPLA to defect and join the revolution for social justice, freedom, democracy, equality as well the development of a constitution that enshrined the Bill of Rights for the protection and safeguarding of all the citizens. Slava Kiir’s must and ought to go through the people’s power, he would have to go and neither the US nor Zionist-Israel and Uganda would provide him protection.

Finally, we would call on the human rights watch (HRWs), the UN Commission for Human Rights (UNCHR), the UN Department for Humanitarian Affairs (UNDHA), the European Union (EU) to investigate all the abuses committed by the GOSS and the SPLA before it is too late. As I see it, Africa’s newest state is at the brink of making of civil war in South Sudan. We are afraid that South Sudan could become the next Pol Pot’s Khmer Rouge Cambodia (1975-1980), the 1994 Rwanda Genocide, the ongoing dreadful and treacherous war within Syria for the past 22 months and the Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo and Mali, West Africa. This situation could be averted if the world leaders, i.e., the African Union (AU), the US and the UK in particular, would do the right thing.

Press Statement By Greater Akobo MPs

Bor, February 11, 2013 (SSNA) -- 1. On 8^th February 2013, Murle armed militia launched a surprise attacks on unarmed Lou Nuer cattle camps in Mantor and Jeer while moving their cattle to the Sobat river, killing more than 100 and wounded 67 people.  The armed Murle Militia together with Murle youth who refused to hand over their guns to disarmament authority managed to get away with more than ten thousands head of cattle  and 23 abducted women and children.

2. Priors to this attack, Murle youth carried out more than 15 attacks against Lou Nuer villages in Greater Akobo despite the signing of All Jonglei Peace and Reconciliation Conference which was held in May last year.

3. In 2012, Lou Nuer community accepted the peaceful disarmament for third time and handed over their guns peacefully without resistant hoping that the government will protects them and their properties and now the result is disastrous.

4. The Murle community, which is known to be notorious in raiding, abduction of children, and women of other communities refused to surrender their guns to disarmament forces.  They have therefore continued to be the primary cause of insecurity in Jonglei State, and are heavily armed by David Yau Yau’s militia in such a way that SPLA forces in the State cannot dare to confront them.

5. While National government is on calling for peace and reconciliation for all South Sudanese people, Murle community chooses war instead of peaceful coexistent.

6. Therefore, we are appealing to National Government and International development partners to remove the Murle “license to kills” people without accountability. For last 18 months Murle, armed youth took advantages of unarmed Lou Nuer civilian by carry out systematic killings in Mantor, Jeer, Wek, and Romyieri, these massacres mounted an ethnic cleansing.

Our appeal to National Government and International Community

1. There is need for more SPLA forces to be deploys to protect disarmed civilian and their property from armed Murle civilian.

2. All children, women and cattle looted by Murle after Peace and Reconciliation Conference unaccounted for must be return to their rightful owners if peace has to prevail in Jonglei State.

3. Immediate provisions of emergency food reliefs to those affected by this senseless violent.

On behalf of Greater Akobo MPs in Jonglei State Legislative Assembly, we condemn this endless attack against innocent civilian by David Yau Yau and his allies’ militia in stronger words. We are calling for Murle people to accept peace and stability in our state.

Unanimous Undercover Group Sources: The Jonglei State, South Sudan’s affairs being leaked to public

The other ten Counties: Akobo County, Nyirol County, Uror County, Pibor County, Pochalla County, Ayod County, Pigi County, Twic East County, Duk County and Fangak County

Juba, January 31, 2013 (SSNA) -- [Edited] Peoples from above mentioned ten Counties are often being mistreated in Jonglei State headquarters, BorTown. Gov. Kuol Manyang Juuk has been silent, not doing anything about what his people has been doing toward people of other counties in BorTown since he (the Governor) took office in 2008. It is no secret that people are being killed in cold-blood, a murdering style. One incident even though it happened before he took office of governorship. Prior was the incident “in 2006 when people (murle sick people) were killed in Bor Hospital. Among those killed was Nyacho-Payam Administrator.” Up to now these kind of cold-blooded murders are going on in BorTown. Peoples are dying in miserable ways, according to undercover groups on the ground.

Worst of all, the Dinka Bor of Bor County are become even more discriminative to their own sub-tribes of: Dinka Hol, Dinka Nyarweng, Dinka Twic, Dinka Paweny, Dinka Atar, etc. This discrimination by Dinka Bor (Bor County) towards other Dinka sub-tribes of Dinka Twi (Twic East County), Dinka Nyarweng and Dinka Hol (Duk County), Dinka Paweny, Dinka Atar,etc (Pigi County). The undercover group says it is being fueled by these two disputes: Identities within (Dinka Hol, Dinka Nyarweng, Dinka Twic and Dinka Bor), and of course, the death of a person whom many people considered as their hero, George Athor Deng.

Since Gov. Kuol took office in 2008, there had been many incidents whereby cows from Dinka Twi (Twic East County) are being identified in Dinka Bor (Bor County) area. Yet, Gov. Kuol Manyang had been silence about the issue. Also, before Gov. Kuol took office in 2008 from former Gov. Philip Thon Leek. There was a murder of people from Dinka Hol and Dinka Nyarweng (Duk County) in BorTown. Some people among these communities consider the incident as a set-up by Bor County leaders to bring in Gov. Kuol Manyang so that their ideal of marginalization or indirect colonization of other tribes would be able to work freely without them being fear from other opponents whom they are trying to marginalized. They believe Gov. Kuol Manyang, who is their own son will chase away other sub-tribes’ from standing against their cover-up mission or discriminations against in Jonglei State works.

According to some sources from undercover group as good citizen for their people, the Gov. Kuol Manyang is being suspected as he might have knowledge about all these indirect mistreatments of other Counties’ people in BorTown. However, there was a time Gov. Kuol did intervene when some people from his Bor County trying to fire people from State job as their way to discriminate others, according unanimous undercover group reports.

The South Sudan unanimous intelligent source do claim that, the last year looting of cows from Mading Adiang of Ajuong Payam, Twic East County in which the cattle were returned later was the attack made by group of people from Bor County. The message also stated that, the Bor County group did invite Pibor County people to join them in looting of cows from Twic East County. Unfortunately, the Pibor County group did refuse to go for the looting plan, so the Bor County group went alone to Ajuong Payam.

Based on the same group of the undercover, Twic Dinka people had been complained to Gov. Kuol about their cows being taken by some citizens from Bor County. They usually go and identified and when they go and tell Gov. Kuol Manyang, there often be no response from Gov. Kuol Manyang. Also, last year the Youth office of Twic East County was attacked and everything was taken away from the office, yet there had been no charges been brought against the attackers in BorTown.

The unanimous intelligent source has confirmed that, the highway of Jonglei State name was being used as “Pibor” to sound like Bor name as everything has to be named Bor as their dominant symbol of their pride over others.

The demolition of Marol Market in BorTown which was occupied mostly by other Counties businessmen, was viewed by some citizens of Jonglei State as an intentional act by former Bor County commissioner. This one incident, there was no compensations to those businessmen who were illegally removed.

Many people from BorTown are complaining that there is discrimination in recruitment process in Dr. John Garang Institute of Science and Technology against other Counties’ students.

The unanimous intelligent source says that, the peopel of Dinka Bor (Bor County) have dominated the intelligent branch of South Sudan due to manipulation that was made by Mach Paul during the recruitment period of when the intelligent sector was formed and at the same time when South Sudan was still under Sudan. As it has been claimed, it is the reason why many people in the intelligent Department of South Sudan are mainly from Bor County, the undercover group as the work of Mach Paul to not have many people from other communities or tribes to join Intelligence Department Services.

Vice President Dr. Riek Machar apology in Juba in 2011 duing a ceremony which was organized by the Awulian Clan of Dinka Twic is right now being considered as it if the ceremony was created or organized by Bor County leaders. This is an attempt to try to demote what the citizens of Twic East and Duk Counties have done because people of bor county see them as different.

The agenda being forwarded right now in South Sudan’s government to divide Jonglei State into two States of: North Jonglei State and South Jonglei State according to this message, “The state is too large and is yet to be divided into North Jonglei State (NJS) and South Jonglei State (SJS) pending approval of the South Sudanese Parliament (Wikipedia).” This idea is not being liked by these Counties’ citizens who are having many chances to share South Jonglei State when that idea becomes really thing: Pibor County, Duk County, Twic East County, etc. According to undercover analogy, this is really really bad idea towards the above mentioned Counties. Because these Counties people are already incurred many abuses in BorTown from Bor County citizens. Pibor County people problem with Bor County people is based on long history of conflicts between the two. Dinka Twi, Dinka Nyarweng and Dinka Hol are now become enemies to one another due to their issues of identities messes. These sub-tribes of Dinka are already suffering in BorTown. They are being mistreated by Bor County citizens. For instance, many of them are being discriminated at State level jobs and Dr. John Garang Institute of Science and Technology. Especially, the discrimination is being applied to anybody who is against Dinka Bor name plus whoever doesn’t speak Bor Dialect. Furthermore, the idea behind division of Jonglei State is also being caused by the idea to demoting Gadiang from being built as next new capital of Jonglei State. Behind it too, it is being association as another way to destroy interests that might brought forth the sub-tribes of Dinka Twic, Dinka Nyarweng and Dinka Hol and others to be beneficial in new capital of Gadiang. The only advantage here for Pibor County, Twic East County, Duk County and whoever might be joining South Jonglei State if it is happen is still to consider the agenda of Gadiang as being the future capital of South Jonglei State. For instance, many people from other ten Counties had already avoided going to BorTown due to insecurity of their lives and other abuses there. As warning from Unanimous Undercover Group to President Salva Kiir, it is better to scrape this idea of Jonglei State divisions because it would even cause more problems than already known problems.  

Also, according to unanimous sources of intelligent; during the time of former Governor Thon Leek. The mess that did take his Duk County people lives at the time he was still at office of governorship, the incident was a made up to give chance to their own son, who is currently; Gov. Kuol Manyang Juuk. The idea behind this was to allow Bor County people to promote their agenda of dominance without fear because Gov. Kuol Manyang will protect them or he will not prevent them from doing anything they want.

Another ideal that been discovered by undercover group within Jonglei State and South Sudan as whole, Gov. Kuol Manyang have appointed every deputy of every Counties of Jonglei State from his own County of Bor. So the undercover group do questioning this, is it a law or something else being created in Jonglei State only?

Some sources of undercover group have recognized that; there are possibilities whereby most of the problems in Jonglei State are being created intentionally by some people from Bor County so that the state of Jonglei has to be divided into two or more in their favor of BorTown to continue as a State capital. In addition too, the reason is to allow Jonglei State people resources go to the building of their own homeland of Bor area. Plus it will also be their security advantage too.

Many citizens of Jonglei State had been questioning why more security forces had been kept in BorTown area and not being deployed over the vast areas of the State being affected the most within whole Jonglei State?

According to undercover group, every looting happen in Jonglei State has been spotted it is not Murle tribe alone, there are certain group people from Bor County who are also being considered as being part of the cattle raiding game in State, and Gov. Kuol Manyang wouldn’t able to condemn the group wrong doing against others. Even there are rumors from citizens in BorTown been saying that, people are being blood-cold murdered every now and then in BorTown and yet Gov. Gov. Kuol doesn’t say anything.

Recently, according to unconfirmed yet intelligent sources, the Dr. Majak Agoot has joined the game as well in project to divide Jonglei State into two States. Also it is being said, Dr. Majak is trying to destroy Twic East County by taking part of it and join it with Bor County to make One County from the mixes of two sub-tribes of Dinka tribe. According to majority of Dinka Twi people, they don’t like these ideas at all, either they are just allegations or true claim; again the Dinka Twi people don’t like these ideas to come to existence.

Also, the undercover group has discovered something wrong with people who are responsible for South Sudan’s map that was released on June of 2012 (SPLMTODAY website). There are many complains had been raised by citizens that there are some Towns’ names, villages’ names, and Payams’ headquarters names that are missing, and also there are some areas where map is not accurate based on analogy of the 1956 South Sudan’s map. So the undercover group is calling South Sudan’s government to makes some investigate about this case, and let those people be accountable for their wrong misrepresenting of the nation map.

Undercover group had learned that too; the Marol Market in BorTown was target intentionally by former Commissioner of Bor County because it was being occupied by many other Counties Shopkeepers. These Shopkeepers were told that they will not compensate.

Unanimous undercover group have learned that too, many citizens from Bor County don’t like somebody saying, “The Gov. Kuol Manyang should have been fired already like former Gov. of Lake State, Eng. Chol Tong Mayay”. Their replied often, “The firing of Gov. Kuol Manyang would be a disaster to President Kiir Mayardit leadership”.

The undercover group has learned that as well, the ideology from Bor County peoples are trying to do anything to spread their dominant agenda might have already penetrated into President Kiir's Administration. As the warning to President Kiir from undercover group, the President has to be attentive enough in his leadership in regard to any destruction.

Somehow as suspicious information from undercover group account reports, the death of Rev. Isaiah Diing Chan might have been done by Bor County intelligent personnel who are working in South Sudan’s government. These intelligent groups are having linking agenda with their sub-tribe of Dinka Bor who eager to spread their ideology to dominanate others. Furthermore, the undercover groups are saying that, these suspicions can only be proved relevant or non-relevant only if President Kiir released the actually name (s) and the tribe of the suspect (s) to public.

South Sudan Ambassador to US has been spot lighted by undercover group. And this is the case against the Ambassador; the Ambassador has tried in 2012 to give away one employee job that was given to that person in South Sudan before even that person arrived to the United States to come and start his job. The undercover group complains of Ambassador posting of that person position to many South Sudanese in the United States who had completed their higher education degrees for interview. After the Ambassador has posted the position; many South Sudanese who are dwelling in the United States went for interviews. These candidates were using their own money flying from long distances, plus others drove their cars from long distances for the job in which the employee is already there. Not that only, all these people lost lots of money at the time each and every one of them was rushing to Washington D.C. for the job interview  As recommendation from unanimous undercover group, the government of South Sudan needs to investigate the matter in case there might have been ethical violations made by the Ambassador in the United States.

On this issue of identity crisis, among these sub-tribes of Dinka tribe, the Kongor Clan of Dinka Twic (Twic East County) has been caught up on this issue. Based on unanimous undercover group intelligent sources of cover-up investigations, most of the denying of the Dinka Twic from Kongor Clan are usually being associated with Pan-Bior section of Kongor Clan (the former Chief Ajang Duot section) and few from the other two divisions of Kongor Clan. Some of these people are still holding-on to their old leader (Ajang Duot) who has part in identity problem. Ajang Duot and others from Kongor Clan did place the name Kongor as District name above Twi name on the map during his time of leadership as being Paramount chief of Dinka Twi (Twic East County). In addition too, based on some sources of intelligence from Dinka Bor (Bor County) side, there are people who are not even happy with Ajang Duot. They claim that, “Ajang Duot in those days of his leadership did try to impose the name “Kongor” to Bor Dinka (Bor County) people as well, but it didn’t work because his idea was identified by Dinka Bor (Bor County) intellects and leaders. And that might be the reason why some scholars from Bor County did reverse the attempt by imposing their name Bor too to other sub-tribes of Dinka through one way or another.” Furthermore, there are people from Kongor Clan who are still not happy in Twic Dinka name acceptance even though they know they know history very well. So they are rejecting Twi name due to Twic people refusing them to let their name “Kongor” becomes the Diocese name of Twic East. To confirm the claims, the Kongor Payam Church’s representative didn’t vote in 2009 when Twic East name was blessed as Twic East Diocese. The name Twic East was approved by four Payams of Twic East County plus other areas outside Twic East County representatives. 

Some of Kongor Clan leaders in South Sudan’s government and other areas have been accused of intentionally changing of Kongor Payam name headquarters which is originally known as “Pawel” to just “Kongor” which is their Clan name. Unanimous intelligent sources noticed that and ask some questions from citizens why the “Pawel name” was changed to “Kongor name”. Some citizens from Kongor Payam and other parts of the Dinka Twi are having some suspicious questions on that matter. Furthermore, according to unanimous sources, there have been a suspicious attempt from Kongor leaders to even try to changes the headquarters of Twic East County name which is “Panyagor” to just “Kongor”. However, right now that agenda might have been converted to “Pawel” name.

The undercover group have identified that; there are some scholars from Kongor Clan of Dinka Twic (particularly Pan-Bior) who have involved themselves in this scheme as well. Part of their missions is being associated with their rejection of Dinka Twic name because they think the whole Dinka Twic has to be called by their Clan name, Kongor.

This article was a collected effort by Unanimous Undercover Group of South Sudanese who had been volunteered in monitoring of Jonglei State affairs for quite sometimes now. They are around the globe, Jonglei State, South Sudan, Africa.
