I don’t think Dr.Riek Machar is going to be put behind BARS for one hundred and ten years like Robert Allen Stanford,but i think Fifty years behind BARS may be good for Dr.Machar.

That Picture a lone was the one which made gen. Kiir to tide his tail between his legs and call for IGAD to sign the peace.
Now Kiir is done, he is already made ceremonial president but who will know this from Dinka since they thought having a name though no power is better. Catch horns of our cow (South Sudan) then we will milk it!

That is true Mr. GatNor……………and peacefully they will pave way for FEDERALISM, because they know that Dr. Riak already admired and favoured federal rule and any leader supporting this FEDERALISM definately win the coming election……………….I am afraid the jengelon Council of elders will tell Kiir to Accept federal system so that he wins.

But it is too late because the time has already given us full explanation that the jengelon love land grabbing and this is done by the support of any jenge leader.

My name is DINGINT NA TUGGÖ, and it means only time can explain. Right now the time is telling us that FEDERAL RULE is the suitabls system for the People of South Sudan because it has been the popular Call since 1947
