June 14, 2015(Nyamilepedia) — SeeKiir speaking on the national television in his native language. Watch him clutching arms and kissing the hands of the Ugandan’s dictator,YoweriMuseveni, the very hands that are filled with the blood of our beloved leader, Dr. JohnGarang deMabior. Witness him says one thing and does the exact opposite.
The debate over Salva Kiir’s responsibility in turning the country into a morgue is never-ending. Certainly, there is something drastically wrong about Salva Kiir Mayardit. And it’s not the virtual lack of formal education. For example: my father, the late Kuth Dak Mut didn’t go to school. But he was armed with a natural Ph.D. in wisdom, vision and common sense. He was an outstanding Judge and a beloved community leader, whose advice on matters life and death was in high demand.
Salva Kiir’s problem is: ignorance, arrogance incompetence, character and judgement issues, among other components that clearly aren’t presidential. Therefore, no one should ever be taken by surprise as to why he had established one of the most corrupt state the world has ever seen.
We know how difficult it can be to govern, but it takes an honest person who really is willing to serve all of the people, not just a few- with dignity, integrity and respect. In the words of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., ” If you want to be important, that’s wonderful. If you want to be great, that’s wonderful. But recognize that he who is the greatest among us shall be your servant.” Meaning that everybody can be great because everybody can serve. Everybody has the power of greatness because greatness is determined by service.
By contrast, we have a president in South Sudan who has devoted his regime to destroy the nation, committing a massacre against innocent Nuer civilians, and he is increasingly becoming a detour to the nation’s health and reconciliation. Today, under this totalitarian dictator, South Sudan is not a country, but a tribally segregated societies. Now, here looms a question: do we really want to continue going through this crooked road, or do we need a straight path that will bring anybody and everybody along?
The danger of following Kiir’s path couldn’t be clearer. Today, South Sudanese do not live under the same rules. There is one tribe that’s controlling the nation in every aspect imaginable. the eventuality is that, all those who are left out will inevitably hit the breaking point, and their voices are only going to get louder and louder each and everyday Kiir continues to be at the helm. More so, it will likely result in the split of the country on tribal lines, something that will not be good for everyone. So, South Sudanese who care about the future of the country have their work cut out for them. They must- in a hurry- make a choice about what they want the country to be be like in the future!! Do you want a country only for one tribe, or a country for all?
In our view, inclusiveness is a necessary ingredient for a truly successful and sustainable country that we can all be proud of, again.

Dear Mr. Luk Kuth DakÂ
The caused is Riek Ebola, Kiir Mayardiit, and the rest of 25 elites on top of former and current SPLM: these leaders have treated the average citizens of South Sudan as if they were passive when it comes to participation in public issues. Because of all that , the system these Greedy and illegal invasion and looting leaders are striving to create is not being driven by the ideas or the best interest of our citizens of South Sudan. Amongst these group politic disabilities are the key here.
So for your article it has nothing to do with tribal emotions Domination; but the above mention issues.
I speak my words out and May God be with the people of South Sudan.
no thing with dinka leader, how can the greed heart would given the post of leader ship? Dr riek is the root of this problem because if he didn’t favor Kiir to be leader this problem would be happen in country.because even riek was leader an
d there is civil war in the country riek him
would never bought foreign troops to defense his government like what Kiir is government doing now….
fearing with one tribe nuer.this conflict will not finished even Dr got seat .nuer are black heart if they got suffer with thing they have no for giveness
Killer Kiir and his cronies the Dinka of looters and national traitors will not listen to anyone unless Museveni’s UPDF the life support of Killer Kiir’s genocidal regime halt protecting them period. The incompetent killer Kiir, Kuol Manyang, Ambrose Riik, Bona Malual, Deng Dau, makuei liar, Aguer Malak Ayuen, and the rest of their loyal Blind disciples are determined and irreversibly bent to enslaved the 63 patriot tribes of South Sudan for eternity. Luk, No amount of advice, critism, and public outcry will deter them from implementing any ethnic cleansing campaign.
Abuchook you as dinka will never understand nationalism`concept just for simple reason 99% of dinka are tribalists and just only 1% are nationalists or patriots. Dinka believe that they are born to rule ,and for the time being dinka occupies 70% in government .this indicates that the government which is claimed to be national government is just representing one tribe ,shame on you idiots,if you think that this will go on likewise you are decieving your selves ,things will get changed soon when all south sudanese pick up their guns agains you to kick your ass .the day before yesterday dinka council of elders assembled to look for kiir successor, go on with your stupidity and face quensequencs soon animals.
pj you are idiots like your Nuers fiends, the government is not the government the tribes to be divided among the tribes, it doesn’t matter which tribe is ruling, jiengs (Danish) are most likely to be honest tribe in south Sudan. please let them continue governing us thanks you for your consideration.
Please breather Nuer, you are for sure rallying behind a person whose his profile is outdated. Dr. Riek has lost popularity you better look for somebody else apart from Him. he never learnt from his mistake, in 1991 and again in 2013! you better rally behind Taban Deng gai and leave Riek alone.
I don’t blame the jieng in general, but he who came up with the idea of forming the jieng counsil of elders is the root cause of all these messes around.
Nuerfolks lack humanity and are endowed with Gothic behaviors. Worthless fellows.May God curse you.
As South Sudanese president Kirr can’t rules the country himself. The only thing that is needed now is for him to peaceful step down in order to stop this ethnic war in the country and he should be patient to wait for the next coming elections and if God is by his side he will definitely pass again but not military ship ways of ruling. God elect his leaders through his servants. My advice to him is to get a solution to the existing problem now before things worsted in the country. God bless South Sudan.
While Dinka are born to rule, Nuer are born to cause destruction! What a curse tribe in South Sudan. SPLM – In Opposition is 99% Nuer, if it comes to power today, how would we call that system. The author of this rubbish article – Mr. Luk Kuth Dak is an advocate of tribalism. He can cry as loudly as he could, but only his barbaric Nuer will listen to his nonsense. Good luck with your tribal chief Khartoum’s oil guard aka Riek Machar and we’ll see how he would get to J1 presidential palace in Juba.
