April 2, 2015 (Nyamilepedia)—–I know many people out there have thought of this initiative and many might know how the Radio Service can really help the SPLA-IO to mobilize and create a rapid awareness to the south Sudanese communities who are there in their villages misinformed by the government of Salva Kiir since the outbreak of the carnage and pogrom against the Nuer ethnicity.
Dear supporters and fans of SPLM/A Resistance movement as a whole, I will like to draw your attention to convince the top leadership for the importance of Radio Service at this particular time where our supporters are really in need of our objectives, visions, missions and the way forward to create the south Sudan we all want.
The movement need to extend awareness and mobilization to the people out there in their Tukuls through the help of the Radio Service. They need to brainwash them so that they refrain from Juba SSTV that always feed them with uncooked information that based on tribal basis programs.
SPLM/A as a struggling movement that aim at bringing reforms and changes to the nation need all faces to join the movement.
SPLM/A –IO is not for politicians nor soldiers only, but for all the people of South Sudan of which it is the people in the rural areas that are the backbone and the first priority for the Movement to flourish. They need to be aware!
I ought the top leadership, military wing, Politicians, Business groups, Youth Leagues, Women Leagues and the entire supporters of the movement to help me in this campaign. My voice alone will not ring.
Our people down in the villages are not aware of the root cause of the conflict especially in Greater Equatoria and Greater Bhar el Ghazal, they need awareness and mobilization. And this should be done so easily if there is a Radio wave Service covering the whole country.
The Merits of the Radio Services.
- Act as the links between the leadership and the people in the remote areas.
- The Radio must work to create awareness to the people in rural areas that have no access to internet.
- The Radio service must work to mobilized people to join the movement.
- The Radio service will also work to preach the root cause of the conflict and change the minds of people who were misinformed by the tyranny government.
- The Radio can be use by the Spokesmen and women in the leadership to air the names of people who join the movement if there are any so that the moral of the army and that of the fans can be high.
- The Radio should be use by the concern department to inform the supporters in case of any development if there is any.
- The Radio can be use to dismiss mere allegations and refutes fake accusations that might cause doubts to the members of SPLM/A
- The Radio can be use to host opposition cadres to aware the public about the ongoing peace process in Addis Ababa.
- The Radio service can be use for hot debates and presentations.
- The Radio can transmit news on daily basis. And many more others.
If you people can reminisced/ recalled those years of our struggle with Sudan, the Army under the command of Dr. John Garang De Mabior Atem made it possible that all people are reached by the radio coverage used to be hosted by the Late. Marum Dut an officer working for SPLA. Why not this time that technology has emerge?
In my own opinion, the establishment and the setting up of the Radio Service for the movement is vital and extremely important in many perfections.
This call need no ignorant just because it comes from minor voice. It should be done at once for the benefit of our movement and it multiplication by multitudes of people who wants change and reforms but do not know our objectives, visions and missions.
I have spoken my words and may gods of the land hear my voice……………….

You are true nationalist,and your opinion must be implements,if it need contribution using money is ok.
Sirir Gabriel Yiei Rut,
You brought up a good idea, it would be best idea for the SPLA-IO to have radio to broadcast their events. Having radio would make SPLA-IO well known outside world. However, the SPLA-OI is not allow to access major media such as BBC and El Jazere for unknown reason and I believe the same reason is preventing SPLA-IO to have it own radio to broadcast their errands.
The moment should post infos on what number and email to be contacted and how one could have their donations reach the intended account. Post this on a public domain for easy access the best way of crowd funding. Do this either once or twice a month to keep donors upto date until a goal of a certain amount is reached. Tell your supporters and sympathizers an exact target amount you must generate in order to get this radio project going. list all the equipment it needs. can you take equipment if donated to you as parts? I think a radio is a great idea and I would be tuning in to listen to updates if possible.
this should have been the first step taken immediately after the rebellion,how ever its not very late yet.that is a very brilliant idea you don’t feel nor see but let me tell u that many of us are your true supporters we are behind u and monitoring any single evens that takes place.
long live SPLA.IO long live federal refublic of s sudan
Radio: the opening of the radio its the most importaint step within the movement because it will delivering the information to every one who support the movement very soon and it will keep the moral within the militry in different front line within different part of the country, so that radio station must be conducted to include all speaking language of our country taking Arabic and englist to be national news language
