Unity state Community asks South Sudan President to remove Governor Taban

Saturday 31 October 2009 printSend this article by mail

October 30, 2009 (JUBA) — The Unity State Community in Juba urged the President of southern Sudan to remove the state Governor saying he failed to wine the confidence of the post-war citizens of the State despite the Governor’s several years as a governor."

Unity state Governor Taban Deng Gai

Over three hundred people from Unity State met on Saturday October 24, 2009 at Juba Bridge Hotel to discuss social, political and security developments in their State.

The meeting comes after deadly clashes between SPLA troops loyal to SPLA deputy commander in chief and troops under the command of the governor Taban Deng on October 2. Twelve SPLA members from both sides were killed in addition to four civilians.

In a four page appeal to Salva Kiir Maydrit, the community leader requested the removal of Taban from his post as governor saying he failed to improve the political, social and economic conditions in the oil rich state.

"The political, social and economic life in the State has gone from bad to worse and mass migration and displacement to counties and to the north become a frequent situation due to individual insecurity and the striking hunger in almost all the counties. The State has gone over six (6) months without salaries."

The Community also said the October 2 clashes were "caused by the political tension prevalent in the State for the last two years." Their statement is in opposition to the explanation made by the southern Sudan army which said Bentinu clashes were an SPLA affair and denied any connection with local politics with the incident.

"We strongly believe that the recent clash of the Bodyguards of Taban and that of General Paulino is a creation of Taban insistence to cling to the power and leadership of the State not admitting his failure to institute good leadership," the community further said.

The statement of the community asked the President of southern Sudan government to recall the senior officers of SPLA Division 4 who attacked the troops of General Matip and to replace them with "officers who can serve the interest of the citizens indiscriminately."

They also pointed blaming finger to Salva Kiir saying "people’s will has been resisted by your leadership." Adding he had relieved governors of states like Warap, Northern Bahr El Ghazal, Lakes, Jonglei and he has to remove Taban based on the same "principles of good governance."

Earlier this month, Gen. Paulino Matip accused the SPLA and its commander in chief Salva Kiir Maydrit of plotting against him. He alleged that the attack against his guards was coordinated at the highest level of the Sudan People’s Liberation Army.

Gen. Matip said that President Salva Kiir Mayardit plotted the attack in conjunction with Governor Taban Deng and the SPLA Chief of General Staff Lt-Gen. James Hoth Mai.

  • What is wrong with Unity State. 2% of oil revenue is for the development of the State. It is not to be distributed to villages as Nuer demand. Though you guys conduct meeting aganist the govern Deng Gai, it will not be easy to be remove because he is doing his job. Mr Taban Deng Gai, you have to know that Paulino Matip and Riek Machar are after you because they want you to work as tribalist and to followed their ways which is contradicting to SPLM duties. Thanks

      Why people are crying to dictator to do the job instead the power is meant to be on hands of civilians? everything is obvious that Kiir is nothing, but tribalism and corrupt dinkas from poor dinkas culture. This dictatorship of this dinkas man will never get him to his dream world. Just relax w’re waiting for 2011 to pass and there w’ll start moving into the jungle. I don’t have to blame any dinkas born because such behavious are part of their culture.

          • My Dinka cousins down there,

            When you removed your corrupt governors in Warrap, Lakes and Northern Bahr el Ghazal states, the Nuer in particular and other tribes did not make noises about your own affairs. It was your right as citizens of those states.

            Now what is your business in interfering with the affairs of other states? Does this not show that your leaders have a hand in this Unity state unresolved political differences. What goes around comes around, so get out of here or watch out for the next two months.

          Sir Salva Kiir, Removal of General Taban Deng Gai in Unity State Governor, will be a big Disaster in a unity State administration.

          For some reasons. First of all a state its formed of diversity people. secondly, Taban Deng is appropriate Governor currently, because he is a only civilized person in a state, who doesn’t implement tribalism agenda between Nuer and other communities in a state, which those people who want him to be remove don’t like, they want some body who will divide a lion portion to them, as they were accustomed before during the war, when Paulino Matip use to appointed them through General Omar Bashir.

          They had neglected others communities from power and wealth sharing.

          Those people are tribalism to death, 21 years others communities who are not Nuer face many things which i will not mention it now for a security reason.

          Mr. president, those people who want to remove General Taban are minority, the majority with General Taban as a nationalist leader.

          I would prefer if Dr. Riek was not busy with his current position, he would be better than people who General Paulino Matip wants, or other wise his wife Mrs. Angelina Teny, or John Dhor Majok if he was an SPLM member. Other wise no body would be better than Taban Deng gai, the rest of them are pure tribalism. If you want other communities to be unhappy you will replace him with tribalism person, who people like Rambang, Theileng, and GatBentiu want, but Bentiu will be in an insecurity like other states in south Sudan now.

          Thirdly, your Dupity Paulino Matip want to use his influence like he did during he was in Khartoum.

          I may ask him why he forgot other communities in his time, we should support him today, but he didn’t work for happiness of whole Bentiu, except the community he belong to, as he is not from that community in real, he( Paulino) is from Dinka Abemnum by father, and his cousin now in southern parliament in Juba presenting Abemnum area his name is Zakeria Bol Deng kot, who his father is Paulino Matip Uncle. Paulino Matip father called Nhial Deng Kot, which Paulino Matip doesn.t like to be mention.

          In real Bull and Rweng Abemnum Are brothers for long time ago, but this brotherhood has been ruin by tribalism people like Rambang and Theileng and i remember chief Mantuil Ojang was so eager not to neglect Alor people in Bentiu, after his death his people forgot the way we were lived.

          Mr. president i beg your pardon not to remove General Taban for a Unity state unity.

          • Samuel Kur;

            You seem to be a real citizen of Unity State and deserve to debate with us other Unity State citizens.

            You also seem to be very civil and knowledgeble in your argument.

            I prefer to debate this case with you without using any fault language. Please, see you tomorrow morning, Sudan local time.

            Have a very good night.

            • Rambang Deng, you are really Rambang as your name says; your dad and mom gave you the meaningful name, "valueless person" how dare are you to be so stupid traitor food lover? Don’t forget this we the Dinka Ruweng in Unity State fail your uncle mr. defector Riek Machar; for what he used to call SSIM/A which was very ssim [poisonous] for sure.During his defected in 1991-2001, Riek tried to invaded PANARUU planing that to disconnected NUBA MOUNTAINS with SPLA/M but it did not happened that way from Panaruu people. We are the hammer who crash Riek Machar’s movement to ground up to day; and you know that very well your remains during that war made land fertilize in Panrieng today. That is why Riek don’t like us at all we Dinka Ruweng in Unity State ,Riek sofar his aim now is to discriminated Dinka in Unity State, he doesn’t want Taban Deng Gai because Taban is a man of union and loyalty to SPLM that is a problem period. Riek want to put Nguen Manytuil to be Unity State governor because he is from NCP and that can give him access to defect again like what he did 1991.

              Any readers on this board and Southern Sudanese in general should be alarm for what Riek, and Matip are trying to do, they are looking for the way to defect and this is fact found out by the intelligents on the ground, although Riek machar plott to assassinate Salva Kiir Mayardit to take over power. In 2007 Riek said that SSIM can be a party in South Sudan, then the SPLM told him that well that is okay if you want to be a leader of SSIM party; then you are not going to be Vice president of South because the position you hold is belong to SPLM, so you ought to leave this position and be the leader of SSIM party. When Riek heard that he is going to lose vice position he step down because he knows SSIMM is ground zero and he can not even come close to the top official. So he choose to hang on there hopping for Salva Kiir to leave and after that he will get chance, that what is he waitng for. Riek does not like SPLM. He is staying because there is no way for him, but SPLM is not stupid this is a reason why the remove of governor Taban Deng Gai will not come soon until 2011 like it or not go to hell.

              By Riangnom; the great liberator let the food lovers enjoy something they are not deserve a shame on you.

        • questions

          did nuer removed the arab governor when SAF were in Bentiu?

          why do all Unity State community have to held meeting in Juba than in Bentiu where they wants Deng gai to be removed?

          why Paulino Matib have to be flown to Juba as they seen Juba is a heaven of solving problems of their messes?

          if communities want Gai to be removed, why dont they call for general election or bring someone to challenge him than going with their faces asking Kiir with stupid dumb questions yea we wants Taban to be removed because he is not distributing $$$ to villages, tribes to created instability in Unity State?

          get the hell of Juba and go to Bentiu were u want to removed appointed/qualified gov.

          dont these stupid people learn that Juba is capital of Central Equatoria and they people of State love their governor to death, they dont wants different governor than him.

      • Hi Mr Logic

        It was four-five years ago when a graduate from Makerer University who was employed as our secondary school head master cried in front of more than 2000 students including Equatorials, He said, If I were a Dinka, My life could have been the best. If my Mum was happing sex with Dinka man, I could have try to search for my Dad in Dinka. Do you understand why this guy cried out like a baking dog? because he lack confident, no hope at all and he is a man of blind vision.

        This is the time, I know Equatorial are helpless and useless in Southern Sudan today and forever.

    • These are just the bunch of loosers whom the true SPLM patriotic members shouldn’t listened to them leaves alone the our respected president Kiir Mayardit, whom they even impeached of plotting disarmament of Matip and Riek militia gaurds.

      First of all if the disarmament of militia in the region, then why he Riek and Matip seconded the SPLA army to carry out disarmament to its almight if there is any resistant? Who did these pro-Arab militia leaders and an SPLM/A deputies meant to be disarmed if not including their militiamen gaurds?

      Second, if the former pro-Arab militia leader and an SPLA deputy chief of staffs, Matip Nhial, accused his president Kiir and Hoth for the disarmament of his militiamen gaurds, then why only asked for governor Taban’s removal and not including the removal of Hoth Mai and he Kiir from his presidential? Or are they just starting with the scapegoat governor first and then to be followed with Hoth and president Kiir himself.

      You folks should have talked of gun disarmament if you were really a concerned citizens of Southern Sudan, but not the stupid removal of governor Taban. This governor has more what our Southern Sudan people need from him which included these few but not all; he is nationallist, not corrupted, and most best of all, he is not tribalist as Riek Machar is. We love Governor Taban because he doesn’t hate Dinka nor Nuer which is unlike traitor Riek Machar who recently plotted with Matip Nhial to assessinate president Kiir.

      That thugs’ written letter should have to be discarded to garbage bin by president Kiir because it didn’t asked for Kiir to removed himself with James Hoth.

    • Dear Brothers. Taban Deng is not doing the work for his people ,he is there to implement dinka plan,to divid nuer peopl in the Unity State,like what is happened now in Upper nile they are using commissioners to implement their plan to divid shilluk.Taban must be removed for good, is a prodinka is not working for nuer community but for dinka community.

      reply

      • To: ’Kon Ajith Deng’

        Why do you fool named yourself using dinka names? Are you not ashamed of that alone? Nuer is Nuer and is always determined by how he presents himself. Negative argument will not yield any good either. Develop the sense of being a good citizen by loving all people of Suoth Sudan and don’t confine yourself within the diameter of tribal pattern and all its negative dimensions.

        A warning!!!! Use your own identity instead of that names.

    • ok let say the voice of democracy should be repected despite cmrd Govener, Taban Deng has absolute loyalty to SPLM/A, he deserve big thanks for bringig back Reick Machat to SPLM/A.

      However, if cmrd Gen, Kiir Mayardit removed him then he should do the same thing to Awat Akot in Lakes State because, he had enough.

      in Unity State the groups of Reick Machar will never be silence in this issue, therfore Taban and Awat Akot must go to together.

      reply

      • that is good idea to you those of unity state Taban must be remove because he is playing a rol against nuer community for killing them without reason while he is on the chair as Governor,how come the governor shall have party while he is rulling civilian,remove him,others will comm up.

      however let me go to what you told Dika. THE concern about Unity State problems is a aconcern to all Southern People, not because is State of Nuer according to your mentalty.

      it doesn’t work like that Mr former secretary of South Sudan Independence Mouvement Army (SSIMA)

      lead by Reick Machar and president of coordinating Council of Southerns States, the only gold man with absolute loyalty to hierlning Lam Akol.

      can both of you do that to SPLM/A please

    • Always you can hear Nuers Nyamnyam talks because it involves food and they want the state budget to be distributed to villages, clans, sections and families. That is Nuer’s way Nyam-nyam, nyam-nyam,nyam-nyam.

      reply

    • Taban is not like Taban of 1983-90 when he was a brilliant man where he used to work for all people of south sudan, now he has discovered that his future is only in the hand of president Kiir after the death of Dr Garang because when he looks arround, there is no way for him after Kiir leadership because the next president will be Riek Machar if there is no one shawn up and he is not/will not be in a good partnership with Riek that is why he is creating chaos in the state. Having more than 150 advisors, withdrawing SPLA forces from territory belong to the south, giving 2% oil revenue to states other than Western Upper Nile and his father in the north voted him out by Western Upper Nile citizens. I know changing the governor will not solve all Western Upper Nile problems but will solve some problems teporarily because Nuer have no solid position as they keep changing their attitudes every now and then so let Kiir remove Taban to avoid further clashes which will save the life of innocent civilians and appoint good commander for Division 4 to maintain security because of their wild behaviours people will expect more fighting in future.

    • Mr. Dinka boy or what ever you call yourself, if you don’t know what politic mean, you better keep quite. I can see that u are a very small boy and u better keep your self away from politics. Taban has been playing around in uninty state and many people says it is Kiir who doesen’t want him removed, can you imagine this and yet u call yourself Dinka boy. Do u mean you are also one of the people who are involved in persuading Kiir not to remove Taban?

      We in unity state know very well that Taban has bribed some people with millions of dolars to destroy our state but we will not allow it happen. We will never be back to war this time. We shall resolve our issues politically and humbly this time.

      By no meant Taban will go away from unity state and join whoever loves him if they won’t hate him very soon. you think people are joking when they say he has connection with Arabs.

          • Nyam-Nyam community or confused savages, nuded/naked floor feeders who competes with birds, rats, mices and animals for on floor food called Nuers, we know you hate good leaders and that is your old time Nyam-nyam, nyam-nyam, nyam-nyam ways. Go ahead and fake your masters names. When we were in old Sudan, the arabs thought that their names were easy to carry and easy to pronounce and that is why there were so many Islamized Nuers with the name Hussein such as Hussein Mar.

            Now slaves Nuer are running after the names of their new masters the Dinkas and that is why now every Nuers is changing is name to be called Deng, Gai, Machar and Mabil. Nuers thinks that their masters Dinka names are lighter then their slaves nuers names such as gatluak, thieling and Gatwech.The above names are called Nyam Nyam names.

            Actually, Gov. Taban Deng Gai is the best hope for Unity State, Bentieu and Nuer Bull. He had been there for them during depressing, bad, worst and good times and he is above tribalism. I know him from Itang.

            Because Gov. Deng is not a tribalist, he is hated by tribalists such as Riek Machar, Illiterate crocodile called Primitive Paulino Matip and other unpatriotic tribal minded commentators such as Gatwech, thieling, Kim and Rambang Deng.These are Dinkanized Nuers and that is why the carries Dinka names and they do not want anyone else to share that with them.

            The last time I was in Malakal and Bentieu, I discovered that all Nuers are so thrilled to carry or have Dinka names because they think it is cooled and honorable instead of slaves name such as Gatluak, Gatwech, Thieling. Luak means being a slave in Dinka so gatluak means the son of slave, getwech means man of no or little live and thieling means stealing or thieving so, lets all nuers carry Dinka names it will make them appear more free. Moreover, Dinka names are easy to pronounce and famous unlike Gatwech, Rambang and Thieling.

            President Kiir must keep Gov. Taban and if necessary fire these who are working against him and are using tribal means. The instigators whether they called themselves vice presidents or Generals will pay heavily for this blunder against Gov. Taban. Nuer thugs are alleging that Gov. Deng was voted out and when was gubneratorial elections held in South Sudan? Why Unity state alone? What is so special about unity state that it can have elections while the other nine states governors were appointed by the SPLM? The SPLM CIA and CIA should hunt for these thugs who are instigating this tribal discord and take them out whether they are vice presidents or generals and president Kiir must let some heads rolls.

            Tribal instigators must be handled well, these Nuers who love to set Nuer against themselves must pay highly.

          • Dear My cousins,

            This is not 1900s when you implemented Mr.Abel Alier Deng’s planning of dominating, dividing and ruling us. That time you have posed on us all your agendas and were suceeded. But bear in mind that unicle Garang is dead and Abel Alier is waiting for his time even if he is encouraging you and preaching the hatre day and night. But he will do nothing now. Please, please remember (Khartoum) Haj yusef’s meeting in the early 1980s that sent Dr.Garang to divided and overthrew NYA ANYA II in Bilpam and the same guy (Abel Alier)ruined the Khartoum Peace Agreement. We knew you very well friends, you are not interested in Southern Sudan’s independent since Anya Anya I up to date.You preferred Sudan’s unity most than choosing your own country ’s independent. You are always pointing fingers on other people’s weakness, leaving yourselves out of the line. Anyway your time is very close to an end.

            Whether you like Taban or not, he will go any time.

            Thank you for understanding.

We the RUWENG DINKA PANARUU and ALOOR in Unity State never been assimilated and will never be assimilate in to barbarians society like nuer. What are you mockey youself for idiot ? You don’t even know what are talking about, what do you mean by Jesus of Jews to comes ? You do not know about Bentiu story silly. When Jaafer Nimeri splite up South Sudan in to three States [1] The Great Upper Nile State[2] the Great Bhar ele gazele State [3] the Great Equatoria State, Bentiu was a county that combined Dinka Ruweng and Nuer during that time and Malakal was a capital of Uppr Nlle State. Bentiu was rule by Miakuei de Bilkuei from Dinka Panaruu and his dupty was Tap Liep from Nuer Leek. If I ask you the meaning of Bentiu you can not give me an answer for it. You said we can not march one food lover nuer clan; OOOOOOPPPPSSS by what? population ? you must be kidding me, ask any sons and daughters of nuer in Unity State what happened in the 90s when Riek Machar defect in Nasir. All you mention above nuer clans tried to came to Panaruu included of nuer from old Fangak, but they went back with their noses bleeding. We resisted Riek war until we won it and this is why you are enjoying CPA because of those brave communities you call them coward, we were facing Arab at the same time and facing you nuer; you really so stupid man. If is that what your narrow minds think we will not get governorship then you go to hell; we must regardless other wise this is a invitation of problems. The really men always stand firm.

      That ’s why you frequently exposed your dirty meetings of removing the innocent patriotic loyalist from the governorship. Most of Nuer are doubly zero in their thoughts.

      Look they want to re-betray Southerners who forgave them their worst evens and Riek is now turning this backward politics against citizen. Matiip Nhial, please you are better than Riek for little patriotism I know from you unlike this greed selfish betrayer who used to laugh even if he hears an excretion sounds of anus ! Please leave alone Taban to be the the governor. Do you know in this state of ours, Riek with his wife have hands on this tribalism of endless killing not Kiir or James Houth but Riek him self ! I heard it secretly that he illegally likes Matip’s death so that he works freely with his chosen replacement ie cousin, so how coome !

    • Kim Deng,

      It is Dinka turn to be Governor in Unity State and I do think that Kiir is an anti Dinka tribalist who favored Nyam nyam Nuer against the Dinka. Kiir must remove governer Taban Deng Gai and appoint a good, decent, patriotic, loyal GOV. from the Dinka community in Unity state because it is Dinka turn. Why Kiir is so dump and not listening like this? He should remove Gov. Taban Deng gai now and apoint someone from the Dinka community so that civility and returns to Unity State. This state is shared by the Dinkas and Nyam nyam Nuers and all along Nyam nyam had been apointed by Kiir as Governors and how can a Nyam Nyam lead a human?

      These Nyam nyam called Nuers are so low that they should not even be apointed governors it is too high for them. Gatluak Deng Garang must be changed in Malakal too because it is Dinkas term there and this man who is attempting to copy Dinka name as Taban Deng Gai must also be remove and put in Dinka Ngoks in both places.

      It is good that Nyam nyam Nuers are copying their masters the Dinkas start with names, culture and way of living that is why they have names such as Garang, Deng, Gai, Riak and Mabil. Dinkas and Equatorians, it is your sacred duty to save and civilize Nuer Nyam nyam from its own Nyam nyamism.

    people of Unity, be patient! I agree with your grievance. No leader should be impose on people even if he or she looks like angel. People must choose their leader. That is called Democracy which is one of the major reason we fought for twenty one year. Time is not good for democracy now. Let’s wait. 2011 is near. Be patient.

    Unexceptable please. The above quote is really how they( Nuer) think. How come those troops will be replace only from SPLA side and leave Militia of Matip Nhial. Matip Malitias must be brought to justice first or other Matip Militia will be integrated to all divisions so that they learned military training from SPLA. Thanks

    • As insane as their thought on this issue, I don’t get the underlining to why Taban need to be relieve. The incident was provocative and there was no reason Gen Matip should have a brigade in his compound in Unity State. The Gen should had change his rogue mentality when he joint the SPLA or he would had hold to his militia operation. The Unity State on other hand is running nutts on this case but there is no base to keep stalking. If Gen Matip is likely admired by the people of Unity state, he has to resign as the second man in SPLA and joint the politic of state or shut it off because there is no politic when you are in army. You save both political parties whether you defer with or not. Meddeling in the state affairs while in uniform is a violetion in itself expect when he don’t understand the violetion. This is tasty and more of bad political culture. People have to learn how to reason and rational when making a public descision.

Please that was the mistake for Wani Igga because he deserved that position because he worked for it in SPLM. The defector Riek must have been the third position.

    • These are just the bunch of loosers whom the true SPLM patriotic members shouldn’t listened to them leaves alone the our respected president Kiir Mayardit, whom they even impeached of plotting disarmament of Matip and Riek militia gaurds.

      First of all if the disarmament of militia in the region is bad, then why he Riek and Matip seconded the SPLA army to carry out disarmament to its almight if there is any resistant? Who did these pro-Arab militia leaders and an SPLM/A deputies meant to be disarmed if not including their militiamen gaurds?

      Second, if the former pro-Arab militia leader and an SPLA deputy chief of staffs, Matip Nhial, accused his president Kiir and Hoth for the disarmament of his militiamen gaurds, then why only asked for governor Taban’s removal and not including the removal of Hoth Mai and he Kiir from his presidential? Or are they just starting with the scapegoat governor first and then to be followed with Hoth and president Kiir himself.

      You folks should have talked of gun disarmament if you were really a concerned citizens of Southern Sudan, but not the stupid removal of governor Taban. This governor has more what our Southern Sudan people need from him which included these few but not all; he is nationallist, not corrupted, and most best of all, he is not tribalist as Riek Machar is. We love Governor Taban because he doesn’t hate Dinka nor Nuer which is unlike traitor Riek Machar who recently plotted with Matip Nhial to assessinate president Kiir.

      That thugs’ written letter should have to be discarded to garbage bin by president Kiir because it didn’t asked for Kiir to removed himself with James Hoth.

        You’re so disturb by Mr. Taban losing Unity governorship of that beautiful and rich State call Bentiu/Unitt because you see it as a threat to your King’s throne or lose his chare from 2% of the State. Many governors are/were removed from different States and there was no much concern at all, then why not Mr. Taban if not because your cheap hidden conspiracy against Dr. Riek Machar Teny-Dhurgon and Lion Lt. General Matip Nhial and the Mighty Naath community as a whole is behind your motives?

        The Mighty Naath community detected your cowardice strategy against its interest and as such, the man who fear no man on this earth, Lion Lt. General Matip Nhial was convinced by Naath community not to use force, but shifted his forces to capital city of South Sudan, Juba and deal with your King there by all mean necessary instead.

        Forget about this little poor housekeeper called Mr. Taban because he is leaving Bentiu whether your King like it or not, but you should be worry about your King’s safety since the King of the Jungle moved his forces to Juba.

        Your hatred towards these two heros, Dr. Riek and Lt. General Matip blocked your knowledge to see the fact beyond the reasonable doubt about Mr. Taban who does not only support Dr. Riek Machar’s Nasir declaration of 1991, but he himself was together with Dr. Riek at the time of those dark days.

That all the craps you are trying to lump upon governor Taban merely because you assigned to do so by your jealous traitors will not help to clean shit out of your ass militia.

        Nyagat, those respected states you referred to their governors were reshafled were in different problems unlike to what you barking at governor Taban Unity State now. Why? Because your hatre upon Taban is because you traitors are fear rocked by his inspire good governorship which has let him be like most over Riek Machar who hate Dinka to death and the illitrate militia leader, Matip Nhial.

        Militia, you should be proud of governor Taban of treating every Southern Sudanese with respect and love, if merely you just failed to grabs the downside of his deed that he is now working hard to build a new bridge across tribalism between Dinka and Nuer militia like you dummy Rambang.

        Traitor, Riek Machar have divided Southern Sudanese people along their tribal ethnicities if you don’t know, which governor Taban Deng Gai is working hard with the other respective leaders in the SPLM/A eradicate, so what is the bad heck here again let you hate governor Taban? Please if you have nothing good to say about governor Taban, then shit zipped your assy mouth on him otherwise you will smell shitty shit soon. Got it bastard?

        If you militia folks want governor Taban to be changed by president Kiir, then convene again in your which ever militia leader Riek or Matip Nhial and rewrite or write another leader to president Kiir to remove Taban, Hoth and himself as they are the leaders the militia leader Matip Nhial accused of disarmed his traitor bodygaurds forcefully.

Second, Taban is a known non Nuer which can be used to destablish the Nuerland.

            That is interesting. Kiir is dump I agreed with you the above leaders must be removed and a chance given to original Dinka communities in Upper Nile and unity states because it is Dinka turn or term not nyam nyam any more.

            It is good that nyam nyam Nuers are following their masters to get saved and civilized and that is why all the Nuer nyam nyam is picking Dinka names to feel good and act better.

            Still event if all the Nyam nyam Nuers changed their names to Dinka names, changed their ways of live and culture to Dinkas’ way and have not adopted Dinkas attitude and way of living, the Equatorians and Dinkas must continue to civilize the Nuer nyam nyam to good standards.

It is obvious that if Nuers like a leader, then he bears characteristics of Nuer such as tribalism, rebellion againnst the state, cooperation with Arabs and misuse of resources. Since Taban is against those, that’s why you Nuers don’t like him.

        My advice to GOSS president is that, if you accept this wrong request from NCP workers to remove Governor, please don’t be surprised to see that Unity State is part of the north.

    You cannot just remove a governor because other governors were reshuffled in other states. This ’Community’ is not using any reasonable logic. They have not come up with a single reason why they want the governor removed. Not a single reason. Shame on Riek.

    • The only person whom Nuer can accept an advice is only God not any human being created by God in the world since their colleagues from the South try their level best to advice them with International community to avoid evil acts all the time in their life and they have failed to listen. Last week, the leaders and elders from Nuer community in Unity State proposed that Taban Deng Gai will remain in his post of governor but now thing fall part today. The only problem to our brothers from Nuer is that, they don’t keep their promise as the use to be drive by enemies of peace for these years of struggling in the South. Also Nuer must to know that, the post of governor is not Nuer seat since Unity State has many different communities and GOSS will not listen to one side if others communities have not disagree with governor. The proposal for removing Taban Deng from his seat will come from all communities views not Nuer interest. Second to that, Nuer must to know that Riek Machar and Matip Nhail will take them into scoffs if they will not avoid listening for wrong advice from Riek. I know Unity State Nuer will face the challenges that Lou-Nuer face when Riek mislead them to fought SPLA during struggling if they will not change. Third, GOSS will be consider as a weak government if the listen to individuals interest than public views since Nuer don’t appreciate their true leaders and follow wrong elements who always drive them to death. I disagree with those rejected Taban Deng since GOSS selected him as Southerners leader not Nuer chief and if GOSS agree to remove Taban than second Governor will be elect from different community not Nuer again.

  • Guys what is the problem?

    All of us knows that SPLA/M fought 22 long years to put the most wanted democracy right in its feet specially in South Sudan. And one of the elements in democratic rule is that, the leadership must come from people not from individual, in that connection, if people of Bentiu state rejected Taban for whatever reason, then Taban is simply rejected and therefore he need to be given another job since government have a lot of room as my late hero Dr. Garang put it or let him have private time with his family for a while.

    Please let us not support the darkest side of doing things when the brighter side of the life still shinning in our midst.

    Taban can do other important things in South Sudan instead of forcing him dictatorially in slot that don’t fairly fit his head because that may later on turn dangerious for his own life. The democracy which was exercised in Jongolei must be copied countywide. In Jongolei if we don’t want you regardless of your position, simply means you got to pack your shoes.

All appointees in all positions of power are for political reasons beacuse the president does not want people he sees as threats to have power, which is understandable. The downside to this though, is that we Southern Sudanese shall be the ones who will pay the major price.

People of Unity state should be given responsiblility to exercise theirs right through Lawful mean of discipline. SPLA/M should try others loyal. if there are a lot of problem. or SPLA/M might know something behind this State. Keep him like Awen Akot in Lake State.

      I used to know General Taban Deng when he was a Governor in Itang Refugee Camp. People were outrage there; his Arrival stop all criminal behaviour in the camp. He is a Man of discipline; Law and Order. he like to let busines going well. Might be that is why SPLM keep him. or they did not find some one loyal like Taban to replace him. may be because the state is in the sensitive zone of Sudan oil, militiant against SPLA and closed Arab who explored Extremist Naath Militians. I guest might be why SPLM keep Taban.

      SPLA/M should all of them together and tried others wno are loyal to the SPLA/M. to let the people of the state calm down a bit. General Taban Deng, can do more thing even if he relief there too. There are varies way. He can work at oil revenues where Arab are screwing up SPLM. or can be given Command in the same region or elsewhere in SPLA Division.

      Tribal minded Matiep Nhial needs to be given Adivision somewhere he can find himself with another individual discipline SPLA he never saw theirs Tribe before. If he wanted to be SPLA Loyalist. I don’t know why he is not remove and given different soldiers and spread out all his tribal mind militians.

      Two chioce,join Arab militian or SPLA/M. if not, SPLA should take Action without negotiation. They must surrender,disarmed, integrated According to the SPLA/M Laws. If people like the way Garang using to do,and that how people going to obey the government.

    I understand your point very clearly, but in term of unity state that all of us know, I think we have run out of all our significant alternatives.

    I think the time to think big is at the corner. and we have to choose now.

    I hope you got me perfectly in both ways.

  • Rambang Deng:

    Riek Machar has NEVER been a saviour of anyone.. apart from himself. The central paradox of Dr. Riek Machar and Nasir, was its military alliance with the government- it was a paradox that ultimately cost its leaders their political credibility and destroyed their wretched movement.

    Let’s be honest. Many Nuer who rallied to the Nasir commanders did so because they thought, that now the Nuer would rule, as the Dinka were accused of ruling before.

    The disintegration of Nasir faction was precipitated by the desertions of its representatives and men, en masse. All cited serious shortcomings in the "movement" in their reasons for leaving: the concentration of power in the hands of Riek, the lack of democratic institutions, and the rising level of violence against civilians. By mid-1994 Riek and the Nasir faction had failed to live up to its earlier humanitarian and democratic rhetoric.

    Attempts by some commanders to create their own power bases within the faction had led to fighting between the two largest Nuer groups.

    In 1995, Dr. Riek Machar was the leader of a virtual movement, lacking any real substance or coherence. You should THANK Dr. John Garang for permitting Riek Machar’s return. Where would Riek Machar be, had it not been for Dr. John Garang’s grace? Nowhere! And you all know it.

    Ascribing anything of consequence to a man, who only regained relevance by the virtue of Dr. John Garang’s grace, victory and forgiveness.. is to disregard historical truths, for ahistorical fantasies. Riek’s lasting legacy is the fomenting of civil war among the Nuer, and handling the oil-fields over to the government.

    Do you recall (in 1999) when 80, 000 Nuer civilians were forcibaly removed from the oil-fields by Paulino Matip Nhial, in which they fled to Bahr el Ghazel?

    Do you remember that? Do you remember the humanity and generosity the Dinka displayed?

    For those who attempt to usurp our contribution, and depict us as cowards. You will forever remain permanently arrested in a quagmire of self-destructive hatred.

    Your desperate braying only furthers your humiliation. Meanwhile, here again are the material facts, which enrage you precisely because you cannot find any way to refute them:

    The Dinka constitute the vast majority of the SPLA’s manpower- the manpower which re-captured 90% of southern Sudan, and subsequently expanded the theatre of war to the Nuba mountains, southern Blue Nile, Ignessa Hills and eastern Sudan; without our blood, the CPA would not exist- we will NOT tolerate some begrudged children in their attempts to efface our sacrifice.

    I have tried to promote the spirit of brotherhood, but I can no longer tolerate these incessant, childish and insulting fabrications. Oh, and just to preempt historical revisionist, the Nuer have NEVER transcended the Dinka within the SPLA- Lual Diing Wuol (alone) led a force of over 10, 000 recruits from Aweil on their way to Ethiopia. I say, that blows Gatwech’s 2000 figure out of the water, does it not?

    One minute the SPLA is begrudgedly termed a Dinka army, voraciously consolidating the Dinka ethnicity - and in the other, the Dinka were not present in the SPLA at all.

    Feel free to further entertain us with bizarre excuses for your lies.

      I am bit concerned to ask my leaders to address this problem with candor and decision which the present situation of our nation impels.

      Dear Taban Deng and James Houth you are the kind of people who are made up of both blood of biggest tribe in South Sudan i.e(Dinka and Nuer) that mean you would really benefit from all regions,however I would like to re-guesting you to be loyalists to every tribe and do the will of Southern unity and let’s stop one sided policy.

      Although I am a dinka, I realize that one hand does not clap but two hands do. As brothers we shall peacefully solve the case by allowing Taban Deng a governor because I hadn’t seen negative effects since his governorship only conflicts of clans but it is from every where yet I therefore wish to increase his attentions for security of our citizens in that state.

      Please you all our leaders beginning from Kiir, be united to reserve us a good future in south Sudan and never be fooled by Arab or other bad political influences of separations or else but be one for common enemy. My conclusion is, Let Taban continues his governorship by doing role of law and not the creation of political strategies.

      They said he was Ethiopian just because he studied his studies in Ethiopia till degree level.

      Now remove this governor of Unity state because the people don’t like him if you are really a commited president .

        Political thinkers consider human beings rational.Meaning,they have reason and reasoning ability for not accepting somthing.Because of that rationality they know what is good to them and what is bad to them.This has also been the basis of democracy’s main concept.

        The community of the unity state may be right requesting the removal of governor,TABAN DENG GAI.Put the request of the community in to action.

    • Unity state Community asks South Sudan President to remove Governor Taban 31 October 2009 16:33, by samuel_kur@yahoo.ca

      Because they are corrupted by Jeknydor Nuer and Leu Nuer. plus Bentiu is not belong to them alone " tribalism like you Gartwech" you corrupted our people i didn’t believe at all. Because those people who want to remove Taban they don’t see the future, they just see food for eating"Koan E ro thle e midien". The reason for these noises is just 2% if Taban gave it them now, they will say wah koma me go along. which is mean this government is very nice.

      reply

      • Gatwech, the truth is, Matip should not involve himself in the removal of governor because he is not serving the interest of bentiu people but South Sudan as whole. This request should be made in the absent of Matip and also in Unity state but not in Juba. Another mistake is, the partition is supposed to be signed by the entire community of Unity but not only Nuer.

        Matip is not supposed to involve himself in political activities because is not a politician but army leader. This actually prove how illitrate he is and also how the entire Nuer are uneducated.

    • Unity state Community asks South Sudan President to remove Governor Taban 31 October 2009 18:26, by Angelo Ajiech Manyuat

      Readers, President Kiir should replace Dr. Machar with governor Deng and appoint Machar or Matip as governor in order to fulfill their wishes. I think they just don’t want to see governor Taban Deng Gai being a successful politician while those of Matip and Dr. Machar regarded themselves as failed persons due to their unpopularity amongst Southerners. Or maybe because Taban and Matip are enemies for ages. Their dislike of each other arose when governor Taban discovered that Gen. Matip has been used by arab to kill his own people and authorized oil to be drilled by arab just for his self-interest. Taban as a patriot and rightful governor don’t like that decision and as result fighting broke out between Matip forces and his forces till Taban lost the war and his governorship as well and run away for safety. To make it short, I wish if I were in Kiir position, I could have removed governor Deng in order to stick to the way of democracy, but my understanding or the fact is, they don’t have legitimate complain that convince the president to remove the governor. As according to my personal perspective, I think president Kiir smell something fishy behind this demand and prefer to keep him there till things come to normal with arab.

      On the contrary, president Kiir should understand that democracy is for the people and by the people, I mean he should accept their demand and appoint whoever he think will balance the ticket well and fulfill their interest (Naath/Nuers). I believe Unity state and Western Bahr El Ghazal are now regarded as stable states in terms of development and insecurity that always mind buggling. Readers, If Southerners can to give credits to those who deserve it, then I think these two governors deserve big appreciations and thanks due to their painstakingly work they displayed so far.

  • I do not agree with this request. Replacing Taban with Riek’s wife or Matip will be even worse.The Western Upper Nile State should wait for the upcoming election to choose the one it believes to be its best leader.

    • Actually, Gov. Taban Deng Gai is the best hope for Unity State, Bentieu and Nuer Bull. He had been there for them during depressing, bad, worst and good times and he is above tribalism. I know him from Itang.

      Because Gov. Deng is not a tribalist, he is hated by tribalists such as Riek Machar, Illiterate crocodile called Primitive Paulino Matip and other unpatriotic tribal minded commentators such as Gatwech, thieling, Kim and Rambang Deng.These are Dinkanized Nuers and that is why the carries Dinka names and they do not want anyone else to share that with them.

      The last time I was in Malakal and Bentieu, I discovered that all Nuers are so thrilled to carry or have Dinka names because they think it is cooled and honorable instead of slaves name such as Gatluak, Gatwech, Thieling. Luak means being a slave in Dinka so gatluak means the son of slave, getwech means man of no or little live and thieling means stealing or thieving so, lets all nuers carry Dinka names it will make them appear more free. Moreover, Dinka names are easy to pronounce and famous unlike Gatwech, Rambang and Thieling.

      President Kiir must keep Gov. Taban and if necessary fire these who are working against him and are using tribal means. The instigators whether they called themselves vice presidents or Generals will pay heavily for this blunder against Gov. Taban. Nuer thugs are alleging that Gov. Deng was voted out and when was gubneratorial elections held in South Sudan? Why Unity state alone? What is so special about unity state that it can have elections while the other nine states governors were appointed by the SPLM? The SPLM CIA and CIA should hunt for these thugs who are instigating this tribal discord and take them out whether they are vice presidents or generals and president Kiir must let some heads rolls.

      Tribal instigators must be handled well, these Nuers who love to set Nuer against themselves must pay highly.

Kiir must fired Taban Deng Gai and Gatluak Deng Garang and apoints Dinka governors in Unity state and Upper Nile because it is Dinkas’ terms in these states and Kiir is being advised so and is not listeniing.

          All Nyam nyam governors have ruled and their leadership is so horrible and leadership must be returned to its rightful owners the Dinkas so that civility returns to Unity state and upper Nile state.

          Kiir is an anti Dinka tribalist who wants to elevate Nyam nyam Nuers to positions that they are not qualified to hold.

It has brought decentralized democratic governance in which each and every state in South is ruled by its citizens. But bcos of the failed leadership and corruption, you shamelessly interfere in others affairs only to support traitors who have forgotten the cause of the nation with greed. Dinkas right leader?

      • Raan or late,

        Raan in Dinka means human being and only a dead person called raan(late)because every individuals has his/her own names. You are trying to tell me that you do not understand what I wrote, right? I will repeat so that you understand crystal clear because you are raan which means dead person. It is only that you are a dead man walking. I stated that, I agreed with you and your other Nyam-nyam Nuers thugs such as Gatwech and Thieling that President Kiir must fire or sack Taban Deng Gai and appoint a Dinka because it is Dinka turns in Malakal and Bentieu because these two Nyam Nyam governors Taban Deng Gai and Gatluak Deng Garang have served their Nyam nyam Nuers turns. I have also stated that it is good now that you Nyam nyam nuers are copying the cultures of your new masters the Dinka and that is why you people are counterfeiting Dinka names such as Garang, Deng, Mabil, Machar, Riak and Wal. Next you should not pick from from the floor competing with birds, rats, mice and chickens. You should also start wearing clothes instead of being nude all the times and lastly, stop grindiing using a dug out hole on the floor. It is in-hygienic un healthy and primitive. You have insulted me while I was telling you the truth and did not insult your mother nor did I used the F word. Go a head with your insults but be assured that Kiir is also being advised to fire Taban and Gatluak Deng Garang and replace them with Dinkas since it is Dinkas turns in these states.(Upper Nile and Unity)

Recently but one the so called Pualino Matip was lobbying for his friend Joseph Nguen Manytuil simply because he want mount alot of corruption in the scarce resopurces of the State. No matter how more ranks he has in the SPLA, him and Dr RIak will never succeed in their campaign against this die hard of SPLM (TABAN DENG).Stand firm Mr governor and your people are behind you. All the nine counties ally behind Taban, imagine can you just remove him as you feel like doing so.

      As the people of Unity State, we are calling upon the President of the Government of Southern Sudan to act professionally as a leader and do notlisten to individual claims that are naturally self fish, egocentric in nature.

  • Dear readers! I have a question to those who met at Juba bridge hotel, discussing the removal of Unity state governor, it is said that, they were over three hundred which I could not even believe but, the question, is the Unity state population equivalent to 300 people who met at Juba bridge hotel or nearly to that figure? To me Juba bridge hotel is not the right place to discuss our state affairs; you those who met there need to be rational enough in thinking, if you people want to achieve your own individuals’ interests at the expense of Unity state community is not fair, if you really concern about Unity state rather then your own interest, Unity state has nine Counties which their ideas can not be represented by those who met at Juba bridge hotel, you should go to your own respective counties and agree upon the removal of governor through weight fully accepted reasons, not just because Y and X wanted to come the chair. Don’t forget that, you guys are known for disturbing the peace of Unity state over these two years simply because one of you wanted to be a governor of Unity state and fulfill his own personal interest rather than public interest. You people whether from GOSS, GONU and Government of state, you are all subjected to accountability, don’t see only what Y has not done and forgetting about yourself. Ask yourself about what you have done to the people of Unity state in wherever you are, because you are not there to represent only yourself. Be aware that, the game has almost come to an end, you have all been playing the same game, and there is no reason for you to say Y has not done and you also have not done what you are suppose to do on your own capacity as a leader in wherever you are. But we the concerned citizens of Unity state shall soon reward you individually base on merit and demerit. Those who have done nothing shall be awarded with a zero reward of votes and that will be the only way you shall judge and adjust your own personality. I finally condemn the idea of those we met at Juba bridge hotel, for they can not take any decision on behalf of such a large community in the absent of the community leaders without consent of Unity state population at large.

    Thank you Readers

  • I really sorry for our guys.we are just talking about tribalism each and every single day forgeting what that has done in the past.

    Nonetheless, i would wish to know of the following, the list of the persons in attendance in the meeting with H.E Salva Kiir and who they speak for

    Secondly,supposing Kirr was to remove Governor Taban, what options are avaiable for his replacement

    Thirdly, if they argue that Governor Taban is not popular why not wait for the elections and the campaign for your candidate?? I believe, Governors Taban influence not only in Nuer Land but also in Southern Sudan as a whole is what is scaring the so called community representatives who went to meet the President.

    Fourthly, do you realuze that development does not come at a cheap price and the anormalies that are present in the State have a big hand to play in the politics and development in Unity State.

    Fifth, yes i agree with the community members that salaries have delayed and are deeply in arrears, but Unity State as a whole enjoyed a bumber harvest this season. Contrary to your statements that the food security situation is dire and infact which is not true.

    Sixth, the level at which Development is progressing in Unity State can speak for itself, for instance, in the last one year alone, 23 permanent schools have been completed in all nine counties of the state, several clinics and health centers have been built so far, the security situation in the State has never been better, this i can comfortably state. the only disturbances that were there are from our sister states mainly through cattle rustling.

    Based on the above, i will neither support the removal of Governor Taban but will actually call for the those who wish him removed to prepare the elections, popularise their candidate if they have the will of the Nuer people at heart. let the people speak for themselves and we be ready to accept the verdict there after other than this useless political maligns and other propoganda which are just creating unneccessary tension in Unity State while they are enjoying themsleves in Juba.
